I like how you snuck James Roby and Jamie Lyon in there. |

They have a seperate player of the year award. The Man of steel award is designed for the player that "has made the most impact" for that season therefore Sam is a worthy winner. |

Sensitive souls on here aren't we?
I meant in the UK. However Roby obviously aside, you give Sam Tomkins the standard of coaching and competition week in week out that the players mentioned received and he would easily hold his own and possibly surpass quite a few of them too IMO.
A sublime talent. I pray we don't lose him to Union. |

2 cowards throwing "punches" over the keyboard. Sums them both up.
Now Sammy just needs to turn up in the bigger games. |

See, I would disagree. ST is tough as teak.
He has to be, how many times do we see him hit by a 3-4 man tackle when running the ball in, with players giving him some 'sneaky extras' just cause of who he is? There are times he gets an absolute battering with the ball. In addition his defence at times is astonishing for such a 'slight lad'.
At least Westwood has size on his side. |

Unless things have been deleted, possible, or I can't work twitter, probable, I can't see any 'handbags' on there at all. |

England squad in past |

If James Roby is that great of a player than why is no NRL side after him.
Considering someone put him in the same sentence as some greats from the NRL.

He has put in an awful lot of work over a number of years to be fair, and it's a charity close to his heart. He goes in to see the kids in the local centre fairly regularly. We've all seen what Sam has done this year for JJ and he should be rightly praised for that, along with plenty of others in the RL community. But Danny has supported Mencap for many years and is fully deserving. |

yeah, unfortunatley he will have to do it in Oz to get the recognition , but hes one of the few that would and yeah i agree he would pass a few names on that list , but hes a long way from Slater and Inglis and will be until hes doing against them. |

but thats the point it is NOT based on the whole season is it.
Leeds played 39 games in total this season and IIRC Sinfield played in them all and we won 27 of the games
He also played in 3 trophy finals this season and won the 2 top trophies available.
Far outweighs young Tomkins record IMHO

He IS a great player and should have won Man of Steel by a mile. Has been truly outstanding for Saints. |
