| Mostly as expected.
Hand on heart I think we'd struggle to have an individual in that team.
Fifita maybe but it would be hard to put him above walmsley or a couple of the Hull props, who aren't in either.
Centre is quite a weak area and Bill Tupou may have had a chance if he played all season like he did in the last 10 games.
SOL is a great player but looks like all he has to do is turn up to get nominated.

| The Dream Team is selected by a vote by journalists. I think Wakey have been a bit unlucky but can't see how BJB should have been in there - from what I've seen he still seems to be inconsistent to me and prone to absolute shockers, but I don't see every game so maybe it was just the ones I saw.

| Tbf to BJB at one point I'd agree about his inconsistancy etc, but this year he's been very good for us. Also compared to Fonua he's made less errors 31 to 37 and given away less pens 7 to 14 but the main thing is he's scored 20 tries to 11. Anyway BJB and Fonua are different types of players and both offer something different to the other.
Like others have said in the grand scheme of things it matters little. it woud have been great personally for whichever player got in, but like someone else mentioned, I'd prefer Trinity's best players to go a little unnoticed.

| The dream team means nothing. It's just a publicity thing.
SOL is in because he's the England captain. I've seen people throw stats about left right and centre, it's generally irrelevant.
Walmsley is the biggest omission for me, and I don't see how BJB was overlooked from your point of view.
I see your point with Fifita, but Walmsley is miles in front of everyone.
Not seen enough of the Huddersfield prop to really comment.
The rest of it seems fair enough.
As a cas fan I'd argue Webster has been better than percival AND Shenton, although again, he's not a fashionable choice. I'd probably say he same for Ashurst. Just a little unfashionable. Which again, is all it really boils down to.
Murdoch Masila was great for about a third of the season. He's vanished into anonymity since about a month before the middle 8s

| Would have had Walmsley in based on statistics for the season but Ikahihifo is absolutely brilliant. Would have him at Wakey any day over pretty much anyone in our squad.

It may mean nothing, but it's good publicity, and good publicity is good for any club, especially the smaller and unfashionable ones
