Briscoe is very solid defensively - but Hodgson being dodgy under the high ball?! I think I've seen him miss about 3 all season, and even then recovered afterwards. I'd be surprised if he wasn't the best full back under a bomb in SL. His positional play is second to none.

Morley for me, he's been immense this season. He turns up every week and always puts a performance in, he's proved he can do it not only here but in Oz aswell.

I do however think Hodgson's had a great season and will push him very close, he's been instrumental to the giants.

I always think MOS should be a big hard hitting enforcer type player, therefore it would stand that it would go to Morley or Graham (I'd go with Moz).

Hodgeson has been pivotal in Hudds upturn in form, similar to Dobbo for us but I don't see a play makers like Hodgeson (or Dobbo) as living up to the term man of steel.

Or am I wrong and its just a fancy term for players player of the year..

Its probably the latter. The name does make it sound like the former though. Why dont they just call it players player?

Me too. You mean it shouldn't go to the like of James Roby?

Morley gets my vote, though I did predict mid-way through the season Hodgson would win it, he single handedly ripped us apart at Craven Park on Bank Holiday Monday.
