2020 Player of the year. : Thu Nov 19, 2020 10:39 am
Now that our season is over just wondering who fans player of the year are ?For me I'd go with
1st- Luke Gale
2nd- Mikolaj Oledzki
3rd- Ash Handley
I think Gale has turned our team around not by himself but definitely with his leadership and organisation in our attack, I'd still say we're not the finished article but we have looked miles better than last couple of seasons especially our kicking game and attack in opposition 20 and I do feel this is down to Galeneing on our halves. He has also turned up in games when we've needed him to come up with a big play obviously the drop goal to win the Challenge Cup and the 2 drop goals he knocked over against Huddersfield for our 2 league wins over them. Oldezki has been our most improved player in 2020 come on leaps and bounds with great carries and solid defence really deserve his new contract and place in our 17 match day squad. Finally Ash Handley just proves he's a natural born try scorer last couple of seasons been in and around top try scorer at end of super league, also finishes off tries when we need him to he might not be a flashy finisher like T.Johnstone or NRL wingers but he works hard to get over try line and I also think he has plenty of pace as well. He also does hard things wingers have to do like get us on front foot from a kick return and make yardage at start of sets.
Other stand outs for us this year have been Prior, Myler, Newman.
Prior has stiffened our defence up and he does the really little and professional things well been a good signing for us for me, Myler has been great full back and provides us with cover at in spine positions and before his Injury Newman was looking really good hope he recovers for 2021 season well.
