Man of steel : Mon Sep 24, 2018 10:54 am  

Who do we think will be crowned this years man of steel? I can’t say anywone has stood out enough for the duration of the season so with that in mind, I am going to say James Roby or Paul McShane.

Remi Casty for me. A true man of steel inspirational in Catalans reversal of fortunes this year.

I'm not sure what the criteria is. Most durable? Most influential? Hardest? Can anyone help?

Tony Gigot or Josh McCrone, every year someone from one of the M62 clubs wins it, it needs to go abroad like the challenge cup did so the sport doesn't die.

They need to change how they pick the candidates and winner.

Adopt the same system as Dally M in Australia where points are awarded on a weekly basis. This way you will see a fairer representation of players who are deemed to have performed over the whole season.

This is a good idea as long as it is implemented properly. I know league express used to do something similar but in the year when Trent Barrett came runner up to the legendary James Roby, I think League express had, based on their system someone like Ade Gardner as their player of the year. I stopped buying League express shortly after

Top 3 candidates IMO (in any order) Bill Tupou, James Roby, John Bateman.

So your selection would be based on geography rather than performance.
