End of season awards/MOS : Tue Oct 04, 2016 6:09 am  

http://www.sportinglife.com/rugby-leagu ... teel-award Clean sweep for Hull; Club, Coach, MOS not bad for a club that just hung on to the CC, finished nowhere in the LLS and didn't make the Grand Final. This confirms the mediocrity that SL now accepts as standard.

Bit unfair that.

Not quite the best team this year over the full season but almost, and certainly the most improved bunch of players and a young British coach too.

Deserve their moment in the spotlight. Well done Hull.

At least we did hang on. Beats blowing a 10-0 lead.

I don't think you can complain about the MOS and Coach awards, with the club award I wish they would leave that until after the Grand Final, it was close running between Hull and Warrington for club team of the year but if Warrington win the Grand Final they would have just edged it.
Also as mentioned in other threads Chris Hill should have been on the short list in place of Ellis perhaps who has only played 21 games against Hill who has played all 30 games.

Surely you won the underachievers award? Again.

Looks like the voting was different this year and the players had a completely free choice who to vote for. So the shortlisted three were decided completely on player votes

So Hull improving from last spot in thew super 8's in 2015, to within a whisker of top spot in 2016 means that their coach doesn't deserve the gong ??
The finished with 24 points last season and improved this to 40 this time around !

Their only failing was not quite being able to clear a Challenge Cup hangover and clearly Radford deserves his prize.

Also, if they are going to give out the prizes before the GF, which club would you give them to.

Houghton MOS again fully deserved and you are being insulting to suggest otherwise.

Maybe you should show some class (which Your coach always does) and congratulate those who have won.
Far from rewarding mediocrity, they seem to have got things about right.

Pathetically negative & bitter OP.
