Great season by the Cows considering where they were last year. This team will only get stronger and they should be a force for the next few years. Guys like Cotter, Nanai, Dearden, Drinkwater, Hammer are all headed for stardom and if this group can stick together, they should give themselves...
Cowboys are favourites and are playing at home and also finished higher in the standings and have had two weeks rest. An Eels loss wouldn't be considered a "choke".
ARey played 20 games which is more than enough. He would have been my pick but being as he wasn't, Payne was the only other logical choice. The likes of Paddy and Herbie are probably more valuable to the club but unfortunately, they didn't make enough appearances.
Most consistent isn't a major award though but they have to give him something as one of the better players on the team. I thought Billy would win this one.
Patty missed 10 games. Pretty difficult to receive a major award when you are absent for an elongated part of the season. Haas deserves it because there is simply nobody else except for maybe Capewell who could take out the MVP.
I highly doubt Kevie texted Gordie and asked him to "go after" Ikin. Gordie wasn't critical of him anyways. He just outlined what he perceives as Ikin's job description.
These are dangerous games though and dissension in the ranks is never healthy for a club. Someone's head could roll for...
It creates too many stoppages along with all the other reasons a pause in play can occur. It's taking away from the fabric of the game. Rugby League is supposed to be a free flowing game where the big forwards get tired and the little backs eventually run amok. The sport is nothing like this atm.
That means Staggs will have had a knee recon and a shoulder recon by the age of 24. Rugby League is a tough gig as we all know. That's why you'll never see me protesting the amount of money these players earn. Considering that they play the toughest sport in the world, they really make **** all.
Dearden certainly doesn't regret it. Kevvie did the right thing as he didn't have immediate plans for him. It's hard to keep someone around who doesn't want to be there.
