| Graham should win it on stats alone. I still can't figure out for the life of me how Jamie Peacock got in the dream team over him   |

I stated last week on the Leeds forum that Peacock is going into decline, this more or less confirms it with the short list.
Who ever wins it this year deserve it as they have been prominant in superleague and the icing on the cake is that there is no Leeds player.

It has not been Graham's best season, due to the way Potter has played him, he has not had the same impact and in some matches yes tackling superb but impact runs jaded!

He probably is on the decline, he's 31 after all. But that still doesn't mean he hasn't had a superb season, he still does 60 minutes every week, makes as many yards, tackles and carries as he ever has. Infact I'd say the only part of his game that has declined is his offload game. But he's still one of the elite players in the comp, and reckon he probably will be until he retires. |

I've just checked the stats to confirm what I thought. And Peacock really isnt in decline. |

Hodgson will get it, IMO.
Has it ever been given to a player who hasn't made the Dream Team?
That would seem to exclude Graham - two props deemed to be more worthy of a DT place, so it's difficult to see how can Graham be awarded MOS.
Particularly as one of the DT props are also shortlisted.

Different voters isn't it? For me if any of those three won it I wouldn't complain although I think the two props are the more deserving of the three. |

Why a prop? Brett Hodgson has been immense this year, just how a full back should play, head and shoulders above any full back in this country any way.
If Graham gets it this year it will be a similar situation as to when Roby was awarded it over Barrett!
Daylight Robbery!
Graham has been ominous in parts this year, especially as of late. Where as Hodgson has made Hudds tick week in week out. |

Well because I believe they deserve the award. It doesn't matter whether they played prop or not because I'm basing my assessment on performances not playing position. Graham's record speaks for itself and Morley has been the guy who carried Warrington back into games by leading from the front. His best season over here for me. |
