Sam done himself no favours last weekend with his antics already had the award sewn up as well!!

Benny westwood not played for several weeks has fell out of the running as well.

Mike Monas could still be in with a shout for the title in my book!!
Any other players stood out for you,or will the winner be taking part in the Warrington v Wigan game on Sunday??

Sam
Rangi
James

Jiffy in 94' was the last Warrington player to win it. Before that it was Ken Kelly in 81'

This years award will be tarnished if (When) Tomkins gets it. I'd have voted for Monas ahead of Roby but hey...

I think Rangi Chase would get my vote.

What are the odds on Jeff Lima

(Note for John Kear: its jeff not Danny)

If we finish top of SL; Monas.

i'm thinking since its player voted, sam might get the sympathy vote now.

Not sure about that. Can't see any of the Leeds squad giving him the vote.

must be rangi, playing like that with an average side. I could play well for Wigan and warrington.

Roby, without him Saints would be as good as Hull FC in terms of league position plus he plays at 100% even when he's injured. This guy will be knackered when ne retires.

Its Sam.

The players vote and contrary to the beliefs of every fan except wigan fans he is actually liked by all the players off the field

Todays made up fact...

Thinks everyone should give @samtomkins1 a break, stop being jealous B*STARDS! If he played for ur team use all wud love him!

What YED said, fred!

wtf is shaun lunt anyway?

So just to put this into context...Shaun Lunt says the above and you then go onto say ALL players love Sam

you really are a total doughnut

The fact players from ALL teams came out and condemned the booing fans shows you the support Sam has from other players. They are voting for his playing skill not his personality. This isn't man of personality
Take of your wire tinted glasses and admire him for the player he is
There are a few wire players I admire and am not embarrassed to say so.
He did one stupid thing and you all think the rest of his season should be written off. Did you say the same about Briers when he did his 1 fingered salute to the cameras last year? no neither did I

ok i'll take this one.


Can you please inform me which match last year lee briers did his one fingered salute?

Ooops sorry it wasn't last year ... It was aces years ago. I was thinking of smith for Leeds when he jumped on a speaker ( I think) and did it to Wigan fans

Wasn't it in 2006?....

FWIW I think both Briers and Tomkins should have got a 1-match ban for that. It's unsportsman-like and negative to the game.

I don't think Tomkins should be Man of Steel as, regardless of his undeniable talent, he still insists on letting niggly, cheating play be a part of his game. You don't see other young talents like Charnley doing that, yet he's not raved about anywhere near as much. Charnley is proof that you can be a cracking young player and not be a complete w**ker on the field.



Because Shaun Lunt clearly represents every player from every team

exactly, so put your knee jerky soapbox away and bugger off.

..it's a forum and I will post what I want
So I made a mistake ... I admitted I was wrong.....I bet your one of those who wanted Sam Tomkins hung then flogged .

Let nobody ever accuse a Wigan fan of being melodramatic...
