Keep trying my friend.

Was Moz nominated? Peacock was.
Candidates are identified by public or private bodies, by government departments or are nominated by members of the public.

I would prefer it to be called the Order of Lenin then we could see who got honours for service to the great fatherland and it would not be associated with monarchy and imperialism. Actually I wouldn't be surprised if Kevin Sinfield has been nominated for an award and turned it down being as he is a supporter of Che Guevara and all that. On the letter telling them that they are nominated it requests them politely that if they don't want it, not to draw publicity to the fact they are turning it down which is why you don't hear about it. Otherwise I'd be sally cinnamon MBE for services to internet forums.

Adrian Morley great RL player for Leeds also .He won a SL GF as a guest player when Bradford broke the cap.We dont really want to go into a MEASURING CONTEST do we ?we all leave that the the unmentionable forum.If Mozza had been awarded a MBE I would have been delighted for him his family and the sport.There has been speculation among the Leeds fans about Kevin Sinfield ,If he was awarded an Empire medal wether he would accept or politely refuse because of his thought to be left wing socialist political beliefs.

some bloke plays 4 good rounds of golf (waste of a good walk) and gets honoured. I have been unbeaten in our house at Wii Bowling for 4 years & i get nothing. Where is the justice in this world

He got awarded for services to RL! not for 4 games when he regained his match fitness ,but I did say we dont want to get into a measuring contest,but if you take a look at his record he is the most succesful player in the SL era,then again I think i'm correct in thinking Garry Schoefield also got a similar award for services to the game and he didnt win very much

yea.... Rory Mcilroy has been great for RL hasnt he.

Leeds fan in 'I'm confused' shocker.

And if you really look through that list then you'll realise that there are [inot[/i many 'normal' people.

How about "Henry George Victor John Crichton Erne. The Earl of, Lord-Lieutenant of County Fermanagh".

I misread the post Ithought it was going back to the earlier one implying that Peacock got awarded an mbe for 4 matches,sorry,but I have stated lets not get into a measuring contest there is a forum that does that down at the bottom.I reiterate If Adrian Morley had been awarde an medal I would have been delighted

Convicted fraudster Gerald Ronson has been given a CBE. Literally incredible.

Don't worry Wire fans Moran will just go buy him one next year. Just don't forget to show up because too much time was put into planning the tica-tape parade

Too many toys out of the pram on this one.

Peacock. Top player. Tons of medals. Conducts himself with dignity (most of the time). Does he deserve a gong? Course he does.

Sinfield, Morley have a similar cV. Will they get a gong? Hopefully.

ATEOTD, you can't give everyone a gong, who's acheived a lot, in our game. There aren't THAT many to start with (who have been given one).

On the broader issue of gongs and their relevance. Of course they are relevant. They indicate achievement/people who have contributed to society/charity. It's only a few letters after someone's name. Too many knickers in twists for my money.

Colin Welland said it best about Brian Bevan (from his unveiling of Bev's statue speech think)

(Roughly)"If he was a footballer he would have recieved an MBE, If he was a cricketer he would have been Knighted, he was neither, he was a Rugby League player so recieved nothing."



to be honest the honours list means nothing to me, I know very little of the people given the letters.....and even less about why they deserve them. its on a par with the BBC sports personality of the year

anyway so many dicks and nobs are knighted obe'd cbe'd and mbe'd it seems an honour to be missed out these days...

I am led to believe that you have to be nominated,and the nomitator actually asked Sinfield ,but due to his socialist politics he politely Refused

I think to see our players get more honours the profile of our great game needs a shot in the arm ,as follows...

Eddie & Stevo could start calling each other "darling"

Ganson could address the video ref as "dear boy" when asking for the grounding to be checked

After match interviews...the players could deliver Shakesperian speeches as to why their team won or lost. This could be done for better effect with the players holding a cigarette holder in one hand & a G&T in the other.

Challenge Cup Final to be played in the West End with all supporters in full evening dress .

Grand Final...Get Andrew Lloyd Webber do it as a Broadway musical.

I am sure we would soon get some knighthoods for our players.

excellent

Jamie Peacock delivering the highlighted would surely break so many laws of science it would inevitably cause the world to implode. Although it would make for an extremely hilarious last couple of minutes on this earth.

Chuck Norris would school him on how to do this, and bend light.

This thread is a great advert for the Headingley South Stand.

Actually apart from his west Leeds/Bramley accent he is reputed to be a wellread bloke with a good degree of intellect,but he does sound like he plays darts n doms for the Half way house in Stanningley

No not at all ,but THE SOUTHSTAND YES

At the end of the day Moz has not done much at international level, whereas Peacock has shown that British bulldog spirit, obviously recognised in more ways than one by people who matter.
