Having looked at the league table this year and seeing how we have won more games than we have lost, I'd pose the question do we really need Hansen at all?

It should be. I've said on the Saints site that if the Man of Steel was voted for now he would be a shoe in.

He's certainly been superleagues best player to date but it is a long season. He'll be in and around the dream team for sure though.

The lad is just a natural rugby player. He puts himself in the right place over and over again and just doesn't have bad games. Until recently he was the first young forward in a few years that I'd seen come in to our team and straight away make me think 'future international'.

I say until recently because Greg Burke has it written all over him IMO. He plays (and looks) like a 200 game pro.

Burke has a thicker beard than me and I'm twice his age !!

If there is a Wigan player for MoS this year then for me it has to be Lockers. Faz is playing great but IMO it is Lockers who is not only doing that but also holding the team together in the face if a lot of injuries. He played minus about three ribs v Saints.

This. no question.
