Sam Tomkins
Rangi Chase
James Roby

Should be Roby but it will be Vomkins

Happy enough for any of them to win, but my vote would be Tomkins. The bloke is a freak and can rip you apart in just a couple of plays. He also does a lot of the small things right which people often overlook.

Agree. Have read people saying he was quiet on Sunday, but I thought his kicking and passing game was very good indeed.

Yep. Got involved at 1st receiver a lot in Deacon's absence too, which gave us plenty of options further down the chain.

Menzies has had a awesome year. Bradford must be kicking theirselves letting him go

Isn't that the Bradford way, having a good season at the Bulls is a sure fire way of not playing for them the season after, for this season see Raynor and Lynch

Menzies would have to win a proper man of steel award....but unfortunately he wont get anywhere near what is now just a most skillful player award !

It should be Roby, but the media circle-jerk that ensues every time Tomkins touches the ball will see it go to him.

Shame really, given the fact that Roby does everything we all know he does, whilst conducting himself with dignity, respect and professionalism.

You obviously missed the part where it's voted for by the players. You know his peers, them that know much more about the game than you ever will and would know who does and doesn't play professionally, with respect and dignity.

IMO Roby has been the most consistent of the 3 this season, and the stats showing 5000 metres with the ball and over 1000 tackles speak for themselves...a phenomenal effort from any individual player

Tomkins and Chase have both been classy acts in their respective teams and have ripped plenty of teams to shreds, however as an all round player Roby has been the stand out performer of the 3 for me

Roby is also the best looking and well spoken of the three so would clearly be a better role model for the sport.

Rangi always looks like he's just drank a gallon of pure caffeine

No, I didn't miss that, but I'm also aware of the phenomenon of the self-fulfilling prophecy.

Either way, the point stands - of the three, I believe that Roby deserves to be recognised.
