Quite easily considering he is the most skillful player in SL in my eyes.

Yeah so woeful we finished one game short of being in the top 8.
And so woeful we were 4 mins from a CC final

If Monaghan goes on to help Warrington win the Grand Final then it will make a mokery of him being excluded.

Chase will win the MOS. Tomkins "V" sign has cost him the prize this year. Roby has been outstanding also but I agree about Monaghan not been included. Strange .

Wouldn't argue if he did win it mate.

He is a class act,simple really.

Agreed and hope that's the case regarding Tomkins, undoubted talent and I enjoy watching him when he's really in the mood but that gesture on national tv should cost him the man of steel.

chase for me....a cracking player !!

9th is nothing to be proud of. And without Chase, you'd probably have finished a lot lower.

Chase has been outstanding this year, he has scored and created tries from nothing.

probably so. But he is apart of Classy Cas. Should we not of lost one of the competition's form forwards at the time, we'd have probably finished a lot higher. Very harsh to call our team woeful, especially when there's many a youngster involved with it, young players who'll more then likely be brandished at international level in years to come. I don't expect you to admit to being a tw@ though, see as you have some bizarre hatred of Cas.

3 worthy winners, Tonkins just shades it for me.

Not really, I love going to Castleford, and I bet not many people would say that. You'll be a better side next year I reckon. Just need to get rid of McGoldrick now.

I hate driving long distances, so I generally let others do the driving or use the train. But If you lot wanted McGoldrick, and he needed a ride, I would be outside his house, with a print off from AA Route Planner, with the directions for London, ready to take him there myself within 10 minutes.

Personally don't get all the hype around Chase. Has some good games but is appalling in others and plays to his own game plan often to the detrement of the team. Hasn't done enough this year to even get a nomination IMO.

Out of the 3 I'd have to go with Tomkins although his form has dipped towards the end of the season. I thought Monaghan would have had a shout at it personally.

For consistency throughout the whole season, workrate & ability to be at the heart of everything his side do, Roby for me.

Well he's certainly consistent.

778 scoots, averaging 29 - yes, 29! - a game! The next highest total was 371...

I Vote for chase, but ratboy will win it

Missing the hype around Chase, I've seen him put in some good set pieces but he's fairly predictable and he bottled the DG attempt which should have seen Cas in the CC final.

It's just Danny Orr all over again; stands out in a bad team but is terrible in a half way decent one.

So far the poll goes to show how close it is to call. Biased me says Robes, i personally dislike Tomkins but deeply respect him as a rugby player. Chase has carried a poor team into meritocracy almost single-handedly. All deserve the credit, shame for the two that don't win.

I dont remember orr ever being a terrible player, he looked very average at wigan because they tried to use him as a different style of player than he actually was (a bit like how they tried to use moran as an organiser). Leaving wigan was the best thing he could have done as he was allowed to play his natural game again.

Theres also the flip side of the argument would tompkins look as good in say the quins or wakey sides of this year having to get through more defensive work, be under more pressure, have less quality players around him and have less space to operate in? probably not.

Orr was above average when he was down at Quins.

Agreed.

Don't forget Roby's steely defense as well, made 1032 tackles, averaging over 40 tackles a game, despite being injured for 25% of the season.

He's missed 1 SL game, how does that equal 25% of the season?

Whose said he's missed any games, he's played about 5 or 6 games with 3 specific injuries we know of. Man of Steel stuff.

Stop stalking with triviality.
