The oaf element seemed to increase when Leeds United dropped out of the top flight and went into free fall.

After my first post opening these pages I have decided to cast my vote for Kevin Sinfield. Like him or not (not in my case) a vote for him is a vote for Rugby League. After watching the video of Johnny Wilkinson and Paul Scholes who are voting for him I have had a rethink and looking back through the SPOTY archives cannot remember a Rugby League player receiving a nomination, which in my humble opinion is a disgrace so Mr. Sinfield you have my vote, not specifically for you but for the grat game of Rugby League.

Exactly stevie you are voting for rugby league, imagine if he won most of them at the BBC will be lost for words!!!

I'd like to see him win SPOTY and then be a guest on The One Show in the new year. It'd blow Alex Jones' half-witted mind that such a sport exists. In fact half-witted is an insult to halfwits, she's more of a quarterwit.

Hamilton won the awards last year with less votes than Kev... Thanks to everyone who voted.
