Just read that James Roby has been awarded the Man of Steel. Great to see
such a young player being selected for the top award. Well done James.

What a ***ing joke and yet another glaring example of an award being handed
out which demonstrates the utter dearth of talent in Super League.

James Roby is nothing more than an impact player off the bench when the
opposition are tiring.

It's about time this MoS award was scrapped as the list of winners in recent
years are an embarrassment.

No need for language like that, Jeff.
I don't see why Wellens (last years winner) was an embarrassment,
showing a dearth of talent, nor Lyon the year before. I personally would
have given it to Wellens again, but at least the over-rated Aussie Trent
"will tear you apart" Barratt didn't win.

I'd have given it to Jamie Jones Buchanan for that beard.

Trent was robbed. Was rightly awarded everything else under the
sun.....
