Agree there needs to be a clear line between the 2.

Hard to argue with Toolis for his workrate, Cochrane is not a bad shout.

Sorry but Hoyland and Kinghorn should not be on the shortlist, this is not an award for girls!

That's a bit harsh :o
Neither deserve it this year but I can see Kinghorn being a contender in a few years time.

Not at all, its not a player of the year award.

To me it is for the players who do the hard yards, the dark stuff and get little or no credit. Hoyland and Kinghorn do a lot of good stuff but it is mainly fancy dan white boot wearing stuff. Not something Chunk would approve of!

Although Kinghorn did get stuck in vs La Roch at the end which is to be commended.

We can do without the casual sexism, though, can't we?

..... but an unofficial nomination is winning the unofficial poll by a country mile. (Accepting the small sample size thus far). Discuss!
Bill Mata. The second coming?

Toolis plays 500 games on the trot and isn't even nominated? That's ridiculous.

Nel and Dicko? They've hardly been on the pitch!
Don't mention Rory Hutton. I did once but I think I got away with it.

Stewards enquiry needed.

think this bit got lost in last years vote and is why Nel Dicko included this year....Toolis should probably still be there though
