BJB is unlucky to be third behind those two.
Fifita is have put in but as said the Hull lads have a case too.
SOL just shouldn't be in.
The rest I'm ok with.

Who picks the dream team? Whoever picked sick note SOL and BMM over Ashurst?

Re: Hated, adored, often ignored : Mon Sep 25, 2017 4:19 pm  

Personally I'd have Ashurst over BMM. BJB has been really unlucky but I can see why Eden and Fonua have made the side.

SOL and the Huddersfield prop though are just ridiculous choices. Walmsley/fifita are far better players that's before you consider hulls props.

Keep ignoring us and not coming after our players

I can see why BMM has been picked - despite having less impressive stats than MA, what he does do is usually spectacular and grabs attention. MA is a quiet achiever.

I totally agree about forwards though - Walmsley is the best prop in SL by a country mile - it's mad that he's not included!

In the super 8's I presume you mean. To be fair the collective strength is what got Trinity to 5th rather than outstanding individuals. Fifita perhaps unlucky not to be in over the Farts prop and O'Loughlin is a strange one.

This for me. The O'loughlin selection is as strange as the many accolades he gets from various screen experts. He obviously has talents but has as many cheap shots in his armoury.

O'loughlin seems to get the best of the team when he plays so you can't knock him there, throw another players name in Topou

His ability to motivate is his obvious talent I suppose, but I just don't know how he made the 'dream team'
That said, who gives a monkeys anyway. Not me.

I think a few of your lads would have had a shout. BJB probably would be my third choice (Fonua last season in this country and has carried Hull at times and well you cant leave out the top try scorer)
I like Ashurst and would have him over BMM who has done nothing really the last 10 or so rounds.
Finn been great all year but unfortunate that Gale has been immense from game 1.
The rest probably cant argue with.

The Dream Team is selected by a vote by journalists. I think Wakey have been a bit unlucky but can't see how BJB should have been in there - from what I've seen he still seems to be inconsistent to me and prone to absolute shockers, but I don't see every game so maybe it was just the ones I saw.
