Consistently good? He's blown hot and cold all year. The last few games he's looked to have tightened up his defence but the return of Joel has helped with that.

You must've been watching different games to me then.

The thing about these Dream Teams etc is that they reward players who stand out from the rest of the team. What if your team is just that - a team that is composed of 17 players each giving their best for the one aim. It seems to me that Wigan haven't been given much credit this season.

I wouldn't swap Josh Charnley for example for anyone and yet Makinson, Carney & Hall have all been given these accolades. Charnley and Monaghan are far and away the best wingers in Super League. Hall did well in the CC final - but that doesn't count for Super League.

The media's obsession with Leeds continues. How on earth Sutcliffe gets a look in for YPOTY over Joe Burgess or John Bateman is beyond me.

Does it count brain farts per match?

Only those by the journalists.
