2019 Rookie of the Year

[King hit]

Garrick has had an outstanding rookie year and wouldn't be out of place

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Haas has got daylight behind him in the real world but watch Papanhauzen get it.

 

[Panther_Daz]

Haas just ahead of Sivo.

Nikora and Garrick have gone well too.

 

[nick87]

Probably Corey Horsbough slight ahead of Bailey Simmonsen and Hudson Young.

Haas and Sivo would round out my top 5

Sebastian Kris and Tom Starling very unlucky.

Sebastian Kris and Tom Starling very unlucky.

I had them 6th and 9th respectively in my top 10.

Major Payne

Over the last two months he's averaged 204m per game.

 

[Bring back John Fifita]

Seems Payne Haas has this covered in here, although admittedly I've not watched many broncos games to see him go.

Of the ones I've seen a bit of.

Papanhauzen and Garrick (good call @Cumberland Throw ) are standouts.

The other guy who I've only seen twice who's absolutely in my mind front and centre (pun not intended) is Justin Olam for the Melbourne Storm. Geez I'd love to have him in a Dragons Jersey.

 

[Big Pete]

Payne Haas.

I can't remember a rookie forward churning out his kind of numbers so consistently. Not only is his work-rate phenomenal, but he's producing a lot of 1%ers that don't show up on the stats sheet. Cleaning up kicks, saving tries and the like.

Not only is he rookie of the season, but it may rate right up there with Menzies in terms of mastery.

Anyone winning it over Haas would be worse then when cutie won it over SBW

He's the kind of player that would be completely underutilised under any other coach.

That Munster-Bromwich-Olam-JAC edge is destroying teams. Bellamy just moves on from one good player to the next.

SBW missed more than half the regular season and was a bench player for the majority of it. It's actually a testament to his ability that it was considered so close, but Hunt playing the entire season and playing well beyond his years gave him the edge.

 

[hineyrulz]

Kallum Watkins has to be a walk up start for this.

Kallum Watkins has to be a walk up start for this.

C'mon he's not fit to not hold Bateman's beer. Gee that's a tough sentence to construct.

 

[mozza91]

Kallum Watkins has to be a walk up start for this.

Maybe give him some sort of fair play award?

Doesn’t resort to hurting other players feelings by tackling them.

 

[Mr Angry]

Fine crop this year.

Ours Nikora, Xerri, Uele, BBrailey, Mulitano.

Do they decide by how many Dally M points they get?

Haas has been awesome.

 

[Mr Angry]

Are suspended players considered?

 

[Perth Tiger]

He's the kind of player that would be completely underutilised under any other coach.

That Munster-Bromwich-Olam-JAC edge is destroying teams. Bellamy just moves on from one good player to the next.

It goes to show that there is plenty of playing talent for 18 or even 20 teams. What the NRL are sorely lacking is coaching talent

 

[TIGER14]

Sivo gets it after tonight

Sivo gets it after tonight

Fmd, he's good - game-changer!
