Lockyer deserved it, and to suggest Wesser deserved it, would be like Chris Anderson saying Kimmorley deserved it!

And to the person who asked if it was the footy show award, the "World (note that word Wesser fans) Golden Boot Award" has been around for just a little bit longer than the not so "footy show".

Thats a silly thing to say. Comparing probably the most dangerous player in the game in 2003 to a player that put in 2 good games.

I dont think 2003 was Lockyers best season. At time I think he struggled carrying a poor Broncos side.

He was brilliant for QLD....but for Aus and the Broncos he just wasnt his same old world beating self all the time.

Wesser was. Wesser looked like a world beater from the first game of 2003 to his last.

Why doesnt Wesser deserve the award?

You cant point to his form. It was as good if not better then anyone else in the game this season.

You cant possible blame the lack of representation. After all between Chris Anderson and Wayne Bennetts stupid selection policies....great player can be left on the sideline no matter how well they are playing.

Thats fair enough if people dont think Wesser played as well as Lockyer. I think he did, but then Lockyer had ALOT more to cope with then Wesser. lets face it, Lockyer carried a poor Broncos side and was the ONLY thing QLD had going for them in the Origin series.

Still I think over all the form player of 2003 was Wesser.
