Rookie of the Year

[MSIH]

8 pages later and people still haven't realised that Travis Burns didn't qualify because he came on as a replacement last year..

I can just hear it now...oooooooohhh!!! that's right.;-) :lol:

Pretty sure you're still eligible if you played a couple of games off the bench the year before. Well it used to be the case. Why don't they make the criteria clear?

I thought games off the bench didn't matter Eelavation????

Guess im wrong

not sure?

I thought Burns played one game starting last year, could be wrong. Maybe the reason he wasnt a contender.

I heard it mentioned about a week ago by Gibbsy [I think] on 2UE

Na, definately off the bench against Penrith last year at Penrith.

Stupid rule. But it must be the case, I mean Greg Eastwood :lol: .

Greg Eastwood played one game off the bench in Round 26. :? I dont know why Burns wasnt nominated, he's played every game hasnt he?

Maybe because Eastwood was picked for the NZL team for the GB game, but of course didnt play cause of injury

Eastwood has also played one game before this season - looks like Travis was rated by the judges. Must be the same people who select the rep sides ! Too lazy to think about who really deserves the award.
