Hi Cas fans, just a word up on controversial musings by Phil Kinsella who sometimes commentates on your matches this side of the Pennines, when not required by radio Manchester or Merseyside. On rugby league extra on radio Manchester last Thursday he made the extraordinary comment that the Man of Steel award this season because of a 'media conspiracy' will go to either Gale or Eden, rather than his preferred choice of Salford's MUrdoch-Masilla. Anybody know what he is going on about?

At a guess: nobody else in the RL media shares his opinion and won't be voting the way he'd like them to – therefore it's a conspiracy. And because they, like him, work in the media, it's a "media conspiracy'.

Shock

but to add: I follow him on Twitter – and he's not said anything there on the subject, that I've noticed
