Quote ="Ruddy Duck"How on earth can John Bateman not be on the short list.
Even with eight week internal club suspension, he has still been the most outstanding player of the season.
But that the RFL for you, as proved by their choice of a winner in past seasons.'"
I think he bottled it with his discipline and suspension, Bateman is ultra competitive and does get into your face on and off the field. But he is way down the pecking order and its probably correct that MOS should come from the performances of Hull with the entertainment value of Cas.
