Congratulations Rangi Chase! www.mirror.co.uk/sport/rugby/rug ... -23465093/

Well-deserved. Despite all the unwarranted hype!

Cant believe they have published it before it as been announced.

Get in there rangi!

Journalists are given results in advance of announcement so they can put it in the morning editions. What a week for Rangi

.

Well done Rangi!!



(Wigan RLfans going into meltdown!

Im loving the response from opposition fans, as Corporal Jones would say " they dont like it up em "

Great player. Have said all season long I would love him to sign for Wigan. Not sure about the England call-up though

Well done Rangi Chase!!

Obviously we are a little biased in thinking Rangi should get the award but i definitely think he deserved it instead of Tomkins.

If you look back at previous winners like Sculthorpe, Farrell, Vowles, Peacock etc they were all warriors who played the game hard and fair which for me is what the award is about.

I know Chase is a half-back but for me he demonstrates those qualities more than most in Super League - wouldn't have argued with Roby winning but others i've liked this season are Michael Monaghan, Thomas Leuluai & Danny Buderus.



I know in the last couple of years players like Richards and Hodgson have won it (not sure when the players started voting for it) but this is where the award fails a bit now for me as it's more of a best player of the year award, which seems to be going more towards flashy backs than the real hard men of the sport of previous years

At least an Englishman won it

Yep. Cas through and though, mate. Cas through and through.
