The Wallabies' big night of back-slappery is on tomorrow and after a cursory glance, I couldn't help but notice we don't have a thread predicting the winner.

The ceremony is on Fox Sports 1 Tomorrow night from 830. The "Gold Carpet" nonsense is being streamed on Foxsports.com.au from 6, here.

For my 2 cents it'll be Moore, Alexander or Genia.

Form in the EOYT is just as valuable as form this year- we played 5 games on the EOYT and have played 5 this year. This brings Pocock right into it, and maybe JOC (James O'Connor) and Beale.

I am going to stick my neck out and say Pocock will go back to back.

Forgot about the EOYT. Kurtley probably took the lions share of the points there so I'd add him to Moore and Genia who have been flawless so far this season.

Won't be Alexander.

Pocock, Genia, Moore, Beale. I reckon Will might do it though.

Those will probably be the four favourites.

Beale and Pocock will probably have loads of points from last year, but not so much thi year.

Genia will be the reverse.

Moore has probably been the most consistent without dominating.

It would be interesting if this website could do a poll after every game where you give 3,2,1 points and got an instant tally, rather than just comments. This way you could have a quick look at the 10 threads and see who the winner from this site is.

Is it possible to do a poll with enough options for every player and give a different value to three of them?

Can't see is being Genia. Don't think he would've got any votes on last year's EOYT.

I think Rocky is in with a shot. Pocock will be the favourite no doubt. Beale in the mix. Between those 3 imo

Rocky is not in contention...

The six finalists are:

Moore
Beale
Pocock
Genia
Horwill
Ioane

Since Ioane and Horwill didn't play on last years EOYT that would surely rule them out.

Genia wasn't at his best last year, but would've scored extremely well this year.

Pocock and Beale were probably our two best players on the EOYT, although Beale hasn't been too spectacular this year and while Pocock has been good he's probably been overshadowed by other players.

Moore has been mr consistent the entire time, and is a fair chance.

That's interesting. Not sure how Horwill and Ioane got their names in there. Pocock or Beale then.

Definitely Genia for me.

Though Drew Mitchell had a blinder EOYT, definitely the Wycliff Palu of the 2010/11 Medal ceremony.
