Surprised to see Demant nominated, she's the weakest link in BF backline IMO & Harrison not getting nominated is just rubbish.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Mack Hansens name hurts.

Well done to him though

 

[qwerty51]

Another year, another year of Australian snubs. Probably give us Foketi as a consolation.

Nick Frost over Arundell easily - he's played 28 minutes for fucks sake. Am is a joke, barely played either. Missed a Welsh Test and only played against NZ didn't he? So 4 Tests this year?

No Ardie just shows the immense NH bias.

I think I would've nominated Valetini, Ardie, JvdF and Etzebeth with Ardie winning.

Yeah look they don't really give a fuck. It's fan appeasement. Simon Middleton coach of the year is funny as well, didn't really need to strain his brain much.

 

[Slim 293]

World Rugby Men’s Sevens Player of the Year in partnership with HSBC

• Terry Kennedy (IRE)
• Nick Malouf (AUS)
• Kaminieli Rasaku (FIJ)
• Corey Toole (AUS)

I wonder if we'll see much of Toole at the Brumbies next year?

Didn't even win the RWC when they were massive favs either.

 

[Viking]

No Ardie or Eden again, craziness.

Am should have been there last year, has he even played this year.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Tui & Capuozzo named Breakthrough Players of the Year.

Special Merit Award to Bryan Habana for his work in youth rugby.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Wayne Smith Coach of the Year & Farah Palmer gets the Vernon Pugh Award.

Dinner is served...

 

[Wilson]

Charlotte Caslick and Terry Kennedy (IRE) take the 7's player of the year awards

[Dctarget]

Thought Mr Van Der Flier was pretty ineffective on the weekend.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Shocked that Demant won, plays more like a second 9 than a 10 for mine.

Lucky to get any in there. But nice for Koroibete to get some recognition.

 

[Marce]

Koroibete the lone Australian

Kerevi is the other one who has a real chance to be there. Maybe Tupou from few years ago and that's all. A fit Hooper too.

Kerevi and Hooper played few games this year and Tupou is not even a starter in Australia

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Tries of the Year Fernandez (M) & Dow (W).

Referee Award Tappe Henning.
