Re: 2017 Dream Team
Too many wearing black and amber specs. Millo has been good but there have been props at other clubs just as good if not better.
Here's mine:
Hardaker
Marshall
Atkins
Percival
Eden
Moon
Gale
Walmsley
McShane
Taylor
Moors
Murdoch-Masila
Cuthbertson
Perhaps controversial picking Atkins over Shenton but I think he's been Warrington's most dangerous player. He's a selfish centre whereas Shenton isn't.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
Although scoring a lot of tries Marshall hasn't done anything else and Wigan fans don't want him in their team. Moon over Kelly is a bad choice and I would pick Shenton over Atkins. The bias in me wants to pick McShane but I might opt for Parcell. Otherwise I'd agree!HuddsTigers wrote:Too many wearing black and amber specs.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
Millington is pretty unique these days, a ball handling prop; he has the skills of a half back, plays big minutes, makes the hard yards, puts in big hits and he does it all brilliantly - a fantastic all round rugby league player. One of the best imports ever to don a Cas shirt. Number one Super League prop 2017 for meHuddsTigers wrote:Too many wearing black and amber specs.

Not sure how you can have Moors over McMeekan this year alone.

I agree about Millo. A very special player and one of the most underrated in the game. First pick for the Dream Team for meAid wrote:Millington is pretty unique these days, a ball handling prop; he has the skills of a half back, plays big minutes, makes the hard yards, puts in big hits and he does it all brilliantly - a fantastic all round rugby league player.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
McMeeken has been good but Thursday aside, has had a pretty average and non-eventful 6/7 weeks compared to his early season form.
I just think on balance, Moors has had a much bigger impact this season. It's hard to leave out anyone.
As for Marshall, he's a winger and that's his job. Eden has done the same?
Moon has been outstanding this year. Kelly has had a good season too granted but I think the former has really carried Leeds at a time their halves have been shocking or inconsistent.
It's a shame Jake Mamo couldnt be included too because he's been great. Sadly Hardaker has been fit all season and consistently better.

I just think when you have players like Taylor at Hull, Walmsley, who make huge metres and traditional grunt forwards who really make yards, they will always be first pick.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
I agree with most already said.
Hardaker , Eden , Shenton , Gale and Mcmeeken I think will get in.
Then close between.
Mcshane - Parcell
Millington-Walmsley
JSL - Taylor / Murdoch Masila depending on what they count him as.
Milner is a good shout but wouldnt surprise me if they put Ellis in for sentimental reasons or SOL because hes the only Wigan player they can get in. Moors before injury would have been a shoo in.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
You can never really judge the value of a player until he isn't there. We missed Millington like hell in the Challenge Cup final in 2014.tigerfeat wrote:Outside of cas week by week standard as been as low as i can remember in super league probs easier to say who would get in cas side ..millington would be first name on team sheet of my 13
For me the best all round prop in the league. Could you really see the likes of Taylor,Watts.Walmsley & Cuthbertson quickly directing his half back to kick into space like he did at Headingley? The guy is class!

They make the metres because they always go into contact though.HuddsTigers wrote:Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Millo and really underrated by a lot of Super League.Aid wrote:Millington is pretty unique these days, a ball handling prop; he has the skills of a half back, plays big minutes, makes the hard yards, puts in big hits and he does it all brilliantly - a fantastic all round rugby league player.

Millington is different. He makes less metres because of his ability to pass the ball before contact having pulled two or three defenders to him, so others can exploit the space.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
Anyone who doesn't think Millo is in the top 2 or 3 forwards in the league is massively underestimating him. Just because he is not an obvious banger like Walmsley doesn't diminish his quality. He has so much more to his game. Along with Gale, McShane and Hardaker, Millo is one who we will struggle the most without.
Mine:
Hardaker
Eden
Shenton
Percival
Fonua
Kelly
Gale
Millington
McShane
Watts
Murdoch Masilla
Moors
Walmsley (as a loose/extra forward)

Re: 2017 Dream Team
If you listen to what hull fans say Scott Taylor hasn't been anything like the same player he was last year and discipline aside watts has been the stand out prop at hull. He wouldn't even come close to the dream teamScoopage wrote:Might just be me but no way on earth as Scott taylor had a better season than milo.cuthbertson warmsley and milo been best 3 props this season

Re: 2017 Dream Team
O'loughlin must be put in somewhere, how can a guy who barely does anything all season but keep a physio in a job miss out? I never understand why this guy is picked for anything. I really just don't get the fascination with him.InTheKnow wrote:Not sure on other winger
Percival centre
Albert Kelly at stand off
Walmsley
Big Ben Murdoch
Not sure at loose. Probably Sean O'L
Agree with the rest ITK.

Re: 2017 Dream Team
Was exactly same with Peacock. Played 80 mins but walked around for 60 of them.
Re: 2017 Dream Team
Just watching Thursdays game back (for about the 20th time) and am amazed at the amount of work Grant Millington gets through. When fit, would always be the first name on my team sheet. Surely a shoe in for the Dream Team as he's head and shoulders above all other props in SL this season
