There should be some kind of award for this

There is - it’s called the Culcutta Cup.

@Duluth Great to see Hoskins Sotutu win Super Player of the Year and Wallace Sititi win All Blacks Player of the Year.

Who knows? Robertson might pick these two brilliant talents in the same XV in 2025.

Some bloody good work from you too @sparky, the broken record award is all yours

Did Carter win 7s player last year then? Collier seems an odd pick when Carter and Fine were so crucial.

I wouldn't want to get the award handed to me with an open field and shoddy competitors.

Carter wasn't even amongst the three finalists. It highlights how inconsistent the NZ men were.
