For me it has to be Leroy again. He played every match, tackled his heart out, took a hell of a lot of ball and set up numerous tries with his kicks under the sticks.

If you put leroy at six does that mean you are keeping rudd at 13?

Towards the end of last season things seemed to change in our team. Rudd was wearing 13 and Leroy was wearing 6 but i'm quite certain that we were playing them the other way round. Duffy and Rudd were quite clearly the playmakers and Leroy seemed to stand behind Rudd a lot and Leroy was used more for taking the ball up. I would like to see Rudd at stand off next season we've been crying out for a decent stand off for 3 years and he's certainly the best we've got at the moment. Everyone still needs to remember he's not been a pro for a massive length of time and with time he'll get better and pick up more pace and be able to attack the line a lot more. Still Leroy always gives 100% and he had a good year last year but other than a decent short kicking game he doesn't offer us that much in attack anymore.
