The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 26

Despite not holding the outright lead in the Willie M Medal until the final round, Newcastle halfback Tyrone Roberts has claimed the award for the 2015 season’s most consistently mediocre and inept player. Roberts trailed Mitchell Moses all season with the young Tigers half seemingly home but with 12 votes in the final eight games […]

2015 Willie M Medal: Round 25 With a round to play the Willie M Medal is still up for grabs but the Willie M Rookie of the Year has been well and truly secured by the hopelessly inept Waqa Blake, who has shown the heart of a split pea and the nous of a brick […]

The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 22

Penrith’s Waqa Blake has pushed himself into contention with a dramatic late-season run at the Willie M. The Penrith outside back who came into the top grade with so much promise has turned out to be a total dud, putting in a worst-on-ground performance against Parramatta. The Panthers have plenty of outside backs and Blake […]

The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 17

Valentine Holmes may well be an attacking phenom who shapes as the next Roger Tuivasa-Sheck but he cannot defend a lick and it cost Cronulla dearly on Sunday. Opposite Jorge Taufua scored three tries because Holmes could not make a decent read, could not tackle and actually seemed scared of his opposite. He has a […]
