The 2013 Willie M Medal: Round 16
If we were to simply go off the worst individual performance of the season in awarding the Willie M Medal, Gold Coast winger Anthony Don would be $1.02 to win the 2013 version. So inept was his showing on both sides of the ball against the Knights on Sunday that he made Nathan Merritt’s Origin debut look like Johnny Raper destroying the Poms at Swinton. John Cartwright will need the patience of a young Jesus of Nazareth to pick him next time out.
