The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 15
Mitchell Moses has pulled to a four-point lead in the 2015 Willie M Medal after claiming three votes in the loss to the Sea Eagles. Moses can pull off a spectacular play – and that unpredictability can be helpful – but his game isn’t close to being ready for regular first grade.
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 14
If Corey Thompson plays first grade again it will be one more game than he deserves. He near single-handedly cost the Bulldogs the two points with a truly inept display that was deserving of 10 Willie M votes, not the maximum of three available. His pissweak decision not to contest a ball before the break […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 13
Bulldogs backrower Tony Williams has spared himself the indignity of being hailed as Rugby League’s most consistently mediocre player by suffering a season-ending bicep injury at training last week. The news has been welcomed by Canterbury fans everywhere, who wish Williams a fast recovery and an even faster release.
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 11
For the third straight week we have had a change at the top of the leaderboard of the Willie M Medal. Mitchell Moses and Tony Williams now sit atop the Willie M Medal count after 11 rounds with Brad Takairangi and Joel Reddy just a single point behind them. Moses picked up a point in […]

The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 8
Manu Vatuvei’s inconsistency continues to reach new heights with an absolute stinker full of handling errors, poor positioning and shocking defence. Jason Nightingale was dropped from the Kiwi side but it should have been Vatuvei. And a big thanks to Cliff Bingham for keeping the show ticking while I was honeymooning without a laptop in […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 7
The race for the Willie M Medal is on in earnest as we approach the one-third mark of the season. While Joel Reddy still leads the way, Mitchell Moses and Tyrone Roberts each staked their claims for rugby league’s crown of ineptitude as their teams surrendered double digit leads at home, whereas Shaun Kenny-Dowall was […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 6
Congratulations to Making The Nut’s founder Nick Tedeschi or marrying his beautiful bride Louise last Friday – with Nick on his honeymoon, the Willie M votes are under caretaker management for the next couple of weeks. The show (of rugby league mediocrity) must go on though. Origin representatives James Maloney and Daly Cherry-Evans were the […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 5
Warriors stars Shaun Johnson and Manu Vatuvei have put themselves well in contention for this year’s Willie M with two more shocking performances against the Storm. If Johnson wins he will be the first player to go from Golden Boot to Willie M. Canterbury v South Sydney 3-James Graham (Bul) 2-Josh Reynolds (Bul) 1-Chris McQueen […]
The 2015 Willie M Medal: Round 4
Joel Reddy has streaked to the front of the 2015 Willie M Medal count after another inept performance against the Eels, dropping the ball twice and generally looking like he had the pace of an old hog with arthritis. Heaven help the Bunnies if he keeps his first grade spot. His run to the Willie […]
