The 2014 Willie M Medal

The 2014 Willie M Medal kicks off and sadly there is little hope a previous champ will rise again. Parramatta have started Chris Sandow in reserve grade and will keep him there. Blake Ferguson is out of the NRL and will be for at least 2014. Nathan Fien has retired. Tim Moltzen is hurt. Ben Roberts is a stop-gap. Get ready for a new champ.
