Golden Boot

[Chuck]

For a while now, i've said that Greg Inglis is a shoe in to get the Golden Boot this year for world's best player. Nearly everyone i've said this to has laughed it off as ludicrous. But I seriously think that Inglis is the best going around and if this current season hasn't proved it then the tri-nations will. What do y'all think?

Not that you're biased or anything. :D

Do Australians really care about that award though??? Isn't it normally judged in England and often given to some pom that wouldn't even make our team? I remember a couple of years ago, that certainly happened. They gave it to one of the English forwards. I can't even remember his name, but when he came up against Darren Lockyer in the final, it was pretty damn obvious who should have won it.

yeah, andy farrell, whose since gone to union

i guess you make a fair point about bias haha, being a storm fan i would obviously see much more of him than others, but i still think he will get it

Ahhh, Andy Farrell. That's right. His name really sticks out up against those other great players I reckon. In any case, I still don't think that most Aussies really care very much about this award.
