On the bright side, I don't think it will bother BOD, he hasn't room on his mantlepiece, ie. with the other trophies/medals/honours

that has to be bs... or else its the biggest fraud ever

cant believe McCaw got it. I thought du Preez and BOD were miles ahead of the competiton especially as McCaw has been injured a lot of this year.

THey mentioned on RTE today that Ireland have won 41 (or so) matches out of 59 which BOD has captained.

Brussow was the stand out openside this season also.

farce of a decision. appears to just be a politics thing, they gave Kidney coach, so spread the other awards around. McCaw wasn't even the 7 of the year.

I had just been thinking the same thing. He was behind Brussow, & arguably Pocock.

Pocock had a quiet enough 3N he wasn't as good as we'v soon him on this tour, but agree completely about Brussow

True,
The thing that bothers me is not that BOD didn't get it, but that it went to a player I think (and many others) is undeserving.

handsomecake, are you suggesting that McCaw deserved the award this year over BOD/Fourie Du Preez?
