Sam is Player of the Year
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Sam is Player of the Year
Well deserved imo, for his sheer talent, drive & matchwinning potential.
Plus having to come through all the stick he's taken - now showing a higher level of professionalism in his game.
And at an age, he can only improve further.
