    (Kaino was robbed in 2011).

    For sure, but POTY in a RWC favours 6N teams - because they get a 6N, plus warm up tests and then RWC.

    That's a very good point, SH only get a truncated rugby championship in the calendar year of a world cup.

    Coach of the Year?

    Should be Jamie Joseph by a bloody mile.

    It's not calendar year but year to date

    I am going to say

    Kolbe, Japan, Erasmus, Jantjies

    Japan has to win either team or coach. I think they get team.

    Personally I would like du Toit to win, but Kolbe deserves it no less

    This

    Nope

    PSDT Men's
    Emily Scarrat Women's

    Boks and Rassie team and coach no surprise

    Ntamick break through

    7s Tuwai (Fiji) and Tui

    Waynes Barne got the ref

    Tj, YAY, got the try - tells a bit about the ABs over the last few years, no consistency but man we can show some amazing skills - sometimes - when under no real pressure 😉

    The world rugby awards do feel a little bit pointless in WC years.

    Coach = WC winning coach
    Team = WC winning team

    @MajorRage Not in 2015.

    The Coach of the Year went to Michael Cheika.

    I don't know how SA got team of the year. Japan all the way for me- beating Ireland, getting out of the pool; by comparison, SA big achievement was winning the RWC despite a loss, and a narrow points decision in the RC.

    Ah well, rugby politics I presume
