It has been a really good year for us so far, we started the season well and now we are building towards the semi-finals, and I think it's recognition that the players deserve.

I think it's a fair team. I would have liked to see the whole Leeds team in there, but obviously that's not possible.

I think a few of the boys are a bit unlucky not to get in there, but five is a good representation.

Hopefully a Leeds player will get the honour when the Man of Steel is announced the week after next.

There's a number of candidates this year, obviously Jamie Peacock has been playing well, so has James Graham at Saints and his team-mate Matt Gidley, along with Wigan Warriors' George Carmont who have both had big years.

You could probably pick half-a-dozen who could be up there for the Man of Steel award, so it's going to be a tight one.

It will be interesting to see which way it goes.

There's a lot of candidates this year and they come from a range of teams as well, which means the competition is getting tighter and the best players are getting distributed among the clubs, which is a good thing for the game over here.

Everyone who got a place in the Dream Team would definitely swap that for a place at Old Trafford in the Grand Final.

We are one win away from going back there and we're excited about tomorrow's qualifying semi-final at Knowsley Road.

We have got a full squad and everyone's fit and healthy and ready to go, which is a good situation to be in at this time of the year.

From our point of view, we are set for it, it is something we have been training hard for over the last couple of weeks and we're looking forward to getting out there and getting into them on Friday night.

If I had to make a prediction, I'd say it will be a close game. Our games against Saints have all been close so far this year and I don't see any reason why tomorrow will be different.

We have prepared well, as I am sure they have, and both teams will be giving it their all. It is all up for grabs this weekend. If you win, you're straight through to the Grand Final and that's where everyone wants to be on October 4, running out at Old Trafford. To get there the quick way would be great and it's something we really want to do.
