There was a big kerfuffle a few years back when John Todd came out and said they should change the name of the Sandover Medal because it was an insult to the blokes who won it years ago to have their name associated with the blokes who won the medal in the late 90s and early 00s.

Now, I don't agree with that at all (Todd's always been one to shoot his mouth off for a soundbite), but you couldn't say that about the league these days.

IMHO, there's been a massive upturn in the level of play in the past few years and it's great to see.
