Chopper Toughest

"Chopper" Colin McIntosh has comfortably won a internet poll for the toughest tackler in the Rovers team in the last match. "I think Chopper has built up quite a reputation in Division 1" said Zephyr Manager Steve Hall "but it is a bit of a surprise to have a forward winning the toughest tackler poll". Chopper cleaned up the poll with 54% of the vote and it was a long way back to George Nash on 22%. "The best actual defender only got 9% of the vote and that was Nigel Burn" said Hall "and you have to wonder what the voters were thinking as Nigel had a great game and looked pretty good to me". Hall said he wasn't tempted to pull McIntosh back into a permanent back two roll. "Col is a very handy forward and he scores some cracker goals" said Hall "I've seen him crack them in from the corner flag so he doesn't make it easy for the opposition to contain him". McIntosh said he was flattered by the poll win but disappointed it didn't come with a cheque for winning.
