It may have been referee Radius who was the centre of tabloid attention for quite the most bungling display of the umpiring arts in living memory, but meanwhile Pete Chapman was quietly but authoritatively going about his defensive duties in expert fashion. Although the press were in voluntary exile last weekend, we have heard familar tales of calm determination and sublime tackling, as well as some no-nonsense dealing a some lippy opponent. We also suspect that this exemplar of excellence contributed significantly to helping centre back partner Oliver Morgan impress on his debut. There have also been calls to rename this poll the Pete Chapman Award, after the brilliant defender has now walked off with 4 MoMs in just 5 appearances. We shall resist for the time being.
