It’s everybody’s favourite article of the year – the NRL version. I have no idea how to rate fashion, but I’ve never let that stop me before.
First, a PSA – I really, really, really, really know nothing about fashion. My Brownlow red carpet fashion ratings were written in tracksuit pants and a comfy shirt, this one in my crocodile pyjamas that have several holes my guinea in them. Yes, my standards are high.
I’m gonna make a few good-natured jokes, but the truth is, people, you’re all beautiful. Alright, disclaimer out of the way, so let’s jump in.

I’m always a fan of things that can be used for two different purposes, so I highly approve of making a dress out your grandmother’s curtains. 7/10.

Is it a dress or a black hole? It seems to be expanding. If it swallows the universe whole we’ll have our answer. 7/10.

I, too, am a fan of the Power Rangers. 8/10.

I was told to rate dresses, but I’m pretty sure this is a snake halfway through shedding its skin. 7/10.

I thought the resolution on this photo was bad, then I remembered that Jason Taumalolo’s head always looks like that. 6/10.

How this gets past Occupational Health and Safety standards I just don’t know. 6/10.

Great dress, but there’s no way those sleeves wouldn’t wind up covered in gravy and/or tomato sauce if I was wearing them. 8/10.

It’s always good to have an outfit that you can later use in your side job as an Elvis impersonator. 6/10.

“I like the lines, but I feel like it’s lacking something.”
“More lines?”
“More lines.” 7/10.

I dunno about the dress, but I’m honestly more curious about why the caddy from Happy Gilmore is here. 6/10.

I can just imagine the time they took to set up the photo for Widdop's other half... That is the price you pay Garath... many would say, a reasonable price..

I am assuming I was not asked to write this piece because I was there. Please confirm immediately.

How hard is little Greeny punching above his weight? No wonder he can articulate that sense of belief they can achieve anything so well to his players.

I agree Ian..hard to see how he was best 5/8 this year and I'm a Dragons fan. Reminds me of 2000 when dragons had a crap year but Barrett got dally M player of the year. We had a good year in 99 and mundine scored 17 tries for the year. When was the last time a 5/8 scored 17 tries, anyway no dally m for him. Yet a year later Trent got best player in the game. He was the golden boy I suppose.

So apparently Widdop is better than Norman, Milford, Munster, Malony and the rest of the 5/8s in the competition. What a farce! He is NSW Cup standard at best.

Cracking article as always Josh. Those sleeves are something else. Props to Sh-Aaron Woods for opting to go with a suit instead of a dress, suits him.
