Why Man of Steel award's not a key selection concern for England coach

Connor, who played five times for England in 2018 and made three Great Britain appearances the following year, had an outstanding season with Leeds Rhinos, being named their player of the year. He also featured in the Betfred Super League Dream Team and won the Man of Steel award, but was not included among the 24 players selected to take on Australia in the three-Test series which begins at Wembley on Saturday, October 25.
