'Watt & Milne unlucky to not be in player of year mix'
Hearts and Motherwell players dominate the PFA Scotland Premiership player of the year shortlist with two nominees each, but analysts suggest Elliot Watt and Harry Milne were unlucky to miss out despite strong seasons. Stephen McGowan praised Watt as a revelation in midfield and noted his consistent influence compared to others. Milne was also highlighted for his all-around consistency, though the final four picks are seen as largely justified. The award contenders are Claudio Braga, Lawrence Shankland, Elijah Just, and Tawanda Maswanhise.
