The Dally M Medal is the NRL's most prestigious award, given to the NRLโs best and fairest player of the season. The award is named after late Eastern Suburbs player Dally Messenger who was rugby leagueโs first big name player during the gameโs inception.
Here is a list of ten players who will be vying for the award over the next decade! Let us know if there is anyone missing from the list in the comments below!
Tom Trbojevic
Although brother Jake may be seen in future as more of a leader at the Manly Sea Eagles, Tom Trbojevic may one day be seen as one of the best and most exciting players in the NRL.
Trbojevic is already beginning to gain the notability as other fullbacks such as Billy Slater, Jarryd Hayne and James Tedesco. He was likely to play for New South Wales this year but was ruled out due to injury.
Tom Trbojevic has the third most line breaks in the NRL this season with 18 and is only 3 line breaks off the leader Jordan Rapana. He also has the 5th most line break assists only 3 away from leader Luke Keary.
This just goes to show that Trbojevic can play opposing roles effectively. He can set-up Manlyโs tries with a line break assist or score them himself with a line break.
If he can boost his ratings up in these categories he may not only win the top try scorer award but the Dally M medal as well.
