Getting to the pointy end of the season so who do we think will take out the club awards?

My predictions are:

Player of the year - Cam Smith smokey Felise Kaufusi
Best Back - Cam Munster smokey Suliasi Vunivalu
Best Forward - Dale Finucane smokey Felise Kaufusi
Rookie - Brandon Smith smokey Ryley Jacks
Most Improved - Josh Addo-Carr smokey Nelson Asofa-Solomona

Not entirely sure who classes as a rookie, is it first year at club or in league? Hughes or Addo-carr may qualify.

Stimson possibly rookie of the year?

Agreed with all of the rest, Felise should probably be most improved though.

Player of the year - Cameron Smith
Best Back - Billy Slater
Best Forward - Dale Finucane
Rookie - Joe Stimson
Most Improved - Felise Kaufusi

I assume whoever is named Player of the Year does not also get the Best Back/Forward award as well.

Smith has it this year by some margin in my opinion. Along with a second Dally M.

I was thinking JAC might be a chance for RoTY but he played too many games last season. But I think he could be a smokey for most improved.

If it is the same as the NRL Dally M Rookie of the Year, they must not have played more than three NRL games in the previous (NRL debut) year.
