Congratulations to Cam for the above honour. Also to Cooper and Bellyache for International halfback and coach respectively. Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of blokes.

Congratulations boys.
All three men are worthy recipients of their respective awards and are deserving of the recognition.

Awesome stuff!! Well done Cam, Coops, Craig and Sisa.

Billy should've been given fb of the year too, it's a joke that Barba keeps getting this recognition. Bill missed 5 games, but played in 3 rep games for AUS and QLD which Barba didn't.

Well done captain!!!

Sometime in November usually. Interesting to see who wins it. Would love Coops to get some more recognition. I expect Inglis to win it though.

Cam should win it, no contest.

But they'll probably give it to Barba

Because despite his lack of credentials he's already won Dally M award, NRL Fullback of the year and International Fullback of the year.
Apparently Australia and QLD don't want/need the best fullback in their team??? :-/

I think all winners of GB have played Rep games not just club games.

Not completely true - Matt Orford (Dally M 2008) never even played Origin let alone Test footy. Carney may or may not have played for Australia before he won his International Player of the Year Gong.
