It’s awards day!

Welcome to live coverage of the Ultimatesportsmemorabilia.com.au Player of the Year.

We’ll have the announcements as they come through from twitter and facebook throughout the day.

It begins at 10am with the individual club players of the year.

—————

10am: We kick things off with the Sydney Roosters Player of the Year and the winner is superstar full-back Roger Tuivasa-Sheck! RTS is one of the favourites to win the NRL Player of the Year award.

10.13am: Canberra Raiders Player of the Year is Blake Austin, beating out Jack Wighton and Josh Hodgson.

10.20am: No shock here as Johnathan Thurston wins Cowboys’ Player of the Year.

10.33am: James Tedesco named Wests Tigers Player of the Year ahead of Aaron Woods.

10.38am: Newcastle award goes to prop Korbin Sims who beats Jarrod Mullen and his brother Tariq Sims!

10.46am: Shaun Johnson wins the Warriors award, next up Canterbury and Coach of the Year.

10.52am: Bulldogs fullback Brett Morris takes out his club’s award ahead of rising half Moses Mbye.

11.01am: Coach of the Year is Cronulla Sharks’ Shane Flanagan – definitely a few different reactions from the punters on this one.

11.07am: Gold Coast Titans award goes to James Roberts who beats out Aidan Sezer and Kane Elgey.

11.12am: Kiwi prop Jesse Bromwich wins Melbourne Storm’s award.

11.21am: A great year from Brett Stewart is rewarded with Manly’s Player of the Year.

11.25am: And the Dragons award goes to Gareth Widdop who pips Josh Dugan and Benji Marshall.

11.29am: Souths captain Greg Inglis wins their award!

11.33am: Tough old season for Penrith but Matt Moylan wins their award.

11.37am: Chris Sandow polled the most votes for the Eels but is ineligible so the award goes to flying Fijian Semi Radradra.

11.45am: What a year from Michael Ennis and he takes out Cronulla’s Player of the Year.

11.51am: Anthony Milford beats Ben Hunt for Brisbane’s Player of the Year.

12.01pm: Johnathan Thurston is the Representative Player of the Year!

12.10pm: And the Rookie of the Year is Sharks young gun Jack Bird.

Our awards continue at 1pm with the Team of the Year and the countdown to the 2015 Ultimatesportsmemorabilia.com.au Player of the Year.

1.01pm And we’re back with the Team of the Year. First up and there is little surprise, Fullback of the Year is Roosters superstar Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.

1.10pm Shaun Kenny-Dowall from the Roosters and Valentine Holmes from Cronulla have been named Wingers in the Team of the Year. Was Semi Radradra robbed? SKD and Holmes polled more votes throughout 2015.

1.14pm Potentially NSW’s centre pairing for 2015. Blake Ferguson and James Roberts take out the centre spots.

1.18pm Congratulations to Broncos five-eight Anthony Milford on nabbing his positonal award!

1.28pm Johnathan Thurston has his third award of the day, taking Halfback of the Year.

1.36pm Storm Player of the Year Jesse Bromwich now in the front row of the year with Sharks’ Andrew Fifita!

1.40pm Wow! Another for the Sharks with Michael Ennis very much deserving of Hooker of the Year. With Lewis, Graham and Gallen still a chance of taking a Team spot, there could more good news for Sharks fans.

1.50pm More silverware for Cronulla with Wade Graham and North Queensland’s Jason Taumalolo taking second rowers.

1.59pm Martin Taupau takes out Lock of the Year for Wests Tigers and that’s the 2015 Team!

2.25pm Countdown to the Player of the Year is on now with 41-57 posted with the likes of Mitchell Pearce, Blake Ferguson and Paul Gallen.

2.36pm 31-40 is announced with Wade Graham just outside the top 30. Cameron Munster and Cooper Cronk both finish on 11 votes.

3.30pm We’re down to the top FIVE and Michael Ennis comes in on 23 points!

The top 5:

  1. Johnathan Thurston 31
  1. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck 27
  2. James Tedesco 23
  3. Anthony Milford 23
  4. Michael Ennis 23

Johnathan Thurston has won his second straight The81stMinute Player of the Year award after winning it last year alongside Jarryd Hayne!
