Idris only played 2 games

And Steve Rapira will win, or even Tamou

Are you sure? the stats on NRL.com have him as 19 career games, 16 2009 games which would make three last year if those stats are correct.

Well he's definitely eligable, I know that. He featured in the Big League rookies issue a few weeks ago.

Moltzen has been mentioned in this thread but technically he isn't a rookie as he played several games last year. But i expect a good future from him but i don't think it'll be with us because of position selection idiocy from Sheens. Moltzen is a half and a club who offers him a longterm spot there will lock him up.

Not a huge wrap on Idris either, he has ALOT of improvement in him and he doesn't impress me yet. Mortimer needs to back his form up the next few seasons or he's just another Tim Smith. Next Peter Sterling remember?

But Josh Dugan got my vote. There's alot of talent there and i think Raiders will do well to keep him there as they lose alot of their young talent to other clubs.

I'm not a huge wrap on Idris either, he is good, but not great. I reckon if he didn't have the crazy hairstyle he wouldn't get noticed as much, a bit like Wolfman from Manly and his beard.

We have some amazing players coming through at the Raiders, Dugan, Croker (who just re-signed last week ) Vidot, Joel Thompson, Drury Low etc. I would be livid if we let any of these guys leave. We are letting go of a few older players at the end of the year to upgrade contracts of these guys so hopefully we can keep them together as they will bring some glory.

Dugan is a freak, he looks like he isnt even running fast when he is. Reminds me of the great Paul Hauff!

I think Idris gets lost in defence sometimes. Most teams exploit this now.

At least you get an extra Dally M card for next years cards for Thurston, should be 2 for Sowie!!

Dally M points:
Josh Dugan 12
Daniel Mortimer 7
Jarrod Croker 5
Jamal Idris 1

Just shows what a joke these awards are. What is the use of giving points each weeks when they mean nothing at all?

Russell Packer, Keiran Foran & Kevin Locke all scored more points than Idris as well and they didn't even get nominated.

Points can be very misleading as it can favour players that are hot or cold, Idris has been solid all year. IMO there are a couple of others with more potential but Idris has already been proven as a solid first grader.
The right decision was made IMO, Im not really sold on Daniel Mortimer yet but he does look likely.

I do think Idris didnt deserve it

I think the top 3 were:

1 Mortimer
2 Dugan
3 Idris

I think Mortimer was the best
