RLPA 2020 Players' Champion Contenders

The RLPA has today revealed the List of Contenders for The Players’ Champion 2020 – outlining the four players from each team who are eligible for the prestigious award and the Players’ 13 Dream Team.

The RLPA has partnered with Nine this year, with winners of both the NRL and NRLW award to be announced live on Grand Final day (October 25).

Past recipients James Tedesco, Jason Taumalolo (Cowboys) and Kalyn Ponga (Knights) all feature on the star-studded shortlist.

The List of Contenders is made up of four players from each club that are nominated to be eligible for The Players’ Champion (NRL) and Players’ 13 Dream Team voting.

RLPA Delegates and Player Leaders at each Club put forward the three best players from their own team. An RLPA Working Group nominates a fourth player to round out the nomination process.

In total, 64 players (four from each team) are eligible to receive votes in the end of season poll.

The Sydney Roosters contenders in 2020 are Brett Morris, James Tedesco, Luke Keary and Siosiua Taukeaiho.

Five Finalists for The Players’ Champion (NRL) will be announced on October 15.
