James Tedesco has romped to his second Dally M Medal with the Sydney Roosters superstar finishing 22 points clear of his nearest rival.

In a big night for the Roosters, Tedesco claimed the NRL’s highest individual honour for the first time since sweeping the awards in 2019.

The Roosters No.1 was also named captain and fullback of the Dally M side on Wednesday, with Mark Nawaqanitawase named on the wing and awarded try of the year.

Roosters centre Robert Toia was crowned rookie of the year in a season where he made a brilliant State of Origin debut for Queensland.

But in reality the night belonged to Tedesco.

Tedesco’s haul came one day after he reluctantly withdrew from the Kangaroos squad for the Ashes to be best man at his brother’s wedding.
