New Zealand Warriors fullback Roger Tuivasa-Sheck has won the prestigious Dally M award for the 2018 season as well as winning fullback of the year.

To cap off the evening, he was treated to an inspirational Haka performed by his teammates Isaac Luke, Jazz Tevaga and Raider Jordan Rapana which brought him to tears.

Roger helped the Warriors make the finals this year for the first time since 2011. His season stats included 92 tackle busts, 167 running metres a game and scoring three tries.

Prime Minister Scott Morrison and four-time Dally M award winner Johnathan Thurston awarded Roger the medal after he polled 29 points at the end of round 25. He overtook Kalyn Ponga and halfback of the year Luke Brooks on the Dally M leaderboard.

Other award winners listed below:
