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.
