2021 Panther Pride MOTM / Player of the Season Winners

Isaah Yeo has taken out both the Man of the Match total points award and the Player of the Season award.

Not surprising with the mammoth effort he put in this season. Only missing a few game this season mostly due to Origin duties, he made his presence felt front an centre week after week.

Isaah also took away Dally M honours this year, named in the Dally M team of the year at Lock.

In a year where there has been too many quality players to mention, Isaah Yeo was behind the pack in voting until a hard fought finals campaign effort propelled him to the top spot. I couldn’t think of a more deserving player to win this years award.

The final places for the Man of the Match points talley are as follows.
