THE Roosters claimed the ultimate team prize this season, but all 16 clubs had some brilliant individual performances in 2018.

Most of the 16 clubs have had their presentation nights to toast the best player in their team this season.

Fox Sports brings you each club’s pick for player of the year honours.

ROOSTERS - James Tedesco

The best player on the best team this season, James Tedesco was one of the buys of the year and helped lead the Roosters to the 2018 title.

Tedesco scored nine tries in a career best 25 games for the Roosters and finished second in run metres behind Blake Ferguson with 4,520 and equal third in try assists with 21.

STORM - To be named Wednesday October 3
RABBITOHS - To be named Friday October 5
SHARKS - Valentine Holmes

The Cronulla fullback was one of the most dynamic players in the competition and transformed himself into a world class fullback in 2018.

Holmes was second behind David Fusitua on the top try scorer’s list with 22 and finished three ahead of second best Blake Ferguson for linebreaks with 27.

PANTHERS - To be named Wednesday October 3
BRONCOS - To be named Saturday October 6
DRAGONS - To be named Wednesday October 3
WARRIORS - Roger Tuivasa-Sheck

The Dally M player of the year was always going to be named his club’s best in 2018 and the Warriors skipper came of age as a leader this season.

Tuivasa-Sheck finished top five in run metres, with 3,482 and was in the top 10 for tackle busts with 92, but it was his maturity and leadership that most defined his season.

TIGERS - Luke Brooks

With three of the Tigers’ big four leaving the club in the off-season, the Tigers’ No.7 stepped up to win the Dally M halfback of the year award.

Brooks revelled in taking more responsibility for the team in attack and his running game was a constant threat as the Tigers fell just short of breaking their finals drought.

RAIDERS - Josh Papalii

The Raiders were one of the most inconsistent teams in the competition, but there was nothing inconsistent about the performances of their Maroons’ Origin star.

Papalii scored five tries in 22 games for the ‘Green Machine’ and helped lead a late season revival with his bone crunching defence and barnstorming running game.

KNIGHTS - Kalyn Ponga

The wonder kid absolutely lit up the competition on his way to nearly becoming the youngest ever winner of the Dally M Medal.

Ponga finished the season with six tries from 20 starts and was third behind only James Tedesco and Nick Cotric for tackle busts with 108.

BULLDOGS - David Klemmer

The Bulldogs had a season to forget, but David Klemmer cemented himself as one of the most damaging ball runners in the game.

Klemmer was second to only Jason Taumalolo in forward run metres, finishing with 3,845 from 22 games in the engine room for the Bulldogs.

COWBOYS - Jason Taumalolo

The Cowboys were one of the seasons real disappointments, but their Dally M lock of the year was at his destructive best every single week.

Taumalolo finished with the most run metres by a forward with 4,073 in 23 games for the Cowboys.

TITANS - Ryan James

The Gold Coast skipper’s form in 2018 came close to earning him an Origin debut, as he consistently led from the front week in and week out.

James continued his uncanny ability to find the try line scoring six tries in 23 games and whenever his side needed a tough carry their skipper was there to put his hand up.

SEA EAGLES - Jake Trbojevic

The older Trbojevic was at his consistent best in 23 games in 2018, despite his team struggling towards a second last placed finish.

The Origin star was a shining light through a difficult season, finishing with seven tries, only two behind his brilliant brother and Manly fullback Tom.

EELS - Daniel Alvaro

The Eels barely fired a shot in 2018, but coach Brad Arthur can thank his lucky stars he had Daniel Alvaro, who played 19 quality games for the season.

Alvaro set the benchmark for the effort and commitment that is expected from all the Parramatta players if the club is to turn their fortunes around next season.
