Jahrome Hughes wins high praise from Nathan Cleary as he enters the Dally M awards night as favourite to snare the NRL's most prestigious individual prize.
Penrith 's Nathan Cleary declares Melbourne halfback Jahrome Hughes NRL 's best player in 2024 ahead of Dally M Awards Penrith 's Nathan Cleary declares Melbourne halfback Jahrome Hughes NRL 's best player in 2024 ahead of Dally M Awards Penrith Panthers halfback Nathan Cleary says his grand final rival, Melbourne 's Jahrome Hughes , is the best running half he has seen.
Hughes has been the architect of the Storm's best season since Cameron Smith retired, steering the club to the minor premiership amid Cam Munster and Ryan Papenhuyzen's injury lay-offs. It has been enough to impress Cleary, widely regarded the best player in the game, ahead of Wednesday night's Dally M Awards.
"I think he's added a lot of other stuff to his game as well just in terms of game management and ball playing."When voting for the Dally M Medal went behind closed doors at the end of round 12, Hughes sat in equal-15th spot and had lost six points following a one-match ban for touching referee Chris Butler.
James Tedesco looks to be Hughes's major competition after an excellent and largely uninterrupted season for the Roosters, with Manly's Daly Cherry-Evans also a chance for the medal.
