It was a night of nights for the One New Zealand Warriors at the annual Dally M Awards with Andrew Webster, James Fisher-Harris, Wayde Egan, Erin Clark and Taine Tuaupiki all feted following the club\u2019s record-breaking 2026 NRL season.<\/p>\n

For the second time in four seasons, Webster was named the Dally M coach of year after guiding the Warriors to the finals for the third time in four campaigns.<\/p>\n

He headed off Penrith\u2019s Ivan Cleary and Newcastle\u2019s Justin Holbrook following a year in which the Warriors finished level with the Panthers on top of the ladder at the end of the regular season.<\/p>\n

In doing so they made history with the most wins for the club in a season (18), the fewest losses (6) and the most points scored (728). The tally of 728 points was also the most for any team this season.<\/p>\n

Recognised as the Dally M Captain of the Year was Fisher-Harris after his second season with the club heading off Penrith\u2019s Nathan Cleary and Newcastle\u2019s Kalyn Ponga.<\/p>\n

An exceptional night for the club continued with richly-deserved recognition for Egan when he was named at hooker followed by the outstanding Clark being voted the Dally M loose forward of the year for the second season running.<\/p>\n
