Brisbane Broncos NRLW skipper Ali Brigginshaw wins Dally M female player of the year
Brisbane Broncos lock Ali Brigginshaw has received the highest individual accolade in the women’s game, named as the female player of the year at the Dally M awards.
Key points:
Brigginshaw captained Brisbane to back-to-back NRLW premierships in 2018 and 2019.
She scored the game-sealing try in the Broncos’ win over the Roosters last weekend, and she and her team will attempt to complete a hat-trick when they face the Roosters again in Sunday’s grand final.
The skipper changed over from half-back to a forward role this season, and she polled 16 votes to win the Dally M medal for female player of the year.
Brigginshaw won by two votes from another Bronco, full-back Tamika Upton.
