Twenty-two-year-old breakout sensation Bree Chester has tonight won her first North Queensland Toyota Cowboys NRLW Player of the Year.
Chester compiled a sensational 2024 campaign in which she emerged as the leader of the Cowboys forward pack.
A second-rower in her debut season at the club, Chester switched to lock in 2024, a move which paid immediate and significant dividends.
Chester played the entire 70 minutes in all but one game during the season, averaging a remarkable 39 tackles and 130 running metres a game.
Final tally: Bree Chester 30, Jakiya Whitfeld 28, Lily Peacock 25, Emma Manzelmann 13
