Manly Sea Eagles fullback Tom Trbojevic has won The Continuous Call Team’s Player of the Year award for 2021.

The award is in honour of the late immortal Bob Fulton, with the team judging the best players each match and awarding them 3 points, 2 points and 1 point.

Despite missing parts of the season through injury, Trbojevic finished on 37 points, two ahead of South Sydney five-eighth Cody Walker, and Penrith halfback Nathan Cleary who finished third, four points behind.

The 24-year-old has scored 27 tries from 17 games and told The Continuous Call Team it’s a privilege to win the inaugural award.

“That’s awesome thanks guys,” Trbojevic said.

“I’m really honoured to get that.
