none of the Warriors were event nominated for the DallyM awards last night, Rovelli didn't even make the top 5 rookies. Steven Price didn't get a mention for the Prop nor captain , and cleary didn't even get a mention for coach of the year.
Thats because for the most part, they didn't really deserve to be mentioned.
When you look at the awards night, none of the teams who didn't make the playoffs featured very much, if at all. Only guy I can think of is Merritt. You can't expect Cleary to get coach of the year, when the Warriors didn't make the playoffs.
And btw, G Rovelli WAS nominated for ROY, but missed out to Hayne.
However, the best part of the Awards night was defintely the new inductees into the Rugby League Hall Of Fame with Ken Kearney the St George great who passed away last month being a sentimental choice. Good to see Sterlo getting in there aswell.

Yeah, that's an error on the part of LU. Rovelli was a finalist. I think he was the only Warrior finalist, which is surprising. I thought Price deserved a shot at the prop Dally M, considering his outstanding statistics, but like blez said, the voters tend to notice the higher ranked teams moreso than anyone else.
Well last night awards (I was enjoying watching it...sort of) shows some of the bias stuff that goes on. None of the teams outside of the top 8 really got mention. A few odd players were given nominations like Wesster, Ravs and Merrit obviously. But notice how everyone else are top 8 teams? I mean fair enough they are still in the competition but if the Dally M Awards is about celebrating the year in league (which it does to some extent) I think teams that were sadly out of contention weren't given much of a look in! 
Ps- don't like Jarred Hayne! Never did, but that just makes me hate him more! lol. Jealous? Yes I am actually, am a bit ticked off about it too. Anyway that boy can't dress But did you guys see Graham Murry? How funny was his bow tie?!?! LOL!
From the TV spots thou saw Ravs and Pricey and I think think I may have spotted Mr. Mclyver (can't spell!)

Lol. *goes red in the face witth emabarassment* my bad i had a brain block, ive edited it now.
I also feel Pricey should have been nominated for Prop of the year. Also IMO Brent Webb should have been nominated for Fullback of the year..glad to see him get i think (if my memory is correct) 8th or so on the Dally M points table thingy. Very proud of him!
BTW i feel Willie Mason should have won the Representative award!!
