Metcalf still tops Dally M ladder

<div>
<p>One New Zealand Warriors halfback Luke Metcalf retains top spot as voting for the Dally M player of the year honour goes behind closed doors.</p>
<p>Metcalf was awarded one point for his display in last night’s 10-16 loss to the Canberra Raiders, taking his total to 31, two clear of Cronulla Sutherland fullback Will Kennedy.</p>

<p>Sydney Roosters fullback James Tedesco is third on 28.</p>
<p>Last night Metcalf challenged the line consistently but couldn’t find a way through the Raiders’ near-impregnable defensive live. From 10 runs he made 81 metres while he finished 19 tackles and 316 metres from nine kicks in a contest dominated by defence. He also kicked three goals from three attempts.</p>
