Canberra Raiders prop Joe Tapine claims back-to-back Meninga Medals

The Canberra Times

Remember when Joe Tapine won the Mal Meninga Medal by the length of the Thoroughbred Park straight? The greatest compliment Ricky Stuart can give him is that he has backed it up a year later.

Tapine polled 24 votes to claim the Meninga Medal for the second time in as many seasons, becoming the ninth man to have won the Raiders' player of the year award multiple times.

The New Zealand international finished two votes clear of Sebastian Kris, while Matt Timoko rounded out the top three on 19 votes - five clear of Corey Horsburgh in fourth.
