Brent Crisp has capped off a brilliant individual season by winning the 2017 Les McIntyre Medal as the Best and Fairest player in the Austbrokers Canberra Raiders Cup.
Despite only playing ten of a possible 16 first grade matches, the Queanbeyan Kangaroos playmaker tallied 20 points as he held off Tuggeranong’s Josh Mitchell (16 points) to the prestigious award.
Rounding out the award were Terry Campese (11 points – Queanbeyan Blues), Cleveland McGhie (10 points – Woden Valley Rams) and Ben Sione (10 points – Belconnen United Sharks).
Having played both at fullback and five-eighth throughout the season, Crisp finished the night with another two awards as he finished as the leading try scorer and leading points scorer.
