The Rugby League Players' Association has confirmed the 64 players who are in the running to be named players' champion for 2022.
Four players from each of the 16 teams have been selected to be eligible for the award, with the winner to be announced on NRL grand final day.
The four players at each club have been selected by RLPA delegates within each club for the third three, while an RLPA working group selects the fourth player per club.
The winner is selected out of the 64 players via a vote of all NRL contracted players, with no player allowed to vote for players at their own club, and each needing to lodge a 3-2-1 vote.
A handful of other awards will be announced in the lead up to the grand final, with the Players' Dream team for the NRL and NRLW and Players' rookie of the year among them.
