The Playmaker Award is given to the player who creates chances and tries for his team, with three key metrics used to decide the winner – try assists for his team, successfully completed offloads, and defenders beaten on the pitch. ‘A player is awarded three points for each try assist, 2 points for each offload, and 1 point for each defender beaten.
