HERE is the reason for Manly's Daly Cherry-Evans to overcome the disappointment of narrowly missing being crowned Dally M player-of-the-year.

The Daily Telegraph can today reveal the great Dally M curse.

Only once in the past 26 years has the Dally M winner gone on to win the first grade premiership in the same season. That occurred in 2008 when Manly's Matt Orford won the double.

On Tuesday night, Cherry-Evans surged late but couldn't reign in Melbourne halfback Cooper Cronk, who polled 28 points to win rugby league's premier individual award.

It was a thrilling finish between some of the game's biggest names.

Cherry-Evans polled eight points over the final three rounds but ran equal second with North Queensland's Johnathan Thurston and Cronulla's Todd Carney, all on 26 points.

Rugby league turned on the glitz and glamour on Tuesday night as 700 players, officials and VIP's people attended the back tie dinner at The Star.

The biggest star though wasn't necessarily Cronk.

Hollywood actor and South Sydney co-owner Russell Crowe was special guest and presented the top award to Cronk.

Victory for Cronk helped overcome a numbing loss for Melbourne in week two of the finals.

"It is a wonderful honour," Cronk said.

Cronk led the tally on 16 points when voting went behind closed-doors after round 16. He polled in five of the final six games to fend off his rivals.

Carney could be deemed unlucky.

He finished just two points off winning but missed rounds 25 and 26 with a hamstring injury.

Melbourne's Cam Smith and Newcastle's Jarrod Mullen were further back on 20 points.

Judges were the Fox Sports rugby league commentary team.
