The 2024 Dally M Awards are officially underway, with the NRL’s top players and their glamorous WAGs in attendance at sport’s most prestigious night held at Sydney’s Randwick Racecourse.
Leading the arrivals was Today show star Taylor Haynes, who wore a stunning white one-sleeved dress that featured a cut-out back and thigh-high slit.
The red carpet reporter looked glamorous in blush pink evening makeup and a nude lip, while opting for a ‘wet look’ hairstyle with a side part and loose waves.
Taylor dazzled in silver diamond jewelry and accessorized with white strappy heels.
Retired NRL radio presenter Cooper Johns, 25, also opted for a monochrome look, wearing a black and white striped double-breasted jacket and a black shirt complete with a bow tie.
The look was a nod to her former coach Craig Bellamy, who wore the same blazer at the 2019 Dally M Awards.
Adding a splash of color to kick off the red carpet was Cronulla NRLW star Tiana Penitani, who turned heads in a fitted strapless pink dress that showed off her ample cleavage and abs with cutout details.
The 28-year-old had her dark hair styled straight and parted in the middle and adorned with beautiful silver jewelry.

Retired Roosters star Mitch Aubusson looked dapper in a black and white suit alongside his stunning wife Laura Aubusson.
The WAG, who is also a journalist, wore an elegant red dress with a small train and halter neck.
Her hair was styled in a sleek updo, while she accessorized it with metallic gold heels and a matching bag.
Melbourne’s Jahrome Hughes is widely regarded as the best chance to win the 2024 men’s Dally M for the NRL’s best and fairest player. Reigning Women’s Dally M winner Tamika Upton will once again be hard to beat for the top NRLW title.

Nathan Cleary might be the best player in the game, but he has missed a lot of games this season due to injury.
When round-by-round voting for the men’s Dally M took place behind closed doors after round 12, Penrith’s Dylan Edwards was ahead on 31 points, Nicho Hynes on 30 and Manly’s Daly Cherry-Evans on 27.
The red carpet begins at 5:30pm on Wednesday AEST, with the awards ceremony starting at 7:30pm and the counting for the men’s Dally M Medal starting at 8:00pm, all from Randwick Racecourse in Sydney.
Channel Nine will not televise the ceremony, so viewers will need to tune in to Foxtel or streaming service Kayo, both of which will begin their coverage at 7:30 p.m.
