If the press had voted MOM after the final whistle then Dom would probably have won it.
We are all glad to see him back and his two try Grand Final will establish him in the first 13 next year.

From the article Josie linked to I love this bit at the end.
He was forced off for treatment after being hurt making a try saving tackle on his opposite number Tom Lineham but, after undergoing running repairs, was back out on the field in time to score the winning try.

“It was my eyelid that was cut so there was blood going straight into my eyeball,” he explained. “I couldn’t really see anything, so that needed stitching up. Brooksy [doctor Chris Brookes] nailed that within about five minutes so I was back out there and ready to go. There was no doubt whatsoever I would be going back out there.”
True grit.

Story of the year for mine. He is the sort of player people buy tickets to see in action. The sky is the limit for what he can achieve from here. He could become the world’s best winger. Can’t wait to see him in action again. February can’t come soon enough.
