St George Illawarra players Jackson Ford and Adam Clune were named in the 17-man team of the year.
Gerringong Lions product Ford had a breakout season in 2019 and made his first grade NRL debut.
The backrower become Dragon number 227 when he was named on the bench for Paul McGregor's side to face the Gold Coast Titans at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium in round 21.

Ford, before linking with the Dragons, helped the Lions win a first-grade Group Seven premiership in 2016.
