The nominees for the 2024 Blowes Cup Travla Beer Player of the Year have been announced with Cowra Eagles star Blake Tidswell up for the season's Best and Fairtest.

Tidswell is up against Orange City's Tom Harbison, Hunter Davis from the Bathurst Bulldogs, Tom Dewhurst and Simon Badgery from Orange Emus, and Mahe Fangupo of Forbes. The presentation of the award will follow Saturday's decider.

For Tidswell, it will be bittersweet after the Eagles failed to make an impact in the first-grade men's competition this year. Good luck to all the contenders for the award!

Don't forget the Cowra Eagles presentation night on Saturday September 7 from 5:30pm at the Cowra Rugby Union Club.
