Each of the players implicated in the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks supplements scandal were banned from attending, or receiving awards at the 2014 Dally M Awards ceremony in September as a result of the investigation into the club's supplements scandal; captain Paul Gallen was also ruled ineligible for the Brad Fittler Medal for being the best performed New South Wales player during their victorious State of Origin series campaign.
