Koroibete's stunning form at the Rugby World Cup was enough for him to become the first winger bestowed with the country's premier player prize, awarded since 2002.
The former Melbourne Storm rugby league star came alive midway through his third season in rugby union, producing a series of scintillating performances.
Long-range tries against Samoa in Sydney and Georgia in Shizuoka were among the most spectacular solo scores of the year while clean breaks were a regular feature during his four appearances at the global tournament.
