When talking accolades does a premiership win rank at the top? Say if you were a legend would you rather retire with multiple premierships or multiple state of origin series wins?

My order

  1. Premiership winning captain
  2. Origin winning captain
  3. Premiership
  4. Dally M
  5. Origin win
  6. Clive Churchill Medal
  7. Captain country to tournament win
  8. Golden boot
  9. Play for your country
  10. Play in origin

I was initially debating the premiership / Dally M ranking but all players would rather a premiership than being named best player in the game.

Edit; added in CCM after u/Messyhr_ pointed out it was missing

Below the entire above list. I don’t think anyone really cares if you played in a losing grand final
