The Dally M 20 in the context of the 2025 NRL Dally M Awards refers to Round 20 of the NRL season, after which the official Dally M leaderboard is closed to the public. The 2025 NRL Dally M Medal ceremony is scheduled for Wednesday, October 1, 2025, which is the event where the awards, including the player of the year, are announced. The leaderboard for the Dally M voting is kept behind closed doors after Round 20, preventing further public updates on the standings before the final awards event.
