Ulster number eight Roger Wilson has received the Ulster Player of the Year award.

Ireland hooker Rory Best has been awarded the Ulster Personality of the Year accolade.

Best's set piece play and his robust style around the park left Eddie O'Sullivan with little choice but to keep picking him this season. Still a youngster at 24, he has fast become the cornerstone of a young Ulster pack.

Wilson played in every one of Ulster's matches this season and has had more minutes on the pitch than any other player.

David Pollock was voted as the Young Player of the Year. He was captain of the Grand Slam-winning Ireland U-20s this year, and was recently rewarded with a two-year full-time contract.
