Brandon Costin has been named as halfback of the Souths Logan Magpies team, set to take on former coach Tim Sheens and his Wests Tigers at Davies Park, West End this Saturday night.

Also included for the Magpies are Daniel Sorbello and Tanu Wulf, both of whom played for the Canberra Raiders in last week's trial against the North Queensland Cowboys in Rockhampton.

Souths Logan, fresh from winning the prestigious Orara Valley Sevens, last week defeated the Cudgen Hornets 40-12 on the Gold Coast.

The Magpies are this year being coached by former NRL defensive specialist Jason Burnham, another who was mentored in his early days by Sheens.

Kick-off in Saturday night's main game is 7.30pm, with curtain-raisers from 1.15pm. Children 12 and under receive free admission.

Yet to announce a team for the weekend, the Wests Tigers are expected to use the bulk of their top 25-man roster.

VETERAN Brandon Costin has taken out the prestigious Courier-Mail Best and Fairest title, rugby league's longest-running player award.

Polling 19 votes, the Souths Logan Magpies spearhead ousted Redcliffe's Michael Roberts by a slender three-vote margin.

Easts Tigers pair Luke Branighan and Matt Lockyer were tied third on 15 votes when the tally was revealed at a black tie function at Suncorp Stadium's Paddington Room.

The triumph for 34-year-old Costin presented a stunning contrast with last year's recipient of the $5000 cheque, teenage phenomenon Greg Inglis.

Costin led voting for almost the entire season, although Roberts closed in fast, earning four times as many votes in the second half of the season as in the first half.

Other award winners from the gala South East Division awards night included the Men of League Coach of the Year Anthony Griffin (Redcliffe) and Carbine Club Colt of the Year David Tyrrell (Easts).

Michael Wise was named Referee of the Year, while Michael Roberts made up for missing the major prize by winning the BMD Representative Player of the Year.

Fan favourite, the diminutive Steve West (Ipswich) was named FOGS Cup Player of the Year, with Harry Witt (Tweed Heads) winning the same award in the FOGS Colts Challenge.

Three special presentations were made for service to the game, awarded to Ken Cooper of Easts, David Jones of Valleys Juniors and junior league stalwart Bob Brown.

Competition newcomer Tweed Heads had its victory in the Spotless Club Championship recognised to rousing applause.
