Sydney Morning Herald chief rugby league reporter Adrian Proszenko has been recognised for Excellence in Journalism at the annual Walkley Awards, held in Brisbane tonight.It was the second Walkley award for Proszenko, whose reporting on the Parramatta Eels salary cap scandal earned him the prize ahead of nominees from Radio National and ABC TV's Four Corners.AdvertisementProszenko revealed the inside machinations at the Eels that led the NRL to dock the club 12 competition points, impose a $1 million fine and enforce the deregistration of the so-called 'Gang of Five'.Here are the stories that won Proszenko professional recognition and shone a light on a club in crisis:NRL investigating Parramatta Eels over Anthony Watmough third-party dealSlippery Eels: The inside story on how Parramatta unravelledParramatta Eels salary cap crisis: Corey Norman allegedly given cash payments in car park

    Good on you buddy. Your obsession with trying to bring the Eels down every chance you get has finally paid off.

    I hope he remembered to thank Spags for all the inside info during his acceptance speech.

    No matter how successful you are it is very important that you never forget the little people.

    Is there a journalist that hasn't won an award? It's an awardathon.

    This must be a gee up. There were better, more balanced articles about the salary cap drama than any from Proszenko. Anyway, sucked in Adrian. You wanted the club to curl up and die, but we will be so much stronger for putting up with you pathetic attemps to destabilise the club.

    I wonder why he never extended his Journalistic Excellence to follow through on Seward, Irvine, Nolan, Managers, Todd etc
