NORTH Melbourne’s Ash Riddell has consolidated her place atop the Sharp EIT Solutions AFLCA Champion Player of the Year leaderboard thanks to a record-breaking 44-disposal performance against Carlton on Saturday.
The prolific midfielder received nine of a possible 10 coaches votes to take her tally to 51, two votes clear of Geelong’s Georgie Prespakis who received eight votes for her role in the Cats’ five-point win over Port Adelaide.
Elsewhere, four players received a perfect 10, while the spread of votes in the Sydney Derby shows the coaches clearly had very different opinions of how players performed.
Every week, the two senior coaches for each game give votes on a 5-4-3-2-1 basis, meaning 10 votes is the maximum a player can get in each round.
The player with the most votes at the end of the home and away season will win the Sharp EIT Solutions AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award.
