WESTERN Bulldogs star Marcus Bontempelli has surged into the top three in the AFLCA's Champion Player award, while Greater Western Sydney's Toby Bedford has been given 10 votes for his tagging role on Port Adelaide's Zak Butters.
Bontempelli was one of four players to get a perfect 10 votes from round 14, along with Bedford, Sydney's Joel Amartey and Hawthorn's James Sicily, after his stunning performance against Fremantle on Saturday.
>> SCROLL DOWN TO SEE ALL THE VOTES
The Bulldogs skipper has moved to 63 votes for the season, behind only Collingwood's Nick Daicos (74) and Sydney's Isaac Heeney (85).
Daicos (seven votes) and Heeney (five) also added to their tallies on the weekend.
Both Daicos and Bontempelli will have the bye in round 15, giving Heeney a chance to extend his lead at the top.
Bedford was rewarded for his excellent shutdown job on Butters in the Giants' win over the Power on Sunday, with the GWS player also picking up 16 touches and a goal.
