ADELAIDE skipper Jordan Dawson has picked up his second 10-vote game to start the season to move to the top of the Sharp EIT Solutions AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award standings.
Dawson was one of just three players to pick up a perfect 10 votes from round two, alongside Port Adelaide skipper Connor Rozee and North Melbourne ruck Tristan Xerri.
>> SCROLL DOWN TO SEE ALL THE VOTES
Dawson had 33 disposals against Essendon on Saturday, while Bombers skipper Zach Merrett got four votes for his 36-disposal, four-goal performance.
Dawson also grabbed 10 votes last week for getting 27 disposals and two goals against St Kilda.
Jai Newcombe and Josh Battle (nine votes each) shared the honours from Hawthorn's win over Carlton, while Tom Liberatore and Nick Daicos (eight each) were joint best-on-ground from Friday night's game between Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs.
Brisbane players dominated in their tight win over West Coast, with co-captains Lachie Neale and Harris Andrews getting nine votes each.
Josh Treacy's four-goal haul got him nine votes in Fremantle's loss to Sydney, while Jack Macrae (eight) led the way for St Kilda in their win over Geelong.
Daicos, Rozee and Xerri have all moved into the top six positions after round two.
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.
