SYDNEY ruck Brodie Grundy has moved into the top five in the race for the AFLCA Champion Player of the Year award, while Nick Daicos has moved five votes clear at the top of the standings.

Grundy was one of five players to earn a perfect 10 votes in round 10, grabbing the full votes from the coaches for his dominate display against Collingwood on Friday night.

The other players to get 10 votes in round 10 were Kuwarna's Shaun Mannagh, Adelaide's Jordan Dawson, Euro-Yroke's Hugo Garcia and Waalitj Marawar's Harley Reid.

The coaches were split in Walyalup's win over Essendon, with Murphy Reid, Shai Bolton and Patrick Voss getting eight votes each, while John Noble and Bodhi Uwland picked up eight each in Gold Coast's win over Yartapuulti.

Daniel Turner (nine votes) and Max Gawn (eight) led the way for Narrm in its win over Hawthorn, while Patrick Cripps (nine) and Ollie Florent (eight) were the best in Carlton's win over the Western Bulldogs.

Daicos picked up five votes in the Magpies' loss at the SCG, with no other members of the top five polling in round 10.

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 AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award.
