Adelaide has been overlooked in the latest round of voting for the AFL Coaches Association Player of the Year award.
No Crows polled in the Club’s 59-point loss to North Melbourne at Blundstone Arena on Saturday.
Kangaroos forward Jarrad Waite received a perfect 10 votes from coaches Don Pyke and Brad Scott following his six-goal haul.
Roos midfielder Ben Cunnington attracted eight votes with Sam Gibson, Luke McDonald, Scott Thompson (all three votes) Kayne Turner (two) and Mason Wood (one) also recognised.
Crows vice-captain Rory Sloane retains his place at the top of the overall leaderboard despite failing to add to his tally for the first time since the opening round.
The courageous onballer heads West Coast’s Elliot Yeo by four votes after seven rounds of voting with dual Brownlow Medallist Gary Ablett ranked third on 32 votes.
Waite was among four players to poll a maximum 10 votes in Round Seven alongside Sydney’s Lance Franklin, Melbourne midfielder Jack Viney and Fremantle speedster Bradley Hill.
