Sam Jacobs and Rory Sloane have jumped into the top three of the Crows Fans’ MVP race following their standout performances against Hawthorn at the MCG.
Jacobs attracted more than a third of the total vote for his stellar display in the ruck on Saturday, where he amassed 43 hit-outs and a round-high six contested marks.
The 202cm Crow, who turns 29 next week, now sits in second place on the Crows Fans’ MVP ladder behind defender Rory Laird, who was the runaway vote-getter in Round One.
Sloane earned 27 per cent of the vote to jump into third place overall off the back of his influential second half at the MCG. The Crows vice-captain finished with 25 possessions, a game-high eight clearances, six marks, six inside 50ms and a goal.
A career-best three goals helped dashing wingman David Mackay earn just over 10 per cent of the vote from Round Two.
Tom Lynch and Andy Otten were the other major vote-getters from the victory over the Hawks.
Laird leads Jacobs from Sloane, Rory Atkins and Charlie Cameron in the top five on the overall Crows Fans’ MVP leaderboard.

One lucky participant after each round will claim a signed Hertz Crows football, courtesy of the Club’s official match ball partner, simply by voting.
Polls opens immediately after every Crows game. Users assign three votes to the player they deem Adelaide’s best contributor, two to the second-best and one vote for their third most valuable Crow in each match.
Polling closes on Tuesday at 4.30pm (SA time) after each round when the final votes are collated using a points system.
A maximum of 100 points per game can be awarded to the entire team. Each player is given a percentage of the total votes received to go towards their season tally (For example, if 1,200 votes were placed in Round One and Taylor Walker receives 600 then that is the equivalent of 50 per cent of all votes for that round and he would receive 50 points towards his season tally. If the second best player received 120 votes from 1,200 then that is the equivalent of 10 per cent and he will get 10 votes towards the season tally).
This process is repeated each round and players accumulate points towards their season tally. The player at the top of the leaderboard at the end of the season is crowned the Crows Fans’ MVP.
