Crows vice-captain Rory Sloane has earned back-to-back Hertz Fans’ Most Valuable Player titles.
The courageous midfielder held off a fast-finishing Matt Crouch to win this year’s award by 21 votes.
Crouch stormed into contention with a brilliant back half of the year. He featured inside the top three vote-getters in Adelaide’s last six matches and was selected as the Club’s best performer in Saturday’s Grand Final.
But the 22-year-old unable to bridge the gap to runaway leader Sloane, who held his place at the top of the leaderboard with another 32 votes from the decider against Richmond.
Reliable backman Rory Laird, who led the count in the early rounds, claimed third place overall with 282 votes.
Sam Jacobs polled 195 votes to finish in fourth ahead of Brad Crouch, who finished the season strongly to claim fifth place on 159 votes.
