Fans have yet again voted Matt Crouch best afield from Adelaide’s Qualifying Final win over Greater Western Sydney as the young midfielder continues to chase Hertz Fans’ MVP leader Rory Sloane.
It’s become a clear race in two through the second half of the season for the fan-voted award.
Crouch topped the polls for the second match in a row with a 36-vote haul against the Giants. Fans rewarded the 22-year-old’s outstanding 31-possession performance, which included seven clearances, seven tackles and four inside 50ms.
It marked the fourth consecutive game Crouch has featured within the top three vote-getters.
Crouch is now within 33 votes of Sloane, who missed the first final after undergoing an appendectomy.
Brad Crouch polled 26 votes against the Giants to continue his rich recent run of form. The tough onballer now sits in sixth place on the overall leaderboard.
Evergreen mid/forward Richard Douglas also polled strongly (11 votes) after collecting 20 possessions, seven clearances and kicking two goals last Thursday night.
Livewire forward Eddie Betts (eight votes) and ruckman Sam Jacobs (six) rounded out the top five.
Fans can login or register here to vote for their three top Crows after every game of the 2017 season.
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 Hertz Crows Fans’ MVP.
Don’t forget, Crows fans can take advantage of 20 per cent off selected car rentals courtesy of Club partner Hertz. Click here for more information.
