NICK Daicos has reclaimed the lead in the race for the Sharp EIT Solutions AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award, while Fremantle midfielder Caleb Serong has moved into the top three.

Serong picked up six votes in that same game to move to 72, while Patrick Voss was awarded nine votes for his six-goal haul for the Dockers.

There were five 10-vote games in round 19, with Tom Green, Isaac Heeney, Kozzy Pickett, Tim Taranto and Alex Neal-Bullen all getting a perfect score from the coaches.

Swans ruck Brodie Grundy picked up another eight votes to move to seventh spot, making it 52 votes from a possible 60 in his past six games.

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 Sharp EIT Solutions AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award.
