Five players scored a perfect 20 out of 20 during Round 14 in Zero Tackle’s NRL MVP, with Penrith Panthers star Nathan Cleary reclaiming the lead as his fantastic season rolls on.
Cleary’s perfect 20 in the Panthers’ 68-0 rout of the Tigers has shuffled him back to the top of the leaderboard by 11 votes, with Dylan Edwards securing 3 votes to jump Scott Drinkwater in the queue. They are both double digits behind Cleary.
James Tedesco didn’t score, and is now equal fourth, 29 votes behind Nathan Cleary alongside Haumole Olakau’atu, who scored 20.
Cleary and Olakau’atu were joined by Harry Grant, Selwyn Cobbo and Keano Kini, while Mark Nawaqanitawase, Robert Toia, Ronaldo Mulitalo, Briton Nikora, Leo Thompson and Jacob Kiraz were the other players voted at the top of the pile by at least one judge.
As a reminder of how this works, our panel, comprising Zero Tackle founder Matt Clements, journalist Leo Twemlow, and writer Dan Nichols, alongside myself as editor, will cast votes on a 5-4-3-2-1 basis from each game of the premiership season.
Here are the Round 14 votes.
