Defender Nick Blakey earned two votes for his transition game, which was crucial to securing the Swans the 16.9 (105) to 14.13 (97) win on the road. Blakey had 26 disposals and 517 metres gained.

Captain Callum Mills rounded out the vote getters for Sydney, earning one vote for his 22 disposals and five tackles.

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 AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award.
