The Coaches Most Valuable Player votes from last week’s NFNL senior football matches.
Every round, the NFNL senior coaches vote for the best players from their game. The coaches vote for five players, giving them a mark from 1-5. The maximum a player can score is 10 (with five votes from both coaches).
Please note: All votes for Rounds 11-14 of the three NFNL Women’s competitions will be kept private, with the award winners to be announced at the NFNL Senior Presentation Night on September 18.
