Jack Sinclair has netted his and the Saints’ first perfect 10-vote game for the year, featuring as one of six St Kilda players to poll following Saturday’s 38-point win over North Melbourne.
Sinclair was prolific playing as a permanent on-baller over the weekend, revving his side to victory with a game-high 33 disposals, eight clearances and two goals to be unanimously judged best afield by coaches Ross Lyon and Alastair Clarkson.
The reigning Trevor Barker Award winner was joined in the votes by eight-gamer Darcy Wilson (eight votes), who was electric between the arcs in tandem with fellow hard-runners Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera (three) and Bradley Hill (three).
