A strong team showing in last week’s victory over GWS has seen seven players awarded coaches votes by Darren Crocker and Alan McConnell, the most of any team from Round 3.

The North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos kept their opposition scoreless in the first half and led by 47-points at the final break before running out as 27-point winners.

Ash Riddell was chosen as best on ground by both coaches, and was awarded ten votes for her dominant 23 disposal, 5 tackle and 6 clearance display in midfield.

It was Riddell’s second ten vote performance in three games, and she currently leads the race for the award by one vote over Richmond’s Monique Conti.

Emma Kearney’s strong all-around performance off the half-back flank saw her receive seven votes, as she collected 16 touches and kicked the game’s first goal.
