Mia King and Nicole Bresnehan were allocated two votes each with Suns players Charlie Rowbottom and Lauren Bella rounding out the voting with one apiece.

Garner also earned a Round 1 AFLPA MVP nomination thanks to her influential outing.

The 28-year-old claimed the AFLPA MVP Award back in 2020 in a season that saw her reap the benefits after moving to the midfield.
