Drew Petrie and Andrew Swallow's excellent form continues to be rewarded after both polled in the coaches votes after North Melbourne's victory over Richmond.

It's Petrie's second consecutive vote-grabbing performance, while Swallow has taken it to another level polling in the previous three matches. He's the first North player to do so this season.

Swallow filled up the stat sheet with 29 possessions, 10 clearances, 3 inside 50's, 4 rebound 50's and 5 tackles, clearly deserving of his nine votes from Brad Scott and Damian Hardwick. Petrie was given the same amount after his match winning efforts in the final term.

Scott Thompson also found himself in the votes for the fourth time this year. His job on Jack Riewoldt widely recognised as a key reason for North picking up the 4-points.

24 possessions, 6 marks and a goal was enough for Brent Harvey to round out the votes for North. It's the sixth game Harvey has polled in this season, behind just Andrew Swallow (10 games) for North.
