Wallabies flyer opens POTY gap, AB midfielder claims maximum points
Last week, Wallabies speedster Max Jorgensen and Moana Pasifika captain Miracle Faiilagi were on the maximum points after their impressive performances in round one.
Not much has changed from last week’s votes at the top of the table, with Jorgensen claiming seven points from his game against the Fijian Drua in Sydney, topping the table after two rounds with 15 overall votes.
Cale, who scored another two tries against the Crusaders on Sunday afternoon after last week’s double, sits in second place with 13 votes, three behind Jorgensen.
In third with 12 points, is Chiefs and All Blacks midfielder Quinn Tupaea, who claimed the most points from a specific round two fixture with eight from the game at Forsyth Barr Stadium on Saturday.
The award voting table will be released every Tuesday at 10am NZT, until round ten when the voting process and numbers goes behind closed doors.
