The challengers are keeping within striking distance as Southport’s Danny Wise maintains his lead in the Syd Guildford Trophy count.
Tuesday 13 July 2010
It had to happen eventually – for the first time in six weeks, Syd Guildford Trophy leader Danny Wise has not polled a vote.
However, the Southport skipper was able to maintain his four-vote advantage over Cameron Ilett after the NT Thunder star was also restricted by a tagger last weekend.
There is a new man in outright third position after Broadbeach co-captain Dayne Zorko polled four votes in his side’s stunning come-from-behind win over Brisbane at Giffin Park in Round 13.
Zorko is ineligible for the Grogan Medal on votes cast by umpires for being suspended twice this season, but he remains will in contention for the $750 Syd Guildford prize.
He has moved to 22 votes, nine behind Wise, while 2010 recruits Darren Pfeiffer (Southport) and Jamie Sheahan (Aspley) moved alongside Jacob Gough in equal fourth place.
Todd Featherstone and Dean Page also moved up the top 10 after attracting votes in Labrador’s win over Southport and Mt Gravatt’s victory at Aspley respectively.
The final round of Syd Guildford votes to be made public will be allocated next weekend, before the voting goes into secret for the final month of the season.
