Eddie Betts was the fans’ choice as the best Crow in Saturday night’s Showdown win.

But it was a tight race, with Betts (37 points) edging out Showdown Medallist Matt Crouch (33).

Laird, who is ranked second overall behind Rory Sloane, was the next best with seven points and Sloane added another six points to his tally (426).

Voting for the fans’ MVP opens after every Crows game and stays open until 4.30pm (SA time) on Tuesday.

Assign three votes to the player you deem to be the best Crows player, two votes to the second best player and one vote to the third best.

At the end of the voting period all the votes are added up but there are a maximum of 100 points per game that can be awarded to the entire team. Each player is then given a percentage of the total votes received to go towards their season tally.

At the end of the year the player who is at the top of the season leaderboard is crowned the Fans’ Most Valuable Player, thanks to The Social Wine Club.
