IT'S a perfect 10 for ‘Simmo’!
In his 300th AFL game, champion Blues defender Kade Simpson has received the maximum amount of coaches votes for his stellar performance against Port Adelaide on Saturday.
Collecting a game-high 37 disposals, Simpson amassed 21 kicks, 16 handballs and eight rebound 50s – once again remaining a rock in defence and showing no signs of slowing down.

Simmo was one of five players across Round 15 to take home maximum votes, alongside Orazio Fantasia (Essendon), Max Gawn (Melbourne), Jack Riewoldt (Richmond) and Callan Ward (GWS Giants).
Key forward Charlie Curnow also received seven votes, while midfielder Patrick Cripps earned four votes from the coaches.
