There was plenty of movement on the overall Brownlow Medal leaderboard, headed by Patrick Dangerfield's move to equal top of the list alongside Gary Ablett Jnr.
Dangerfield began the evening three votes behind his former teammate, and picked up a trio of votes from the umpires in Monday's count, drawing level with Ablett on 262.
But it wasn't the only major move of the night, with the top seven Brownlow Medal vote-getters being current players.
Western Bulldogs captain Marcus Bontempelli shot into third (247 votes) after he secured 34 votes from the umpires.
Bontempelli also shot into outright leader of the most three-vote games (60) in the history of the Brownlow, eclipsing Dangerfield's previous record of 56. Brisbane star Lachie Neale joined the Bulldogs star in bypassing the veteran Cat (57).
Neale's 20 votes placed him inside the top five all-time voters (245), while Patrick Cripps (232) and Scott Pendlebury (230) further etched themselves in history.
Not surprisingly, 2026 Brownlow Medal winner and Pies superstar Nick Daicos is ranked 33rd in all-time votes (156) in only five completed seasons. For comparison, he is only three votes behind Shane Crawford; seven behind two-time winner Adam Goodes.
Daicos has already surpassed Christian Petracca (145), Clayton Oliver (144) and Ollie Wines (133).
