Jake Hinds, Brodie Palfreyman and skipper Jobi Harper are three of the four leaders of the TSL player of the year award, which is voted on after each game.

Kingborough's Eddie Cole is the other leader, having picked up three votes in the Tigers' win over Glenorchy on Saturday.

Hinds and Palfreyman joined their premiership skipper in pole position with their performances on the weekend.

Six majors to Hinds saw him claim the three votes, having kicked five the week before, while Palfreyman continued his consistent 2022 with 23 disposals.

Alec Wright polled for the second consecutive week thanks to his 24 disposals and 10 marks.

Hinds has also taken an early-season lead in the Peter Hudson Medal, which goes to the competition's leading goalkicker.

The 22-year-old has enjoyed dominating the Blues' goal-square, booting 20 goals over the first five matches to lead the award from Kingborough's Tyler Carter (14) and Clarence's Colin Garland (12).

Strong goalkicking has also spread to Launceston's development league side, with Jett Maloney (15) and Aidan O'Connor (14), who have played senior football this season, leading the way.

Kingborough's Cole grabbed his three votes in the side's 108-point win over Glenorchy courtesy of a 27-disposal performance which included 11 inside 50s.

His skipper Clifford had 24 touches and nine clearances, while Magpies recruit Blake Waight, who has been a shining light during the side's dark start to the season, had 32 disposals and 10 marks in a match that would have scored him 149 AFL Fantasy points.

Monday's Anzac Day game saw Lauderdale's Sam Siggins claim the three votes despite teammate Harry Richmond taking home the Anzac Remembrance Medal in the 19-point win.
