With the NRL taking Dally M votes behind closed doors after round 12, The Lurker has picked up the slack to hand out the 3-2-1 for every game, every week. His couch imprint is already formidable. Check out the final week of official voting here.
Call it a man-crush or whatever you like, but Kalyn Ponga is an actual freak of nature.
On a team that boasts just six wins, the young sensation is still earning points in a losing side, claiming the one vote in my eyes in a Melbourne-dominant Sunday afternoon.
Believe it or not - a 20-year-old is currently the competition's premier player.
Don't rule out James Maloney though. Penrith had a major hiccup in their 2018 campaign as Roosters trio Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Boyd Cordner and Joey Manu claimed the votes in their fixture to halt the Panthers veteran's lead.
There's still 10 rounds left in the calendar, but it appears this one is a two-man race.
If you're after a roughie, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck is one who always seems to sneak his way onto the vote count.
Like Ponga, every time New Zealand register a win, their skipper usually has his say, taking home the three points after toppling the Cowboys on Friday night.
Origin is almost coming to a close though and history says this is the time the Warriors begin to fall off the face of the earth.
