There's a pair of Wallabies close on his heels, with Ben Donaldson and Charlie Cale also scoring big.
Blues powerhouse Caleb Clarke was the lone player to score perfectly, inspiring them to victory over the Crusaders.
The captains and head coaches of both teams nominate their top three players from the opposing team each week, allocating three votes, two votes, and one vote, respectively.
On top of this, the Player of the Year voting process has been bolstered for the upcoming season, with a panel of respected rugby media identities from across Australia, New Zealand and Fiji assembled to contribute votes on each game.
