The race for the AFLCA Champion Player of the Year Award is set to go down to the wire with the top five separated by just five votes.
SUNS Vice-captain Touk Miller is currently two votes from the lead after polling seven in the match against the Western Bulldogs on the weekend.
He sits on 83 votes behind Dogs captain Marcus Bontempelli and Demons ball magnet Clayton Oliver on 85.
With just five games to go, the award is still anyone’s to claim.
