Jack Sinclair has reclaimed his title as the Saints' leading AFLCA vote-getter for 2023, with another perfect 10 leapfrogging him past Callum Wilkie and into fourth position overall at the conclusion of Round 6.

The reigning Best & Fairest was sublime as St Kilda consolidated its spot on top of the ladder with a 22-point win over Carlton at Marvel Stadium, starting the game off half-back before being swung on-ball in the second half to great effect.

Sinclair finished with a team-high 27 disposals at 92.6 per cent efficiency, seven intercepts, five rebound-50s, three clearances and 453 metres gained in what was his fourth time featuring in the coaches' votes this season, with his cleanliness by foot (90.5 per cent) a particular highlight.

Bradley Hill (three votes), Dan Butler (two), Rowan Marshall (one) and Seb Ross (one) joined Sinclair in the Saints' pollers for Round 6, while Carlton's Patrick Cripps (seven) and Adam Cerra (six) featured for the Blues.

Sinclair now sits behind Nick Daicos (45), Marcus Bontempelli (33) and Jeremy Cameron (33) on the AFL coaches' votes leaderboard.
