How are Dally M votes awarded?
Previously, votes would be awarded by a single judge per game on a three-two-one basis, with three votes for the player deemed best afield.
The identities of the judges were also publicly available.
Under the new system, two unnamed judges, selected from a panel of former players, watch each match and separately award votes on a three-two-one basis, meaning a player can receive a maximum of six votes per match.
Like in the past, votes across the early part of the season were published on Mondays following each round.
After Round 12, voting went behind closed doors until the end of the regular season.
Who is leading the men's Dally M leaderboard?
Upon the completion of Round 12, Broncos enforcer Payne Haas was leading the men's vote count with 30 points.
Panthers star halfback Nathan Cleary trailed him by three points in second place.
