Jack McVey and Furo Davies complete September’s top three, trailing their St George’s team-mate by only a couple of points.

Peel’s Shaun Kelly has made a promising start to his time with the Sunset City side and he was fourth in the standings a further half a point back on Davies.

Corinthians pair Connor Gorman and Cameron Lee complete the top six after helping the Whites to win all of their games in the first four weeks of the season.

St George’s skipper Frank Jones is among a quartet of players on eight points.

Also included in that bracket are Young Player of the Month Tom Smith, Corinthians goalkeeper Adam Killey and Laxey’s Joe Walters.
