The 10 nominees each month are selected via FotMob’s rating system. The 10 players with the highest FotMob rating (from 0.0 to 10.0) across each voting period are selected as the monthly nominees for the Shark Player of the Month award.
The April eligibility period included Rounds 21-23 of the Ninja A-League season, with games between March 28 and April 20 considered in the FotMob rating system.
Yallop’s April form was highlighted by a hat-trick scored in a 4-4 draw with Western Sydney Wanderers in the penultimate round of the regular season.
Thanks to her hat-trick against the Wanderers, the Brisbane Roar captain finished the season on 12 goals, just three goals behind Golden Boot winner Holly McNamara and level in second place on the top-scoring leaderboard with Emily Gielnik.
