The Albury spearhead tallied votes in only three matches.
He snared two against Corowa-Rutherglen in round 11, blasting a season-high 16 goals.
Team-mate Brayden O’Hara won best on ground with four goals.
Mellington snared one vote the following week against North Albury after landing 10, while he also picked up another after a seven-goal haul against Yarrawonga in round 15.
The classy left-footer kicked double figures in four matches, but failed to poll after 10 in round eight against Lavington and 12 against Wangaratta Rovers in the penultimate game.
Mellington missed the first six games through suspension.
He needs four goals in Saturday’s grand final against Wangaratta to rack up a century.
