KentOnline team-of-the-week features players from eight clubs

Players from eight clubs feature in KentOnline's team-of-the-week.

From a teenager starring in the heat of a play-off battle to a club legend scoring on his return, we've picked out the leading performers from Saturday's action.

Have a look at our XI and let us know what you think by using the comments section or by tweeting @kentonlinesport.

Simon Overland's display was in vain as Sittingbourne lost 3-0 to Whyteleafe but take nothing away from the big keeper who made a collection of superb saves, including a penalty, as Brickies played a man down for almost 70 minutes.

Seventeen-year-old right-back Liam Smith looks well at home after breaking into the Tonbridge Angels team, helping Steve McKimm's side move back into the Ryman Premier play-off places with a 2-1 win at Hendon.

Richard Orlu was as solid as you like as National League play-off chasers Dover claimed an impressive 2-0 win over Gateshead, while Matt Bourne led Faversham to a clean sheet in a goalless draw at Lewes in Ryman South.

At left-back we've gone for Tom Mills of Maidstone, his usual reliable self in defence but also having an influence high up the pitch as United beat Barrow 2-1 to make it eight unbeaten.

Mills' Stones team-mate Stuart Lewis is in midfield after crowning an all-action display with the winner.

He's joined by Sam Deering of Ebbsfleet, who was at the heart of everything in a superb performance as Daryl McMahon's men came from a goal down to beat Welling 5-1 and stay three points off the National South summit.

And what a return for Folkestone record appearance holder Micheal Everitt who came out of retirement and scored in a 2-0 win over Met Police in the Ryman Premier.

In attack, Ricky Miller was outstanding once again, scoring both goals in Dover's win against Gateshead and taking his tally for the season to 39.

Ebbsfleet striker Danny Kedwell scored twice, including a penalty, in their comeback win against Welling.

And there were also two goals for Daniel Akindayini - superb strikes, too - as Margate beat Truro 2-1 to move off the foot of National South.
