With the off-season rolling through for clubs as their 2023 campaigns come to a close, best and fairest counts will begin to take place.
Across the course of the coming months, all 18 clubs are set to host their very own night of nights to celebrate the season that was and recognise their best player of 2023, among other awards.
Below is each AFL club's best and fairest winner, top vote-getters, and other award winners as they're announced.
St Kilda
St Kilda defender Jack Sinclair has claimed his second straight Trevor Barker Award after a stellar 2023 campaign, polling 237 votes to finish nine ahead of fellow backman Callum Wilkie.
The back-to-back best and fairest titles come over a dominant 18-month spell for Sinclair, who has emerged as one of the premier ball winners in the competition through St Kilda's backline and midfield groups.
The award adds to an All-Australian blazer and top 10 finish in the coaches voting for 2023 as the Saints made a return to the finals picture in Sinclair's first year as a leadership group member.
Fellow All-Australian and vice-captain Wilkie finished in second, with ruckman Rowan Marshall rounding out the podium. Second-year pair Mitch Owens and Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera both finished in the top five for votes polled.
The young pair shared the Best Emerging Player Award, while Wilkie was also recognised with the Team Trademark Award.
