The AFL off-season comes with best and fairest awards to reflect on and reward the best club players from all 18 sides.
As the top eight embark on a finals series, the bottom 10 will look to commemorate and reflect on the year that was, beginning with their awards nights throughout the coming weeks.
Here is each AFL club's 2025 best and fairest winner, as well as other high vote-getters and award winners from each side.
