The build-up to the AFL 2025 Grand Final kicks off on Monday with the AFL's night of nights - the Brownlow Medal count.
The AFL's top players will head to Crown Melbourne to hear the vote-getters be named for every game this season, with the umpires giving out votes on a 3, 2, 1 system for each game.
Ahead of the night, Collingwood superstar Nick Daicos appears to be the early favourite, though Adelaide captain Jordan Dawson and Geelong recruit Bailey Smith will each make a strong case to snag the famous medal.
So, who's likely to poll best from your favourite club? We explore this question, using the results of Zero Hanger's 2025 AFL MVP as a guide.
West Coast
Brady Hough
It won't shock anyone to hear that the Eagles will poll the fewest Brownlow votes on Monday night, let alone rake in even more than 10 votes collectively, considering how historically terrible they were in 2025.
Even in their lone win against St Kilda, Saints midfielder Jack Sinclair collected 38 disposals and forward Jack Higgins kicked five goals, meaning there's a good chance two of the three potential vote-getters from that Round 10 clash aren't West Coast players.
Ironically, though, the obvious way to tell who's going to have the best chance of taking home the most votes for an Eagle this season is from that win against St Kilda, as even in West Coast's four losses of 10 points or less, the club lacked a stand-out performer compared to the winning side.
That means our tip is Brady Hough, who's 24 disposals and a goal against the Saints set up the 28-point victory, the goal coming at a crucial juncture during the third quarter after St Kilda booted two majors in quick succession.
Who else?
