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.
Fremantle
Caleb Serong
This is the first real toss-up, but the edge goes to Serong over superstar teammate Andrew Brayshaw.
Brayshaw did poll more votes in our own MVP voting (183 to 182), but Serong earned more coaches' votes for the AFLCA Champion Player of the Year award. While not directly correlated, Serong ousted Brayshaw in the coaches' votes last season too and ultimately beat out his midfield partner on Brownlow night, 28-22.
The duo likely have stolen enough votes off each other that they won't feature too prominently at the head of the race, but who comes out on top between the pair will be an intriguing side-show to watch for Dockers fans.
Who else?
Andrew Brayshaw
Luke Jackson
Shai Bolton
