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.
Gold Coast
Noah Anderson
Another major 50/50 call takes place with the Suns, as Matthew Rowell has equally had a dominant season to the co-AFLCA Champion Player of the Year recipient.
However, Anderson's performances in the Suns' wins might do enough to see him edge out his star midfield teammate. Anderson has posted fewer than 25 disposals in just three of Gold Coast's wins, while Rowell has been effectively shut down in five of them.
Anderson's ball-winning will likely take him toward the pointy end of the Brownlow count as an outside chance to snare the medal, having averaged close to 30 disposals and seven clearances per game in the Suns' most successful season in club history.
Who else?
Matthew Rowell
