To perform well in a final is one thing in footy, while to perform well in a Grand Final is another calling only some across the game's history have risen to.
The prestigious Norm Smith Medal is awarded to these players who are up to the challenge and make sure that they are forever immortalised for their heroic play.
Before Fremantle faces Brisbane in this week's Grand Final, I decided to take a look at this century's best Grand Final performances and rated them from 1-10 based on how impactful and memorable they were.

West Coast, 2018 v Collingwood
Facing a losing deficit for the majority of the game, the Eagles had to play the best they ever could if they were to get past the Pies, and Shuey certainly did.
Whether it was through scrapping in the contest or chasing down midfielders, Shuey was doing it all in a display of workload that is rarely seen on the biggest stage.
Leading the Eagles in most stat categories with 34 disposals, nine clearances and eight tackles, the Norm was never in doubt despite a heroic finish by Dom Sheed.
