Given that it is awarded to the player that performs best at the most important stage of the season, the Norm Smith Medal is one of the most prestigious awards in the AFL.

Although some Grand Finals in recent memory have been lopsided and some have been absolute classics, the one constant is that the Norm Smith Medallist has churned out a hell of a game.

It's what makes this list hard as all past champions have produced all-time performances but we've tried to narrow it down to find the best Norm Smith performance of the past decade.

Dustin Martin [2019]

"Dusty" did it again in 2019 as the Tigers demolished the Giants by 89 points in another dominant display that saw him kick an impressive four goals to go along with 22 disposals.

There was no debate as to who should've got the Norm Smith this time around, as Martin was so damaging with his ability to hit the scoreboard and there was nothing the Giants could do to stop the onslaught.

An all-time great performance from an all-time great player.
