The winner of the medal is decided across their exploits both at home and on the road across the entirety of the season. Match officials cast their votes after each game.
In 2021, it was Ollie Wines of Port Adelaide that won the coveted prize, while Patrick Cripps scooped the award in 2022 with the pair both excelling across their campaigns.
Betting on the Brownlow Medal winner is something that can offer a lot of value in a very exciting battle. The fact the top three were separated by a single vote each in 2022 shows that it really was anyone's game in the end.
However, timing your bet is hugely important. With all players accustomed to having ups and downs across the season, it can mean nailing the placement of your bet nabs you even better odds than if you just make your stake without trying to time it, so ensure you keep an eye on the state of the competition as it goes on.
