2021 Awards

Best & Fairest - Jay-Factory Medal:

In 2021 we see the second awarding of the Jay-Factory Medal. The JF medal is awarded to club's best & fairest player over the season. Votes for the NV Medal are given under a 5-4-3-2-1 system for the highest 5 scoring players each round (bye rounds and Finals/Consolation Finals are excluded). In the event where two or players scores in a round tie, their votes will be halved/divided by 3 etc., for example 5-4-2.5-2.5-1 or 5-4-3-1-1-1, this is to ensure that the total amount of votes available per round remains the same. If two or more players tie on total votes at the conclusion of the count, they will be named joint JF medalists.

Without further ado, it's time to announce the votes!
