The 2003 Crichton Medal was a memorable count with two players sharing the best and fairest award for the first time in Essendon's history. James Hird and Scott Lucas were the joint winners, with Jason Johnson coming third. This year's Crichton Medal is sure to be another fantastic count with a number of players in the mix to win the prestigious award.
Can Adam McPhee top off his sensational season with a best and fairest award? Can James Hird win his fifth Crichton Medal? Was Dean Solomon's second half of the season enough to get him across the line? Will Matthew Lloyd win his first ever best and fairest award? All will be revealed tonight at the TAG Heuer Crichton Medal.
