Welcome to the 2025 Code Sports Brownlow Medal Predictor.

Is it finally going to be Nick Daicos’ year?

Or will a contender rise to steal the medal from under his nose again?

Check out the full leaderboard, club counts and every vote from every game here.

ROUND 20 BREAKDOWN

There were plenty of stunning performances earning three-vote games over the weekend.

Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera has moved into seventh spot on the Brownlow Predictor leaderboard after his ridiculous final minute against Melbourne got St Kilda over the line.

The star Saint has now record three best-on-ground matches in four weeks to surge up the ranks ahead of Andrew Brayshaw and Tom Green.

A top-three finish is a genuine possibility with a number of winnable games coming up for St Kilda.

Matt Rowell is another in brilliant form — to the detriment of Noah Anderson’s Brownlow hopes.

It’s the second time in three weeks now that Rowell has secured the three votes ahead of Anderson, who has been left to pick up two.

Bailey Smith polled for the first time since round 14, but Jeremy Cameron’s 11 goals is tough to go past for maximum votes.

Then there was Nick Daicos.

43 disposals and three goals against the Tigers inches him closer to a first Brownlow Medal.

Daicos now has an eight-vote gap to Anderson with four rounds to go according to our Predictor.

CLUB BY CLUB

Some Brownlow fancies are facing competition from their midfield running mates in the club counts.

At Gold Coast Matt Rowell is now just five votes behind Noah Anderson, while at Freo Andrew Brayshaw has moved to within four of Caleb Serong.

It’s a two-horse race at those clubs, but for others there are a trio of players still in the running.

Max Gawn leads Christian Petracca by one vote in Melbourne’s count, with Kysaiah Pickett not far behind.

At Sydney Isaac Heeney is on 15 votes followed by Chad Warner on 13, but Brodie Grundy is making a late charge on 11.

One huge game from any Eagle would propel them to equal-first in their club count — currently Liam Baker (3 votes) leads the way ahead of Brady Hough and Harley Reid (2 votes each).

Dylan Moore is making a late run to become Hawthorn’s top dog — now just five behind Jai Newcombe who is attempting to overcome some fitness concerns. Will Day has to also be considered given the Hawk is only two best-on-ground performances behind Newcombe.

Tom Liberatore, Marcus Bontempelli and Ed Richards are all right in the mix at the Bulldogs and while Patrick Cripps still hasn’t recorded a three-vote game in our Brownlow Predictor, he has managed to build a small buffer of four votes on Tom De Koning and George Hewett.

Cripps is in a good spot but there’s still a way to go for the Blues skipper to hang on and lead the Carlton count for the fourth year running.

Stay tuned for more Brownlow updates as the season continues.
