Western Bulldogs captain Marcus Bontempelli is among the names to headline the 2024 AFL Awards, with the Dogs star named skipper of this year's All-Australian side while picking up two other honours on the night.
Bontempelli was awarded his third Leigh Matthew Trophy (Most Valuable Player) by the AFLPA and was also voted as the game's best captain by his peers.
Geelong's Ollie Dempsey took out the Rising Star Award with 52 of a possible 55 votes, while Harry Sheezel (Coaches' Best Young Player) and Harley Reid (AFLPA's Best First-Year Player) were also awarded as some of the best emerging players in the game.
GWS forward Jesse Hogan, who was one of seven first-time selections in this year's All-Australian side, was officially awarded this year's Coleman Medal.
