The Norm Smith Medal goes to the player adjudged best afield in the Grand Final, and if Monday night's Brownlow Medal count is anything to go by, Lachie Neale and Nick Daicos are good at drawing votes.
But the Norm Smith isn't voted by the umpires, instead, it's a five-member AFL-appointed panel of ex-players and journalists who will determine the winner. But like the Brownlow, the Norm Smith is typically a midfielder's medal, so consider that.
When you think of the Norm Smith Medal, there are many elite footballers that come to mind. Dustin Martin, Luke Hodge and Nathan Buckley just to name a few. However, every so often the award is given to a player that not many would have expected they'd have the impact they did. Names like Jason Johannisen (2016) and Brian Lake (2013) are some rare examples of this.
This year, we've predicted each club's best chances of having a 'smokey' Norm Smith winner. This isn't to suggest these players aren't 'elite', but more names that not many would expect.
3. Mason Cox
As he continues to defy the odds, Mason Cox has found himself playing in another Grand Final.
While Cox has had his ups and downs like many players, many would point to his performance in the 2018 preliminary final against Richmond as arguably his most notable.
That night, he took eight contested marks and kicked three goals against the hot premiership favourites, helping book Collingwood's place in the Grand Final.
This isn't the only time we've seen Cox dominate a big game. The American Pie had a career-high 21 disposals to go with eight marks and an unlikely goal on the run which helped him secure the maximum possible coaches votes against Melbourne in the Queen's Birthday game last year.
Given Cox has done it on multiple occasions, we expect the big Magpie to be a real chance to be a match-winner.
