The 2024 AFL season is just around the corner, and all eyes will be on players who will dominate the competition this year.
Arguably, not much will change from last year, with most keen to see Nick Daicos and what he can produce this year after an exceptional start to his AFL career.
However, AFL fans will also be closely looking at players around him challenging him for what is notably the highest individual accolade in the league: the Brownlow Medal.
Below we have made a list of six players who are predicted to be leading contenders in the race for Brownlow honours this season.
4. Zak Butters
Zak Butters took his game to a new level in 2023, elevating his status to position himself as one of the best players in the competition at the moment.
The Port midfielder's breakout year was capped off with an equal fourth in the Brownlow and his first John Cahill Medal as Port Adelaide's best and fairest.
He managed to average 27.5 disposals, 5 marks, 4.4 clearances, and 14.4 kicks per game, sending a strong message to the competition about what he is capable of.
It's anticipated Butter will be one of the players to watch in the 2024 season and will be right up there contending again for the Brownlow this year.
