The umpires might not look at the stats for the Brownlow, but it seems the coaches certainly do when they vote for the best and fairest.
Nice one, Lincoln. Small thing I noticed: you said Newcombe was taken in the 2019 MSD, it was actually 2021. That's looking like the strongest MSD ever because a bunch of talented Victorian kids had their 2020 seasons impacted by Covid.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Mateo. I've corrected this in the text.
