Coleman Medal

The Coleman Medal is an esteemed award in the world of AFL, specifically recognising the league's top goal-scorer each season. It was named in honor of the legendary Essendon full-forward, John Coleman. The award was first presented in 1981, although the medal itself is a replica of the original 1955 medal won by Coleman.

The criteria for winning the Coleman Medal is straightforward - the player who kicks the highest number of goals during the AFL's home-and-away season receives this prestigious award. It's a testament to a player's skill, accuracy, and goal-scoring ability throughout the year.
