A person here at work has posed the following : Has there ever been a team in the GF with 3 brownlow medallists in it ie Voss, Akermanis, Brown? Fitzroy had 3 brownlow medallists playing for them in '34 but not in a GF. anyone?

Collingwood in the 30's with the Collier brothers and Coventry.

Collingwood had 4 winners in its losing 1937 side (Albert & Harry Collier, Des Fothergill & Marcus Whelan), but the latter pair were yet to win their medals.

In 1966, St Kilda had Verdun Howell, Ian Stewart & Ross Smith, but Smith had not yet won his medal.

The Lions will be the 1st Grand Final team to boast 3 players, who have already won Brownlows.
