I've often thought what is the highest individual honour a football player can achieve. And there are many honours any player can strive to.
We have
Coleman
Brownlow
ALFCA player of the year
AFLPA player of the year
<Insert media organisation> player of the year
Club Best and Fairest
Plenty of others....
I reckon the Brownlow used to be the pinnacle for an individual but that has been taken over as a midfielders award in the last 10 or so years.
The Coaches Association award is a quality honour as they are opposition trying to limit you, who they think they need to stop
What are your thoughts?
I think a Club Best and Fairest cannot be bested. It's your own coaches voting on how you played your role that they asked of you for your team.
In my mind a Club Best and Fairest in a Premiership year is the pinnacle
