List becomes borked if you try to sort it[edit]

I think the problem is with all the "rowspan" stuff, for when there were multiple winners in a year. Can someone who knows something about tables fix this? Reyk _YO! 03:34, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

#[edit]

"Note: # Indicates that medal was awarded retrospectively as a countback rule was enforced until 1980".

But no entries have a "#". Avalon (talk) 06:17, 30 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done. all fixed now. Thanks for letting us know. The-Pope (talk) 09:18, 30 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Misinformation present in the section about Jobe Watson[edit]

He was never stripped of his Brownlow, this is factually inaccurate. He handed back his Brownlow as a result of accepting that it was tarnished by the supplements scandal, showing more integrity in doing so than Sam Mitchell could ever dream of having. 1.127.106.152 (talk) 11:39, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct. I have edited the wording in the article. See what you think. HiLo48 (talk) 00:13, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect: https://www.afl.com.au/news/58994/afl-commission-statement-on-2012-brownlow-medal the critical phrase is "ruled that Jobe Watson was not eligible" - his handing back was acknowledged, but the title was nonetheless stripped from him. Aspirex (talk) 00:22, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
