If a player is reported and found guilty of an offence in the Grand Final are they eligible for the Browlow Medal the following season?
Yes, the player is eligible to win the Brownlow medal the following year. To be deemed ineligible, a player must be found guilty and suspended from an incident in a match where Brownlow votes were cast in the year of the award. Suspensions resulting from Pre-Season, Practice, Exhibition, State of Origin or finals matches have no bearing on eligibility.
