[2] Edward 'Carji' Greeves of the Geelong Football Club won the medal by polling seven votes during the 1924 VFL season.
Greeves' outstanding season is further outlined by the fact that he is one of the youngest players to win the award, aged just 20 years 312 days at the time.
[5] Greeves' seven best-on-ground awards in just fourteen games played[6] is another outstanding statistic.
The team that polled the most votes, Geelong, missed the 1924 VFL finals by two games, finishing 5th.
[4] The Brownlow Medal was presented to the player at League Headquarters, without the fanfare, glitz and glamour of the award today.
