Gordon Collis

[1] Collis won the medal in 1964 with 27 votes, although the Carlton Football Club had its worst finish in the VFL at the time, ending the season in 10th position.

Collis credited his optician with the Brownlow win, as in 1963 he struggled to see the ball[1] and "All the other chaps would be coming down as I started to go up.

"[citation needed] This was rectified with contact lenses, resulting in a much improved 1964.

[1] Collis became Carlton's second Medallist in four years, following John James who won in 1961.
