Sydney Swans star Adam Goodes has claimed his second Brownlow medal tonight, finishing three votes ahead of Western Bulldogs veteran and sentimental favourite Scott West.
The 26-year-old has the opportunity this Saturday to add to his already impressive collection of two Brownlow's and one premiership medallion with another flag against West Coast in the grand final.
It will be the sixth time in seven seasons, a Brownlow medallist has gone on to play in that season's grand final, including last year's winner Ben Cousins.
Brisbane's Simon Black, in 2002, was the last player to play in a premiership after winning the Brownlow.
