Adelaide is not expected to feature prominently in the Brownlow Medal race. Midfielders Brad and Matt Crouch, along with co-captain Rory Sloane, will compete for votes. The Crows are expected to poll 51 votes according to the AFL.com.au Brownlow predictor. 

Best chance: Brad Crouch
The injury-plagued midfielder enjoyed a consistent season, playing every game and averaging 30.3 disposals. He's expected to poll 12 votes, with seven of those coming in a three-game stretch between rounds 11-13. It would be the most votes he's polled in a season since collecting six votes in 2013. 

Three-vote certainty: Brad Crouch (v Richmond, round 13)
Crouch was influential against an under-manned Tigers, collecting 43 disposals, 11 clearances and six inside 50s in a 33-point victory at Adelaide Oval.

One-vote wonder: Taylor Walker
The Crows co-captain could pick up a vote for his four-goal haul in a 29-point win against St Kilda in round six.

2018 leading vote winner: Rory Laird (19 votes)

Previous winners: Mark Ricciuto (2003) 

Ineligible players: None
