Showdown Medal
The Showdown Medal is the medal awarded to the player adjudged best on ground in the Showdown AFL match between Adelaide and Port Adelaide. It is thus similar to the Ross Glendinning Medal awarded in Western Derby games. However, no medal is awarded if the teams meet in a final, as they did in 2005.
The Showdown Medal was first presented in Showdown VII, Round 7, 2000.[1] It was formerly known as the "West End Medal", but is currently sponsored by Balfours.[2]
For Showdown 39 in round 16, 2015, the Showdown Medal was named the Phillip Walsh Medal, after the late Adelaide coach Phil Walsh.[3]
