Best and Fairest

Before 1935 a variety of awards were given out, but it was not until that year that an actual "Best and Fairest" club championship was established.

Best player awards before 1935 include;

Year	Winner
1934	Percy Beames

In 1943 the championship became known as the Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Cup in honor of the dual premiership player and fighter pilot who died during World War 2.

The cup was later replaced with a medal and has been awarded under various voting systems since it's inception.
