does any one know in past grand final draws if they have given 2 norm smiths ? will lenny hayes be remembered as a dual winner if he wins it again next saturday . I for one think he will all be it wont be the same as say mcleod winning it against seperate opposition .

The Norm Smith is an award that begun after 1977 so its never happened before.....


Channel 7 confirmed moments before yesterday's presentation that there will be another one awarded next week.

However on a side note I did some research for this one but the AFL will only award 22 premiership medals to those that play in the replay.

No

the only reason i can think why a norm smith was awarded yesterday is for all the betting agncies.

if u had a double i.e st kilda to win into hayes for the medal they would have needed to give a refund on the result. just like the brownlow its all about gambling

I had St Kilda/Hayes double but my bet is still pending.

I had Lenny for norm smith and gladly accepted my winnings

Is it carrying over to next week? i wouldve thought that you would lose with that bet

does that mean anyone with st kilda/reiwoldt is still alive etc for next week?

I have no idea if it carries on next week, no email or anything from Sportsbet yet. In truth, the bet is a loss and I've already accepted that but would have no problem if it was still alive next week.

It is all about the betting. I backed juddy, Hayes and the draw. Fair to say I'm flying high at the moment

Surely you're not suggesting the Norm Smith medal is exclusive to a winning or losing team. So are you saying the medal for the best player in a showdown should only be awarded in the event of a win or loss.

i got my odds on hayes at 13 but only put 3$ on due to poor brownlow betting but still handy payout for 3$

Dont see the reasoning there as the umpires dont vote for the norm smith!
