This caused a betting plunge on Kelly.Corey McKernan polled the same number of votes as Voss and Hird, but due to a tribunal suspension during the year was deemed ineligible to win the award. This caused some to call for the rules to be changed to allow suspended players to still be eligible. The eligibility rules have remained the same since then, relying on the fairest section of best and fairest to continue to exclude suspended players from being able to win the award. McKernan went on to be a member of North Melbourne's 1996 AFL Grand Final winning team, something that both Voss and Hird said that they would prefer over winning the medal."@en }
