HOW DOES JOHNNY WARREN MEDAL VOTING WORK?
The Johnny Warren Medal is the A-League’s Player of the Year award.
The judging panel for the Johnny Warren Medal included former professional players, referees, technical experts and members of the media for the A-League regular season.
Panel members from each of the four groups were appointed to vote on a 3-2-1 basis on every match.
A member of the following groups voted on all A-League regular season matches:
- A former NSL and/or A-League player
- A member of the Football Australia Technical staff including the Socceroos coaching staff
- The match officials that officiated on the game
- A senior member of the Australian football media including A-League broadcast partners, print and radio journalists
At the end of the A-League Season, all votes are tallied independently by leading accountancy firm Ernst & Young and the player or players who receive the most votes will be named the winner of the Johnny Warren Medal.
