St Kilda superstar Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera capped a brilliant individual season with his first Trevor Barker Award as the Saints' 2025 best and fairest player.
The 22-year-old polled 313 votes to finish well clear of last year's winner Cal Wilkie (238 votes) and two-time recipient Jack Sinclair (223).
Wanganeen-Milera, who signed a two-year contract extension in August tipped to make him the league's first $2 million man per season, added the medal to his first All-Australian honour.
An athletic defender who spent time in the midfield and up forward, NWM averaged almost 30 disposals, 5.3 marks and more than two tackles per game.

The only thing eluding Wanganeen-Milera and the Saints was on-field success, finishing 12th last season, six wins out of the top eight.
With the club retooling under Ross Lyon, Wanganeen-Milera is expecting that to change soon.
"I'm looking forward to the next few years on the Saints and keen to make some change around here and get some success," he said when accepting the award.
St Kilda president Andrew Bassat also had jokes on the awards night, especially when it came to Wanganeen-Milera's two Brownlow votes for his extraordinary effort leading the Saints to victory over Melbourne back in round 20.
Jack Viney ended up with the three votes.
"No season that finishes without September action is a great season," Bassat said.
"But there's been plenty of progress and lots of highlights, none more so of course than the remarkable record-breaking comeback against Melbourne.
"(It) involved one of the most remarkable, memorable individual performances of all time - of course, from Jack Viney.
"Nasiah played a decent game that day as well."
