It is named after former Western Australian footballers Ross Glendinning, a Brownlow Medallist with North Melbourne and the inaugural captain of the West Coast Eagles, and Ben Allan, a former Hawthorn premiership player and the inaugural Fremantle captain. The medal, initially named the Ross Glendinning Medal, was first presented in 2001. In 2018, the name was changed to acknowledge both Fremantle's and West Coast's inaugural captains.[1] Retrospective medals were also awarded to the best player from the initial 12 derbies between 1995 and 2000.[2] The medal is voted by selection of media representatives, and joint medals are presented in the event that more than one player finishes with the equal-highest number of votes.[3]
Fremantle's Paul Hasleby won the medal 4 times, currently the most by any player.
Chris Judd is the only player to win the award three times in a row. He did so between 2005 and 2006.Lachie Neale won the award on three occasions.Josh Kennedy won the award on three occasions.
Round 5, 2003: The five media selectors chose Ashley Sampi as the preferred recipient, but Glendinning overruled them and awarded the medal to Michael Gardiner.[5] In August 2023, the Eagles recognised Sampi with a retrospective medal after the West Australian Football Commission approved for Gardiner and Sampi to become joint winners.[6]
Round 6, 2006: After Fremantle's narrow win, the medal was awarded to Chris Judd of West Coast, which attracted boos from the Fremantle fans in the crowd. Fremantle coach Chris Connolly criticised his club's supporters for the booing.[7]
Round 3, 2007: Michael Braun finished his acceptance speech with "Let's have a fucking good year".[8] He was fined $5,000 by the AFL, who overruled the $500 penalty given to him by his club.[9][10]
Round 6, 2018: The name of the medal at the time became a source of controversy due to the Fremantle Football Club's decision not to award it a week before their home derby because they felt that the name "Ross Glendinning" alone did not reflect the club. It was later renamed the "Glendinning–Allan Medal" after the inaugural captains of each team.[11]
