Essendon has announced the winners from its 2026 VWFL individual honours, with Mitch Stretton taking home the Louis Rowe Medal as the Championship team's Best and Fairest.

Stretton's brilliant personal campaign at senior level was complemented by Luke Cameron in the Community side, who won out the Clifford Denise Medal in a Premiership season after also being named best-on-court in the big one.

The Bombers also celebrated other valuable contributors across its two teams for a year in which both worked their way to Grand Finals.

James Saw was named the Rising Star for an awesome first-up effort at the Club, while popular EFC staff member Brandon Jones was the Don of the Year recipient after an excellent transition to the wheelchair game.
