The Alex Tobin Medal

In 2008 the PFA Tobin Medal was inaugurated by the Australian Professional Footballers' Association (PFA). It is to be awarded annually by the PFA to a current or former player based on four attributes demonstrated by Tobin throughout his career and which reflect the philosophy of the PFA: (1) leadership; (2) achievement as a player; (3) commitment to one's fellow professionals; and (4) service and dedication to the game. The first two medals were conferred on Joe Marston and, pothusmously, Johnny Warren. [http://www.pfa.net.au/index.php?id=103&aid=131]
