The 1934 Brownlow Medal was the 11th year the award was presented to the player adjudged the fairest and best player during the Victorian Football League (VFL) home-and-away season.[1] Dick Reynolds of the Essendon Football Club won the medal by polling nineteen votes during the 1934 VFL season.[2]

Winner | Dick Reynolds (Essendon) 19 votes |
In the last game of the 1934 season, Haydn Bunton Sr dominated; and, as he walked off the ground, he made a flippant remark to umpire Jack McMurray Sr., along the lines of: "That wasn't bad today, Jack."
"Never try to bribe an umpire," McMurray apparently replied—and left him out of the votes. Bunton lost the Brownlow medal to Dick Reynolds by one vote.[3]
