Another Rising Star

Recommended Posts

I reckon Liam Jurrah is a great chance for a rising star nomination this week.

What a great thing that would be and in our 2 great wins (the ones in a row) we have 2 nominations.

Watch this space!

I think it will go to Liam but unfortunately it might be the Liam that plays for the Kangaroos Liam Anthony

It will not go to Liam Anthony as he is too old. He's 21.

Liam Jurrah or Chris Masten from WCE are the two possibles this week.

I thought you had play less than 6 games prior to round 1 this year, hence Masten would be ineligible?

Edit " Just looked it up, under 21 and less than 10 games prior to start of season. So Masten is technically eligible (9 games last year) "

Well, if they go by teams that win games, Jurrah should get the nod if it's out of those two.

Got to go to Jurrah! Not only did he have more influence then Masten but he's also more eye catching. Better story for the AFL also if he's the nominee for the week.

Does he meet all the criterias?

He meets all the criteria for a sainthood, let alone a silly Rising Star nomination.

my house is on Jurrah. he will get it.

Also Dean Bailey on "The couch" tonight and Liam will feature.

hmm awesome! I think this is the first show Bails has ever been on is that correct? Must be criteria of having to win two games in a row before being asked on a show? lol

I was at the the eagles saints game on sunday and if masten gets the nod above jurrah for that performance i'll tear my hair out. He is awful and the fair weather eagle supporters are already turning on him, which i think is a bit unfair. He was often referred to as the new fletcher... Bit harsh methinks, let's not say things we cant take back.

Good enough for me. Keep feeding him those jumping beans RudeBoy. ;)

By god he's got a great leap - even off one step! He would have broken records at Draft Camp.

Exactly my thoughts! I was thinking that yesterday when watching the match - wonder if they could get him back there just to set some records for the fun of it!!

Don't think I've seen a first year Melbourne player impose himself on a game so vivaciously before.

That said, I still feel that Broughton deserves it for what has been an outstanding season - though Jurrah might get it for being a part of a winning team.

He's 23 on Grand Final day.

Is that too old?

Has been very good though, have followed him closely...

Yes, because of Supercoach...

I will Punch a Brick Wall if he does not get it........

He's already got it.

And weren't you the bloke who said we should delist Petterd about a week ago?

You didn't hit your head on a brick wall by any chance?

Tounge in cheek, but, jeez, what a bad call...

Thank God for Supercoach.

Someone mentioned eariler that to be eligible you had to be under 21 and less than 10 games before the start of the season, but Sportingbet have odds for him to win it - so I assume he is eligible.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
