i know its early.. but might as well look to next season

We will have 5 of these kids running around in the red and blue next season

there is a fair bit of quality in that list and all should get major time in the side next season

who do you guys think has the best shot?

no brainer....another rising star for the red and blue now we just need to get our "rising" stars to become elite stars

Scully. Watts will have a say...

I do expect at least 4 noms next year at least. I think there's others too. Is Jurrah still in it? Maybe too old? I know you can be nominated more than once, a la Jones.

Add McNamara and Strauss to that list too, as well as perhaps a few other names with 3rd and 4th rounders, along with perhaps a PSD pick.

It's all a bit of fun, the Rising star is a bit of a media award. Still interesting to watch though.

Key point here - I'm amazed they have betting on this award.

The favourite ALWAYS gets it too

How many games will have Jurrah played by next season (assuming he plays the next two weeks)?

I was thinking the same thing CB!!

Posted

Jurrah turns 21 in November.. making him ineligible..

im 99% sure its 21 years or 10 games. which makes broughton and anthony etc ineligible this season

i was thinking trengove would be more popular, especially since he is carving the SANFL compared to school footy ala Rich

Wont it be ironic when we have a Jack Trengrove running around recruited from SA, and a SA club (Port) has a Jack Trengrove running around recruited from Victoria?

Posted

scully probably..

..watts will be awesome.. but he will still take a few seasons to become a star

Jonathan Brown who is one of the best CHF in the game never won the Rising Star Award. Watts may never win the award either but he still may become a great CHF for Melbourne ala Jonathan Brown. :unsure:

Add Sammy Blease and possibly Jack Trengove to that list. 4 nominations seem almost a certainty.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    Champion ruckman and brilliant leader, Max Gawn earned his seventh All-Australian team blazer and constantly held the team up on his shoulders in what was truly a difficult season for the Demons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
