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?

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.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    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

    The Demon running machine came back with a vengeance after a leaner than usual year in 2023.  Date of Birth: 1 February 1996 Height: 182cm Games MFC 2024: 22 Career Total: 179 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 76 Brownlow Medal Votes: 5 Melbourne Football Club: 5th Best & Fairest: 352 votes

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    TRAINING: Monday 11th November 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons. Date of Birth: 10 January 1992 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 19 Career Total: 235 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 24 Melbourne Football Club: 9th Best & Fairest: 316 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025. Date of Birth: 7 August 2003 Height: 185cm Games MFC 2024: 23 Career Total: 48 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 1 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1 Melbourne Football Club: 7th Best & Fairest: 347 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #18 Jake Melksham

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188
