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

    as jurrah as played less than ten games this year, he can still get it next year.

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

    I was thinking the same thing CB!!

    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

  • Quote

    I'd say Scully, basing it on the way Rich has dominated this year and is an absolute shoo-in. But really, I feel that any of those guys could win it. Which bodes well for the future.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
