It was a stunning debut by the boy carved in granite!

Must be a rising star chance this week.

I agree, it's out of him, Heppell and possibly Darling. Tappy for mine, but i'm clearly Biased!!!

Yes Please

Would be favourite.

Heppell, Duncan and McKernan the other possibles.

If its not this week and I dont think it is, then he has sent notice that he needs to be considered in future weeks if he continues to build on his debut effort.

Really good first up effort.

How about Phil Davis - has he played too many games?

Too old.

I hate to say but my money is on heppell to will win this week as there seems to be a bomber love fest going on.

Early in the season it usual for the rising star to come from a winning side. I would expect Heppell. The way Tappy played he will have one sooner rather than later.

Tappy may get the votes due to Heppell having the expectancy from most to go well for whole year.(therefore nominate him on another week). The general football public may not realize how good Tappy is, and so he may get the chocolates on the basis that he may not have to many big weeks. But we no better, dont we.. (special nod to Roost it).

not sure this makes sense. sorry

Hope the TANK gets it for this week, every one i was sitting near loved how he played in his first match in the red and the blue.

After Jordie not getting a nomination last year i really think close calls favor higher draft picks

Tapscott must be in the mix after his debut though

I have never ever seen a first game player given the responsibility in kicking out after a point in 50 years watching this game

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think his 1st kick was a kick-in , near on made the centre .

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think James Strauss might have had some responsibility for kick ins in his first game last year.

Fantastic game from Tappy, did not for a second look out of place.

You're right.

mckernan?

but would love to see tappy get it, im contemplating a cheeky bet on him to win it, once he is nominated of course

Why wait for the odds to shorten. If you think he can win then you must believe he will get a nomination. Take the speculative odds now!

I think next week David Swallow will show what he's got and the whole thing will be over.

that is true, but none the less if tappy continues with first up form then he is a good chance although i think josh toy will be the highlight for gold coast

Just got the nod from Caro

Garry seemed to agree with her.

"Best debut by a Melbourne player he has seen in years" i believe he also said...

Absolutely.

I reckon Tappy deserves it, however it seems to me the media is grooming Heppell to be the next 'Golden Boy' after god Hird, especially given the divine intervention from the god himself.
