Bad luck for Tappy. Line Ball based on stats.

    with the Gold Coast set to debut this weekend, you would expect the AFL to continue the publicity push and announce Andrew Swallow the round 2 rising star nomination. heck the might as well do it now! Tappy won't get a gong till rd 3 at the earliest, even then they might find GC boys to award it to unitl rd 15!!

    Engrave the trophy now with David Swallow. No point in going through the whole season with this charade.

    Then again NikNat was a shoo-in.

    Tappscott will get the rising star nomination in round 11 after he smashes Heppel into the ground.

    Which it always is. If they saw the manner in which he won the ball, and how he delivered it, as well as one percenters... there's no way 20 maxing possessions would have gotten it.

    Oooh how good would that be.

    had a sportsbet list up before round 1 and Tappy wasn't in the top 15 players and you could have taken him at $34 (any other player)

    Sportsbet.com.au now have Tappy at $11 (5th Favorite) to win this years Rising Star.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
