If he plays like he did the other night for the rest of the year, he'd be in with a chance of winning it surely? Some tough opposition this year though.

They will be some kid that plays well in a couple of sat night matches and is rarely seen around that that the journos will champion.

Swallow comes to mind.

Kid will be great, but as his coach, I take a keen interest in him and he isn't up to Gysberts' level yet.

Well deserved, a great future awaits Gysberts and I am pleased we have signed him for an additional two years.

This is pretty much what I was going to post so I'll just quote you

I'm excited to see how he develops, particularly given his pace.

PS. Who is our next nom? Tapscott?

Gawn ?

Kid will kick 5 this week.

Well done to the Gys.

Very glad to see Gys get the nod. Fantastic effort from a great kid. Starting to really look the goods

And we got him at the expense of Carlton which makes it even better.

Well done Gysberts. Thoroughly deserved. What a gun this kid will be!

Well earned by Gys. Has an important part to play in the potentially best midfield combination in the AFL.

Yes, great to see. Hope the Carlton mob noticed he won it the same game that McLean was dropped. Kind of ironic, eh?!

Finally some common sense from the AFL. Still cant believe that guys like heppell, conca and steven get nominated before guys like gysberts, tapscott, liberatore and wallace.

also hope they remember he got his nomination last year against carlscum

Heppell and Conca have both been very good. I'd have Heppell over anyone in that list on performance so far this year. Good on Gyz, don't know if he's a chance of winning it, Shuey and Z.Smith IMO have been fantastic, Smith with consistency for a big man, Shuey with a couple of amazing one off games and some decent form throughout.

Rising Top 5 to Round 11

1. Heppell

2. Darling

3. Swallow

4. Shuey

5. Gysberts

Got Gysberts sitting on my bench as a pinch-hitter in Supercoach and just can't bring myself to trade him out!

RR you havent included Zac Smith?

He should win it by a country mile

You don't rate Heppell?

Congrats to Gys. Thoroughly deserved.

I'm really tempted to trade him into my team, but it would be at the expense of Swallow, Liberatore or Dangerfield. If he follows it up with another 100+ points this week I may go ahead with it.

Smith was born in Feb 1990, too old?

Missed him if he's eligible. You're right, definite top three.

Will be a very handy player around finals time as a replacement mid. Ball magnet!

Have to be under 21 at the start of the year and have played less than 10 games in previous seasons.

Surely Howe will get a nom if he continues like he started.

Well done to Gys!!!!!!!

I'll let the blues supporters at work know about this nomination tomorrow

Bit hard to win it when he's not nominated (yet). It does say to Round 11.
