More Depressing useless information

Was just thinking about the rising star nominations for this year. Sadly, for such a young list, I cannot think of anyone that will even get nominated. Sam Blease maybe? is he still eligible?

And as an extra bonus; out of 8 rounds this year, 4 of the nominations have been in games that played us.

I wonder what odd's for that hairy Bootsma kid to get the nod this week.

    I'd be surprised if Tom McDonald ended the season without being nominated.

    There's an age or some other restriction isn't there? Otherwise Magner would have been a certainty in round 1.

    Magner is too old to qualify, as is Couch.

    Playing for a losing team doesn't help. Playing for a rabble, forget it. We are almost a certainty for MOTY though. Its the only thing we seem to win every now and then. Special mention to T Mc though.

    Hasn't hurt GWS or GC...

    They are not a rabble. They are young developing sides.

    They also have the advantage of 50% of their team qualifying for a nomination.

    Was actually a sly dig at the nepotism coming from Demetriou towards those teams

    I predict Taggert would get a nomination before the end of the season. He's a gun.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
