Rising Star History dictates it must be Saad

Posted

Heeney from the Swans another contender for this week. 17 touches and a goal.

Posted

Heeney in front so far this week.

Melboune possibilities this year:

Brayshaw, stretch, Hogan, McDonald, hunt, Neal-bullen, white, Harmes, King,

Posted

McIntosh for the toiges must be up there as well

Might be too old?

Posted (edited)

Pull me up if there's some kind of taboo around betting odds but I find it interesting to track how the bookies see the Rising Star race and to track it as the season progresses.

I looked up the market before the NAB cup and we had the top 3 in Petracca, Brayshaw and Hogan. Since he didn't play in the NAB cup Brayshaw dropped off a bit but he'll soon rise up if he keeps up today's form.

$8 - Nakia Cockatoo

$9 - Jesse Hogan

$9 - Patrick Cripps (CARL)

$10 - Isaac Heeney

$10 - Matt Crouch (ADEL)

$10 - Kamdyn McIntosh (no idea where he was at before tonight)

$12 - Jed Anderson (HAW)

$16 - Angus Brayshaw

---

$151 - Billy Stretch, Alex Neal-Bullen

$251 - Oscar McDonald, Mitchell White, Jayden Hunt

---

Always gamble responsibly, obviously.

Kamdyn McIntosh get the nomination for round 1 with his 23 disposal 1 goal performance on debut against Carlton.

Tigers dream debut continues

I'll update the first post with each nomination throughout the year for easy reference

And have edited the above for Melbourne's "probable" nominations for 2015...

Both will be nominated at some stage this year.

History says you really need to be nominated before round 8 to win. The only three to win outside that I believe are Lewis Taylor (rd 9), Ben COusins and Nick Reiwoldt

This award has been the kiss of death for the majority of MFC players who were received them.

Quite happy with no nominations.

Happy to have our young players looking good in years two and three.

Bit harsh on Rivers......

And Jones has done OK....

And Viney has showed a bit

But on many of the tothers you are sadly right,.

dont care about this meaningless award, Jesse Hogan is on another level than anyone else eligible or whoever wins it

Honestly Jesse keeps doing what he's doing right now for the rest of the year I couldn't give a stuff if he wins this/gets a nomination. 2 games from two he's played his role and snagged a couple, not much more you can ask for from a second year power forward.

Geez the swans got a good one with Isaac Heeney, didn't get a lot of the pill but snagged 4 goals from the 10 possessions and looks a player. They'll clean up again this year with Mills and Dunkley through academy and father son respectively, both rated high 1st round picks at this stage. Maybe this will push Mitchell or others further on the outer and be open to trade?

Posted

Can't work out Mitchell. He decided to stay at the Swans so he could push his way into their team, yet Heeney walks straight into their starting 22 right after being drafted.

Would be a little miffed if I were him.

Posted

Heeney gets this week's gong. In an uncompromised draft system he would be playing in red and blue this year.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
