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

Posted

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.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
