The Rising Star Thread - Congratulations Jesse Hogan!

Stoked for Jesse Hogan to get the nomination. Might have been a bit of a make-up nomination after the last two weeks when he was stiff to miss out. I didn't get on him early in the year when he was at $9.00. I figured he would take a while to settle in (as most key forwards do). Happy to be proven wrong.

Definitely thought it would be Angus this week but he'll get his turn - 14 contested possessions on the weekend was great.

Cripps is having a great year with Carlton - 21.6 touches and 5 tackles per game. The big stat is his 13.7 contested possessions per match which is good for 9th overall. Quite a tasty pick up at no. 13 in the 2013 draft. Cam McCarthy was taken one spot after him at 14th. Thankfully Salem is looking like a good pick in his own right. Either way, it could be worse for the Dees. Neither Matthew Scharenberg (6th) or Nathan Freeman (10th) have played a game for the Pies.

There was much discussion about Jake Lever prior to last year's draft - many thought he was deserving of consideration with our 2 / 3 pick (along with Jayden Laverde). He hasn't blown minds but he's been solid and looks like he belongs. Great value at pick 14th.

2014 draftees Jack Lonie (41st) and Cory Gregson (47th) are showing good signs. Hopefully Stretch and ANB come on strong and become part of a great stretch in the 40s.

    Maybe. Although Lang had 24 touches and like 7 tackles. Thurlow 22 and 4 rebound 50s, 4 inside 50s.

    But no goals. Brayshaw contributed directly to 6 of our 13...that's nearly half the goals!

    Also, they owe him for last week.

    Brayshaw has been consistently good.

    Lang. Thurlow will get thier turn later

    If Brayshaw keeps up this standard he could give the award a serious shake this year.

    We have a jet on our hands.

    • 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 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.
