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

    5 goal assists has to be some sort of record

    Thats the same amount than our 2nd highest has had for the whole season

    Kids got game. The no 10 should get it this week

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

    We have a jet on our hands.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.
