Just wondering.

Doesn't anyone know?

I’m going a 50-50 chance, he’ll either get it or he won’t.

 

I'm not going to be able to interpret this without a best 22.

If another eligible player has a better game than him then gets the nomination, Jackson will have next to no chance. 


Needy or what?  28 minutes after not getting an answer you add a follow up? (LOL).

If he catches the eye of the judges for his game this week and no ‘favourite’ has a good game, then he could win a nomination.  He had a very impressive game, so I think his chances are good.  No crows players would be in front of him, anyway.....

I think regardless of a nomination, he has shown that there are many years of great games in front of him...

I don't think he'll get one this week.

 

Buggered if I know.  I can't even figure out when the round started or when it ends!

If Fritsch didn’t take that mark in front of him, he’d have had a very, very good chance.

 I didnt expect to open this thread and laugh my [censored] off at every single post, but it happened.

I think he'll get it and I asked my neighbour and he thinks he'll get it too. I hope this has helped you.

* I may not have asked my neighbour

Doubt he’ll get one this week. It was a promising step in his development, but hardly a great game like previous nominations this year.

Jacko has been super impressive. It's hard to believe he is an 18 year old who is 200cm and had played only a few games at AFL level. He does the basics well combined with athletic ability both in the air and at ground level, has a health degree of self assurance and just slots into the team beautifully. Really enjoying seeing him develop each week.


There’s a lot of hype around Rowell and Rankine, and rightly so but Jackson is being hugely underrated. He’s going to be a freak.

Seriously... it was another step forward for Jackson, but he has a long way to go to be a Rising Star of the calibre of other nominees. They don't give the award on potential.

We all want him to be great, but he's not. Not yet, anyway. 

Same goes for Kozzie. Three minutes of highlights. Looong way to go.

You dont know they give one out every single week don't you. For the best young player of the round...

The Question therefore is: Has a young player had a better game this week?

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
