    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...

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

    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.

    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?

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
