Great work, and well earned Bowser!

[Chook 15,069]

Very well deserved. Bowey is tracking to be even better than Christian Salem, which would be a rare feat.

Just out of curiosity, what's the record for Rising Star nominations by one club in a season? I really can't imagine it being higher than our four.

Well deserved.

I reckon we've found one here.

Well done Bowser 👏

Think GWS had about 8 nominations in their first season.

If I can recall, we also had 4 nominations in 2016 being Oliver, Petracca, Harmes and OMac.

I love this kid already. We have kept him nice and secret and fresh for the finals.What a brilliant player he is going to be for us over the next decade and a half. Well done Jake! I was coach of the1973 Cheltenham High(Jake's recent School) footy team. I also coached the late and great Trevor Barker at the same school. Looks like my coaching skills live on. Ha ha. But I really did coach Trev at Chelt High.Go Dees you CAN Do It!!!!

He’s looked as good in just first three games as I can remember any Melbourne debutant.

I knew nothing of him before he was getting senior games (didn’t see him at Casey) but he has totally blown me away just how good he is already.

Not sure on the record but don't think there would be many of any teams that are top 4 and potentially minor premier's with 4. Kudos to the recruitment,development , fitness and coaches.

[Roger Mellie 4,205]

This kid is sharp! You can just see he's playing within himself - just doing the team things and finding his feet

I can't wait to see him get comfortable out there

Are you referencing your optics there @Chook or particular stats?

My optics say he's come out've the blocks far quicker than Salem.
I'm with Clint.

Agree.
Gonna be the slice and dice weapon we've been crying out for IMO.

[Big Col 1,356]

Oh wow! 

Well done, Jake.

So we received 5 nominations in the AFLPA Under 22s squad and that didn't include Jake. This is a magnificent result for the club.

[Deestroy All 14,266]

How can you get a rising star nom when you’ve played 150 games?

[dazzledavey36 56,334]

How good is this for insight!

 

[Mazer Rackham 14,972]

Surely this kid's nickname is "David" ?

Yep, well done, Chelty. Great result. Milne's son was at Chelt too. Not sure what happened to him. Didn't appear to be picked up by the Saints.
