2023 Young Guns

[Demonstone 14,484]

The Age has nominated a young player from each club who they tip to have a big 2023 season.

The Melbourne player they have gone with isn't the first one that I thought of.

Without peeking, who do you think might best fit the bill from our club?

I had already read the article but won't give the answer away.

Might note the article focuses on players from each club who have already played AFL games which reduces the options somewhat..

Bowza?

 

[Vineytime 708]

Riv

[Turner 1,298]

my guess is riv

[Deemania since 56 5,343]

I'd reckon at this stage, Bowey will regain excellence, Rivers will continue to impress in his contributions but Sparrow and JJ will absolutely bloom. 

[chook fowler 15,463]

I'm hoping JVR but may be a bit soon. Also Chandler is on the cusp.

[BW511 1,413]

Sparrow is my guess

[Lucifers Hero 32,758]

It should be Kozzie...

[Demonstone 14,484]

That was my guess too, Luci.

[DubDee 14,603]

Pick 13?

[Demon Jack 5,628]

Definitely Jack Watts

what? before juice newton, c'mon

[Lord Travis 8,118]

Kozzie. 21 years old. Back to back 40+ goal seasons. Game changer and match winner.

Already read the article this morning so know the answer though.

[durango 1,788]

So do I but my pick is Andy Moniz-Wakefield we will see who is closer me or the jounalist?

[FarNorthernD 5,370]

Would have thought the obvious one is JVR but will go Sparrow otherwise. 
 

edit. I’ve looked at the article now. Fair call.

Assume it’s JVR 

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 2,255]

I'm  with @durango

[Bring-Back-Powell 9,835]

Probably isn't Laurie but I'm backing him into be our 2023 bolter.

[Demonstone 14,484]

For those who came in late, the players nominated from all clubs have already had some senior experience.

[Neil Crompton 3,306]

I’d hope it’s Daniel Turner. (Because that might mean that one of Petty or May plays forward - preferably May).

[rjay 20,957]

Yep...there will be more than one though.

[whatwhat say what 14,290]

i guessed bowey

[adonski 6,266]

Highly esoteric pick in the Riv, but highly astute...

Had a super first half of 2021, looked a million bucks

Regressed badly this year though, do have to wonder how much impact his pre-season knee injury must've had 

[DeeZone 4,802]

Trent Rivers is a great choice he is going to be a very good player but my choice would have been Sparrow closely followed by James Jordon who needs to take the next step in 2023.!!
