Very well deserved!

Silky is an apt description!

Silky Demon earns Rising Star nod after outstanding start...

Xavier Lindsay is the Telstra AFL Rising Star nominee for round seven
 

30% on the bench as well (vs Tigers)

11 marks for a youngster is a standout stat. Shows he's making position well and creating seperation

And 21 possessions at 71% DE is more than acceptable for an 18yo

Congratulations Xavier Lindsay fantastic recognition for our young gun, so well deserved.😁👍

 

The future is bright!

Regardless of what pick Essendon end up netting from our finish this year, I feel very comfortable knowing that we'll have these two jets lining up in our midfield for the next 15 years.

Another Jason Taylor special.

There's nothing I don't like about this kid, I've got question marks about Kolt and Langford but Lindsay just makes me happy.

Looks skinny on TV but surprises me in real life, bigger than I thought and think he'll build a great frame in a few years.

I don't think so.

I have question marks too. Not major doubts but concerns he won't quite be the player I thought he would.

Obviously, it's very early days and I'll watch closely with interest, as I'm sure we all will.

Langford is one out of the box. Very special player. My observation on him prior to drafting him - is that he could be a key forward, such is him dominance forward of centre as a junior. What he is doing currently, on the wing, and sparingly in the middle, off of a limited prep (as a first year player), is something to get excited about. In addition, i thought he looked lazy at times last week, but within the space of a quarter, I saw 3 one percent acts. Suggests he probably has a limited tank and is conserving his energy, and going when he can, which is smart, and to be expected in year 1.

All I’ll say is that if it were Collingwood players getting nominated for Rising Star nominations, their fans wouldn’t be questioning how good they actually are…

Seriously, just enjoy the fact that we have some quality young talent coming through

I hate Collingwood but Jesus they celebrate their players no matter what. Even when they’re pure [censored] they find one good thing and that’s good enough for them haha we find one bad thing and that’s enough for us to say they won’t be any good.

Congratulations to Xavier "Spreadsheet" or "X" Lindsay!

He is an excellent kick and very cool, calm and collected with football in hand.

A well deserved rising star nomination for the Melbourne Demons! 🔴🔵👹


Picks 6 and 11 are looking like the 2 best players available from last years draft

Obviously extremely early and Jagga injured plus Lalor looking good but you have to say amazing drafting and development by the club

Out of interest what are your doubts on Langford. I think he looks a rippa, every bit as good as Lindsay.

Pleasantly surprised by this nomination. Not the nomination itself, but the timing of it. I just didn't see last week's game as being worthy of the nomination. It suggests to me that the selection panel wanted to make sure that he got nominated because he may well be the type of player that is worthy of consideration for the annual award while never actually having a single dominant game.

What I'm really talking about is a major flaw in the Rising Star award. A player can become nominated by having just one stellar game in the season while consistently good performers without one dominant game could miss out on eligibility.

Right, I have found a copy of Das Kapital but cannot find any reference by Marx concerning Langford. Footballers control of the sherrin factory and the means of producing goals is as close as I can stretch it.

It was something Harpo said...

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
