TBF hard to play a break out game when you have to kinda sacrifice your own game for the benefit of the side. It's quite exceptional how he is having an impact in the ruck being under sized but is also able to go forward and still do his work.About time he got one! He’d be in the top 3 or 4 for rising stars for the whole season but hasn’t played the big breakout game that gets you noticed.
Rising star is a bit of a flawed award . Teams with poor depth and high picks ofter give their rookies a baptism of fire where as teams that have established squads and develop players with longevity in mind will struggle to get a rising star . It also caters to more physically developed draftees.About time he got one!

Sam walsh should be the RS this year but his ceiling is nowhere near as high as stack , rozee , allen , blakley or king
Agree that RS is flawed but Walsh is going to be an incredible player. He has no obvious physical advantages other than a good tank. He’s just super bloody classy mid.Sam walsh should be the RS this year but his ceiling is nowhere near as high as stack , rozee , allen , blakley or king

I see more similarity to a Jack Reiwoldt. Has the athleticism, body size and reach of Jack.Similar size to Jarryd Roughead .
Tracking better I reckon .
Roughead was flying in their 3 peat years ..
Only need Brander to track similar to Buddy Franklin now .
I think O.Allen is an exception, in that kids struggle to cope when thrown all over the park. O.Allen has been able to do his job at both ends and in the ruck.Roughead, Jack Riewoldt, Nick Riewoldt.....some damn good players people are comparing him with.
I wish Brander had his killer mentality.
How do you know Brander doesn't?Roughead, Jack Riewoldt, Nick Riewoldt.....some damn good players people are comparing him with.

Not convinced I agree with you that Walsh won't be the best of that bunch, but Allen will be the guy we'll be able to build our team around for the next 10 years. And that makes him priceless to us.Rising star is a bit of a flawed award .
