/Corey Enright vibes from him.

Love his work, cannot believe he's not even halfway through his first season on an AFL list watching the way he goes about it.

 

[tigs2010]

Those judging it are dumb campaigners ?

Goes without saying when it comes to AFL and it's media

 

[Grockadoc]

How has this kid not got a Rising Star nomination yet?! He's so good that you don't even notice him along side the likes of Flossy, Broad, Brown and Balta. That speaks for itself.

Hopefully given we won, he gets the nom for consistency.

Carlton must have some scrub who had 12 disposals at 33% DE...

Watch them give it to Binns or Simpson (whoever the **** they are), in their first games of the year.

There we go. Maybe Boxshall smiled nicely at a voter

Isn’t Kane cornes on the panel

 

[DickieKnee]

Isn’t Kane cornes on the panel

Nuff said.

 

[Muddiemoose]

Isn’t Kane cornes on the panel

I know he’s on the all Australian one
Is it the same group that picks the rising star?

 

[TigermanM2]

Isn’t Kane cornes on the panel

Indeed he is.


Rising Star.
Kevin Sheehan as chairperson, with Nathan Buckley, Jude Bolton, Kane Cornes, and Abbey Holmes

All Australian.
Don't think judging panel for 2025 has been announced but last year it was Andrew Dillon (Chair), Eddie Betts, Jude Bolton, Nathan Buckley, Kane Cornes, Glen Jakovich, Matthew Pavlich, Laura Kane, Abbey Holmes and Josh Mahoney

Has Nate Caddy got a nomination yet ?

is he eligible ?

 

[tiger_tough]

Has Nate Caddy got a nomination yet ?

is he eligible ?

Yeah I just realised he's eligible for another nomination in his 2nd year, so you can probably lock that in....

 

[tiger_tough]

Yeah Caddy got it. So dumb that you can technically get 3 nominations. Should be you can only get one.

 

[Lord of the Wings]

Nate Caddy this week. FFS Trainor is getting shafted the same as Gibcus and Stack did before him. Its a farce.

 

[tigs2010]

Now we will lose every week and they'll use that to not give it to Luke

 

[Grockadoc]

Is a defender. Won't get a look in.

 

[Karp3_dm]

Is a defender. Won't get a look in.

Rules don’t apply to Geelong tho.. obviously

 

[THE_GUN]

Is a defender. Won't get a look in.

He will eventually get it i have no doubt

They just need to run out of people to give it to

 

[Muddiemoose]

Is a defender. Won't get a look in.

Will before the key forwards do at least

Those poor campaigners are stuck until the post bye body of work nominations

Like Caddy?

 

[Muddiemoose]

Like Caddy?

Psh hardly a key
He’s like 191
That’s medium forward territory these days

 

[nugget_12]

It’s actually getting ridiculous now.

Yep Caddy kicked 3 well done but he’s a second year player getting his second nomination. Once you get a nomination that should be it regardless of games/age.

Too many second yr players getting priority over first yr players.

It’s not the Rookie of the Year award is it?
Should only be for first year players…like rookies.

 

[Daka]

They seriously need to change The Rising Star award to Rookie of the Year like the NBA.

It's becoming a farce. should be about 1st year players not 2nd & 3rd.

It’s such a weird award and the criteria is really stupid

Allows guys potentially in the system for 3 years to be nominated but if a kid gets picked up as an over ager they can’t get nominated like Stewart
