His two center clearances that led to 2 goals at the start of the last quarter beg to differ.
22 disposals, 15 contested possessions, 7 clearances (5 center clearances) in only just over half a game (58%) is immense.

Parish played a good game, now keen to see Mills and Moore. Going to be a good year for the rising star award.

Weitering way ahead of Oliver in terms of individual performance.
But Parish has it pretty much in the bag so far after his impressive debut.
I'm waiting to see how Mills and Moore do tonight.

Oliver, Parish and Weitering all look fantastic.
Looking forward to watching Mills and the big lad at Brisbane.
This could turn out to be a great draft for top end talent.

Couple of antsy blues supporters in this thread, what a surprise.
Parish also had a very good game first up, haven't seen Schache yet but last years top 4 all look like they'll be seriously good players.
So far this round i'd still give it to the #1 pick, to come in first up as a key defender and look like a 5 year veteran was very impressive. Oliver was very good with his clearances though.
Edit:top 5 picks, i forgot about Mills who i rate as the best in the draft

Everyone is getting ahead of themselves only 1 game. Sounds of everyone we should just hand out the award right now
Think we should assume Tigers Suns and Demons are top4 so far because only teams to have recorded wins so far in 2016 season

I'd probably give the nomination to Weitering thus far.

I thought we were discussing the nomination for round 1. So gillo, when should we discuss it then, round 12?

We have only played 3 full games of the season, you realise that right? Are we counting out other first year players already. Rising star award yes should wait
So far think even between Jacob and Clayton for Rd1 considering only 3 games played which why I think everyone getting way ahead of themselves

I'll repeat myself, I thought we were only discussing the round 1 nomination and whose performance so far was best.
Or should we all get your permission as to when we can start discussing it?

'Whose early pick will win the Rising Star?' easily trumps 'Whose #1 pick is the biggest dud?'.

I'm looking forward to seeing Oliver in action if people reckon he was better than Weitering was on Friday. Petracca too when he eventually plays.
Hasn't really done a lot yet in his first game but I can't wait to see Milera get going.
Kids going bananas in round 1.
Weitering and Menadue were both awesome. Oliver was cooked after half time. Parish impressive.
Papley, Hewett and Mills carving it up at the moment.

He might be more talented but if he works anywhere near as hard as Viney I'd be ******* blown away

If that's what Oliver can do in the 4th quarter when he's cooked then i can't wait until he develops his tank
Totally agree. Fearsome prospect when he builds his tank and can run out games.

From most posts think we should just hand out the rising star award now. No need to play out the season
No gillo, most posts are talking about the round 1 nomination not the award itself.
Your posts cannot be for real can they?
