Lol * Luke Darcy, only one to give Rozee 5 votes over Walsh.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Lost 6 votes in there somewhere. Can't tell me some aren't voting with bias and ignoring the criteria.

 

[GalaxyBlue]

Huge congrats to Sam, well deserved!! Can't wait to see him ripping it up on the field and leading the club well into our future.

Also, this means a clean sweep with Carlton players winning the Rising Star for both AFL and AFLW. Not bad considering we've never won it before!!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Lol fu** Luke Darcy, only one to give Rozee 5 votes over Walsh.

Oh I thought there was 12 judges. 1 vote lost isn't as bad.

 

[Jabba73]

Never in doubt

Lost 6 votes in there somewhere. Can't tell me some aren't voting with bias and ignoring the criteria.

Maximum votes 55.

11 on the selection panel.

 

[SammaGilberto]

Wow Darc ya buzz kill!

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Tearing up to be honest. So proud of the extraordinary young man. What a season that exceeded all wildest expectations !!!

This feels more special to me than Juddy winning the Brownlow with us, partly because it's our first ever rising star winner and also because Walshy is such an rare and professional joy to watch, he helped us ease the pain when we weren't winning games,by his constant brilliant and consistency.

 

[Jabba73]

Darcy

No surprise there.

Too stupid to set aside his own bias, no self awareness to know he has it.

 

[mochacinolatte]

Luke Darcy is the kid in the classroom who reminds the teacher that they forgot to give them homework.

#BOO

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Pleasing. I am pleased.

Say that again Luke. Good reason to ensure that this flog has no involvement in anything where a rational decision needs to be made.

 

[bmaurizio]

What a phenomenal effort by the youngster, has done the Baggers very proud Sam's maiden season and brings home a haul of awards will be a champion our game.

 

[T2B_]

More like Luke Farcy.

Onya Sam though. Never in doubt.

Darcy

Say that again?

Rozee had a fantastic season but Darcy is an idiot.
