News Congratulations to the Round 2 Rising Star Winner - Connor O'Sullivan!

[ShadowCat]

Wow, only 3 games into his career, and a rising star nod. So impressed with his growth, and reckon he's gonna be a superstar.

Congratulations Connor, fantastic game!

I'm not a fan of the new format the social media team uses.

Not bad for a retirement farm...

Congrats Connor!

Remember the last bloke from Geelong who picked up the nomination in an early round after playing St.Kilda went on to win the whole enchilada...

Let's help Connor to a double win this week

Cue Tiger fans fury

 

[STPer18]

Got a real good one here.

Cue Tiger fans fury

Nah, it's Eagles fans who aren't happy with this and want to know why Tyrell Dewar wasn't nominated

 

[moond0g]

Tbh I thought Clohesy was more impressive on the weekend lol. But well done, always nice to see the rookies recognised

Congrats Connor!

Only Geelong could have the runner up, the winner, and three separate nominations for the award within three seasons (and 2 weeks!!) and cop that sort of treatment.

Unfortunately, it's just how it goes. I honestly believe if we were s**t, they'd all get more credit or 'hype' so to speak.

Hopefully we don't have to reach that point to put that theory to the test.

Superstar?

How to you categorise the abletts if you say that?

[Gavin Excell]

I liked how he had the confidence later in the game v Saints to fly for his marks

Dear old Stab Boy

 

[you pick one]

Not only rising star but among the best half dozen in a pretty star studded Cats outfit IMHO.

I don't think his height has changed much since he was drafted. He's certainly  developed as a footballer very rapidly, though.

In all seriousness, what a great achievement for the young man. I genuinely loved what he showed against the Saints and his RS nod was well deserved.

Agreed. Luke Ablett didn't set the world on fire, did he?

 

[Smurph18]

Only 2 games into this year but he’s reminding me of SDK 2022. Doing so much you wouldn’t expect from him at that age and height. Im so excited for what he will be able to offer, expecting him to play nearly every game from here now

 

[ShadowCat]

Superstar?

How to you categorise the abletts if you say that?

Must everything you say be something contrarian or negative? Such boomer energy (this coming from a 35 year old).

Legends are how I would classify them. Superstar is slightly hyperbolic, but honestly, who cares? Go touch grass.

 

[thegerman]

Excellent. Fantastic to see him do so well on the weekend. Played that last quarter with such confidence. Loved it.

Well hopefully that’s stops the whole Caddy debate well done on the kid I can’t wait to watch his development along side of Dempsey and co

As the ole saying goes, 'Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer'

Captain Contrarian returns to try and bring the mood down with a pedantic comment. What a shock.

Well done to COS, had some brilliant moments on the weekend.
