Awaiting the beginning of the season I was thinking in addition to the poty voting we could also have a young player of the year component as well.
After nominating the top 5 for the game we nominate best young player for the game. Like the poty votes a winner would be declared each round and than tallied for the end of the year.
There are a few ways we could do this.
We could follow the NAB rising star rules which is under 21 at the start of the year and played less than 10 games before the commencement of the season.
or allow all players who will be under 23 when the season is completed
Eligible for the rising star would be
Daniel Currie
Tayor Gilchrist
Daniel Hannebery
Cambell Heath
Lewis Johnston
Brett Meredeth
Brendan Murphy
Mathew O'Dwyer
Jake Orreal
Daniel O'Keefe
Nick Smith
Kristen Thornton
Patrick Veszpremi
Eligible for the under 23 at the season end is all the above plus
Ed Barlow
Craig Bird
Ryan Brabazon
Kieran Jack
Mathew Laidlaw
If we were to make it under 23 before the season started you could also include
Jarred Moore
Heath Grundy
Tim Schmidt.
Thoughts people?
