Hey guys, this might seem like a strange thread but i reckon we could be in line for a rising star nomination this week. Between toovs, cox and pendles i think we are a chance.
1) Pendles: I cant think of any players in the league who went better than him. I am astonished that he hasn't recieved a nomination yet and hopefully this week can be his turn.
2) Coxy: Played extremely well and had good skills in the wet. A definate possibility.
3) Toovs: Was unlucky not to get it last week. His game probably wasn't that good this week but im sure he will get one soon. I rate toovs more than i originally thought.

Do you think anyone else in the league could get one? Maybe Hamish MacIntosh from the roos
 
It has to be Pendlebury doesn't it

4 games in and he's averaging 20 possessions, about 7 marks and over 1 goal per game, and has only played about 13 games.

If Pendles doesn't get nominated this week I will be furious. He used the ball as good as anyone (in the wet) and Rocca would have been happy that he didn't have to break stride, he found so much space in the forward line, and finished well. How many possessions has he been averaging this year? Has to be 20 (or thereabouts). GUN.
 
Pendlebury should get it this week - Amazing that he has missed out to this point.

Cox and Toovey aren't deserving.

Fair enough Vinnie but do you think that cox and toovs are future chances and by what youve seen can they be holding their spots for the rest of the year or will they struggle once dids, bucks, holland, rus and lonie return?

"I wasn't really expecting it, to be honest. I was more concentrating on looking ahead to this week's game," Pendlebury told afl.com.au.

"All my goals this year have been about football and playing seniors, rather than getting recognition for it," he said.

Said like a pro. :)

Well done, Scotty.

Pends as well as Daisy are the future of our club. If he keeps this form up he'll be the first Collingwood player to win rising star award. Hope Pends (or Daisy) wins the Anzac medal tomorrow. What's the forecast in Melbourne tomorrow? It's pissing down here in Sydney.

Ahh so that's where all the rain is! My suburb paid higher rates this year so that we could have more rain...
 
Well done to Pendles. We copped a bit of flak for taking him so high, but he has developed really well.

If I remember correctly, he sort of came from nowhere. I recall watching Daisy played well in the TAC GF and keeping an eye on Ellis. But it was Pendles that really impressed me in that game. I recall hoping to get him with Pick 21, so either we really rated him or feared he would'nt be around by then.
 
Well done Pendles, well deserved. Has had a great start to this season, and seems to be getting better every game. Hope he has a big game on ANZAC Day.
Can't wait to see Pendles and Thomas cutting apart opposition in a couple of years time.
