    I reckon Cody's only going to get better in front of goal as he gets fitter, and JUH has started off pretty well and seems to have a solid technique.

    It's nice to think we're building an actual forward line with actual forwards. Haven't really seen anything like it since 1992 - 1997 era.

    Maybe even a genuine KPD to support Keath!

    I’m not sure I cope in such a radical footy world like that. I mean I could happily celebrating another flag.

    Rate Cody and the enthusiasm he brings to our side.We’ve been lacking a smile like his since Johnno retired.
    He does need to work out when to contest and when to pull out of a marking contest, going to get hurt if he gets in Astro’s way.
    It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.

    It’s nice to have a player who clearly loves a big moment. Never looks phased and always has a kick for goal as his no. 1 priority

    That speccy.
    The goal over his head vs Port.
    17 goals in 10 games in the top side.
    Top 10 among Rising Stars for a heap of key stats.
    Huge smile, likeable young man.
    Talked up by a lot of commentators.

    I’m thinking he’s a decent shot at actually winning the Rising Star.

    He's currently paying $18 with Sportsbet, with seven candidates ahead of him.

    Time to get on. He’s a free marketing dream for the AFEL. Always back self interest as PK says.

    Nik Cox has already won the Rising Star. Not sure if you're aware, but he has remarkable athleticism for someone who is 200cms.

    Athleticism? Really?

    Next you'll be telling me that Scott Pendlebury played basketball.
    Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again, Dougal!?


    I have, yeah Ted, you big gobshite

    Re: Welcome to the Western Bulldogs: Cody Weightman

    State News just now:

    2. There's a sleeper in the NAB AFL Rising Star race

    It is the most even battle for the Rising Star in recent years, with Greater Western Sydney's Tom Green, Melbourne pair Luke Jackson and James Jordon and Port Adelaide's Mitch Georgiades all considered the favourites. But Cody Weightman’s important 10-week stretch for the Western Bulldogs should also put him firmly in the mix for votes on the coveted award. Saturday night’s massive hanger over Max Gawn is one of the marks of the season, but aside from that Weightman has added genuine energy and buzz to the Bulldogs' mix and booted 17 goals from 10 games. Lively, tenacious and efficient in front of goal, Weightman should be catching the eye of judges. - Callum Twomey

    You just know they'll nominate Heeney for MOTW.

    Gulden from Swans should be winning the Rising Star so I feel like we’re a fair way back on the list of aggrieved parties when Cox wins anyway.
