2010 NAB Rising Star

[strebla]

I think Wood may just pip him but thought they were both really good yesterday and they continue to gain confidence each week

Emma Quale (on Twitter) is saying that she has information it will be Jarred Grant tomorrow ... Even though Easton Wood played a better game

[Rocco Jones]

I agree with Wood was better than Grant but the nominations seem to based on a combination of how a player performs that round and their overall performance during the season.

Mark Stevens is saying the same thing

Exactly. He has more runs on the board and it is as good as done.

So how do they pick the round one nomination then ??

Roughead has been forgotten in all the Rising Star discussions. He has 18 possessions (10 contested), took some strong grabs up forward (pity he kicked 0.3) and more than held his own in the ruck against Sandilands and Johnson. Grant will get his much deserved nomination this week, Wood might get one before the season is out but Roughead is developing at a terrific rate for such a young ruckman. The 2008 ND class was a pretty hot field for ruckmen but Roughead is looking as influential as any of them at the moment (Nic Nat included).

Congrats Jarrad!
Overlooked so many times, and finally a worthy nominee!
Congratulations

Congratulations Merlin, about time after a super season so far, and getting better all the time.

It was only a matter on time, well done Granty(or Avatar, as he's known at the kennel according to Bubba)

Hopefully Wood and Roughead can join him before the end of the season.
