Damn, I wanted to be snarky about this. Well done to Mitch.

Re: Rising Star 2015

Well done Mitch. I was getting a fair few strange looks from my girlfriend yelling out "Well done Honey" and "Great work Dahl" the last few weeks.

Re: Rising Star 2015

How many Norwich RS nominees have we had on this list, now?

I make it Stringer, Macrae, Bonti, Talia, Wallis ,Dahl, Libba, Honey, Hrovat, Roughie??

Have I missed anyone, or perhaps awarded some extras??

Re: Rising Star 2015

Yeh HS reporting 7 since 2013, 2nd most in the comp behind GWS. Amazing talent. Libba also somehow escaped a nomination.

Tom Boyd also still eligible.

Re: Rising Star 2015

I forgot Grant.. And I don't know if Roughie was ever nominated. I think Jones got one instead.

Our Rising Star nomination count is about nine since 2011... Yet it was just two in the previous five years!

Re: Rising Star 2015

Oh, and I really think Daniel will be a monty later this year or early next, as will Boyd at some point... Not to mention Jong.. Good signs!.. Good, good signs!

Jong just too old I believe? Webb would be a good chance if he brings his VFL form to the main stage.

I hear you on Jong. I personally think that he's the steal of the year. He'll play 200+ games for us. His improvement trajectory is huge. Back to the Rising Star Award. I'm a massive rap for Webb (no relation) but one who I will add who has impressed me more and more over the past month is Bailey Dale. He has hardly passed puberty by the look of him, but he's clearly a natural footballer. If he puts on some size and works at it, he will be excellent.

He's very similar to Nathan Brown when he first arrived. (And surely more loyal!)

Re: Rising Star 2015

Well done to the Badger . One still has to wonder how Tom Liberatore never got one!
Good effort behind the plastic love child to have that many nominations.

Re: Rising Star 2015

Well done to the Sweet man. Love the way he goes about it on the field.

Re: Rising Star 2015

Great work HC.

I think his overall talent is underrated due to his size and the way he has started his career in a positional sense. As he gets stronger with a few more preseasons under his belt his raw talent will shine through and there won't be any questioning it.

Keep up the good work Mitch
