    Re: Rising Star Nominations - 2013

    If Hrovat picks up the nod this week, would that be our best season return for the rising star?

      He didn't. Tom Nicholls from Gold Coast. Not entirely happy about that.

        I'm convinced that whoever selects the rising stars hate the doggies. We have had some great kids come through over the years without getting nominated. Tom Liberatore, Clay Smith, now JJ will probably be ineligible when he returns. From memory Jaryd Harbrow never got a nomination either. If he played for GC at the time he would've though. I'm sure there would be more of our youngsters overlooked who probably deserved some recognition that I haven't mentioned.
        Oh well, we can just be the quiet achievers I guess!
        They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

          Nicholls was very good on the weekend and has been fairly consistent since coming into the team.

            Unless a kid plays an absolute blinder, they usually reward for a bit of consistency, Hrovat will need to back it up like Talia did.

              But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                Ok. Some better get a tape measure and get down to Whitten Oval.

                  Why? Talià himself has stated that he is 195, on radio last week and to 1eyedog and therefore the stats are correct

                    I reckon we all need to settle this once and for all with a fist fight.

                      No need to be so violent jeemak. A simple wall to piss on would settle it.

                      It would seem we're not the only ones debating this issue:

                          Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                            Is there a rising star coming up for Young?

                              Think Youngy really deserves a nomination been great all year only other player who could pip him would be Grundy from Pies.
