    When the hell do they announce the nab rising star nomination? Surely we normally know by Wednesday night????

    I'm just hoping the string beast gets the nod.

    Maybe due to the split round DD.
    Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

      Looking at the game replay, Stringer has fantastic hands - he is so sure, never fumbles. But then, a few of our new guys show the same positive trait - all good for the future.

              Just because the AFL is out to get us doesn't mean we shouldn't pretend it's only a 'conspiracy'.

                    Starting to show a bit more of a burst. Will be an interesting player.

                    Once his fitness is enough that he can run through the midfield, people will take notice. Him and bonts playing midfield, drifting forward and swapping rest time in a forward pocket is going to drive opposition coaches insane.

                      Is Stringer eligible for the RS? I remember at one stage the rule was a player was ineligible if they had played ten games played prior to the current season and Jake played ten last year. That rule may have been changed though.
                      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                        He's eligible, and the club are doing a fantastic reminder to the selection committee about his prowess. We just need one more on Sunday afternoon and we should be all set!

                            Brad Nicholson got a gig in the 90's!
                            Thought he'd be our fB for a decade!!
                            Point is don't worry about it.

                              I may be wrong (according to the Bride I am quite often) in previous seasons I thought they nominated one RS each week of the split round.
                              It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.
