SPP's award to lose now.

 

[TazHawk15]

Now that Ryan Burton seems to be over that shocking knee injury I think he is about to show why he was touted as a top 5 pick.

I would vote for him if he was in the poll.

Given he's been nominated it would make sense to add him

I've argued this before, but the powers that be that run this thread still believe the likes of Markov, Bonner, the Clarke brothers, and anyone drafted by GC last year are better choices.

Ive tried to make changes to the poll but its a bit of a nightmare for the mods especially when players have already been voted for

McGrath will build all year I think and be very consistent, SPP will blow people away in patches with his power.

My tip...

SPP then McGrath from Burton/Taranto.

 

[briztoon]

No love for Hipwood.

Milera is another who is a very good chance if things fall his way.

Yeah good point, I really like him. Class for days.

Hoping Simpkin plays less than 10 games this season so he's eligible next year.

SPP/Taranto/McGrath the early favourites.

 

[Dons4days]

Will Hayward could be a very good chance this week after his performance tonight. The loss won't help

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Clayton Oliver played three too many games last year to be a monty, so he'll have to settle for the Brownlow instead

 

[Saintsone]

No love for Hipwood.

Wrong lion, get on Berry

Really?

Hipwood is going to explode one game this season.

We'll see tomorrow as Hipwood, Schache, Berry and McCluggage are all starting.

 

[Dons4days]

Keen to see what the Clugg can bring to this conversation. Berry as well.

SPS was very good in the wet today, kicked a cracking goal and was just clean composed and manic with his tackling.

That should read SPS..

 

[HeHateMe]

Hmmmmm butler was good again.
SPS has been mentioned.

Anyone else put there hand up?

Preuss is too old by 6 months, would of been good to see a ruckman genuinely contest the RS award.

Monster, up to 113kg's accordingly to the S&C coach I know at the club.

Was working in a car wash on the Goldy 2 years ago.

 

[captain cotch 9]

It would be good to see Butler and Georgie Castagna get a nod this year.
They wont win it overall but it would be a good reward.

 

[Wild Bill]

SPP/Taranto/McGrath the early favourites.

I would prefer him to get games experience than win an award. We should play him all year as long as he is fit.

SPP or SPS is my early prediction.

McGrath seems to be doing the slow burn like Mills did last year. May serve him well if he gets a late nod with a bit of minor hysteria each week of him not being nominating.

I dont SPP winning it. But looks a solid 3rd/4th. He's made the early strides, but come years end, SPS, McGrath, Taranto & Hopper will be dominating the conversation methinks.

If SPS didn't get the nomination after this round he simply wont win it. Carlton don't win the rising star
