Grainger-Barras was very good today

They usually give it to a player in a winning team.

Durdin this week IMO

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Gollant 4 goals in a winning showdown…

 

[marcmurphy3]

Daicos definately deserves it winning team or not.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Will be Gollant, stood up when the chips were down and helped inspire his team to a famous victory

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Liked O'Driscoll's game for Freo, but yeah think Gollant deserves it.

Not always Nick Martin round 1 Daicos has been consistently good

 

[unplugged]

Gotta be Daicos this week, no bias at all

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

8th in the league for intercept possessions is insane for a second year 10 game defender, but especially one of his size

 

[tiger_tough]

Thomson Dow any chance? 23 disposals - 12 contested, 7 clearances and a goal assist.

Made sense to give it to Daicos was really good in a losing team

Gollant was pretty stiff though, just like Rachele was in Round 1.
Pretty certain both those lads will get a nom sometime this season.

Yeah both hopefully get nominations but watching Daicos 2 out of 3 weeks he’s been fantastic

Yep, I think he will probably win the award fairly comfortably (North being cactus is probably going to cost JH-F any chance, Rachele probably the main competition from what we have seen)

Is this a rolling thread for the rising star?

Jai Newcombe has been seriously impressive for a number of weeks now. Correct me if im wrong but he is still eligible for the rising star?

Nah he’s not. Played 11 games last year

 

[SSSSSS]

Played 6. He is eligible.

 

[hawkman]

Only 7 last year. Surely wins it this week

 

[XhazzafootyX]

I read it wrong. My bad. Lock this week!

Great game by Newcombe. O’Driscoll has had 3 solid games in a row, could be in with a shot too?

He has.
Being one of the best in a big game that is close probably puts Newcombe ahead

 

[Davo-27]

Newcombe Rising Star Nom incoming, i reckon.

 

[HairyO]

I thought he was great but 31 possessions, 650m gained. And 7 marks. Wow.
