Least deserving nomination since Colin '2 game' Sylvia.

Here we go again. Which Collingwood player did he steal the nomination off? Egan?

Did you even watch the last Dogs match or do you just make judgements on stats? Did you see the goal he kicked?

Julian Rowe deserves one before they start tossing round freebies.

The reality of the situation is if Griffin played for Collingwood you'd be saying "It's about time"

Rising star isn't judged in stats, it's judged on what the kid has shown.

Rowe... Haha. You are a fool of the highest order.

Please do not use his name in the same thread as Griffen. The latter will be an absolute star whilst the former will have to settle for being a bit player with that microscopic heart of his.

Congrats Griff. Been a pleasure watching your silky performances.

No I wouldn't. You don't hear me claiming Egan should recieve one.

Exactly. Rowe has shown more than Griffen, to date.

IMO, Rowe has shown he can be a solid, consistent performer at AFL level.
Griffen has showed absolute star qualities, his game against Carlton was oustanding and whilst Rowe has had higher possession games than that I haven't seen him (I haven't seen all of his games) show some of the rare qualities that Griffen has. His tackling and intent on the contest was very good and his goal was outstanding. His last three weeks have been good.

Hmmm, so how has Rowe shown "more" than Griffin? Because he was a black and white jersey?
Have you even seen Griffin play?

Gotta hand it to you, Zeke. You have an innate ability to rile opposition supporters. Normally there is a method to your madness, but this comment ranks as probably the most ill-informed one you have ever made on BF.

Griff has given great rebound service across HB for the last 3 weeks. Has hardly wasted a possession in that time. Many of our forward thrusts have been initiated by his run and precise delivery. Has looked like he's been playing for 5 years, not 5 minutes. His efforts have been duly rewarded, not prematurely.

Totally agree that Rowe was deserving of a nomination early in the season, but his form in recent weeks has tapered off. Has had a poor last 2 games for Collingwood.

BTW, agree with you on Sylvia's nomination.
