Round 2 Rising Star - Josh Hill (Western Bulldogs)

[Zeke]

All the more credit to Collingwood. But the Rising Star recognises individual efforts, Nathan could do more by himself, that's all I'm saying.

Oh, I see.

You didn't see the game.

Carry on.

 

[bomba4eva]

Well done.

Wasn't this post about Josh Hill?

Not about Caroline Wilson against Collingwood

It's funny, that what I thought coming into the thread

Maybe it should be changed to poor Nathan Brown and poor Collingwood football club?

FFS allow we should be singing Hills praises not talking about someone else

Oh, I see.

You didn't see the game.

Carry on.

Better to see the game with two eyes, as I did, as opposed to you just seeing it one eyed, precious much?

Tippett will get next weeks

 

[Silvagnis]

Hampson will get a nomination in the next two months.

Beating the two best forwards in the competition is not enough?

How can you say he beat Pavlich?

Pavlich had 21 touches, 10 marks and one goal, so I guess he pantsed him.

Brown kicked two goals three.

Anything else would be disrespectfull.

Well done Josh 2 great weeks in a row keep it going...

 

[lids2004roar]

Can't believe we picked up Carl Peterson just 1 pick before this bloke Already delisted...

 

[red+black]

What a token choice . Should have gone to some Collingwood player.

Oops, sorry, wrong week.

 

[Zeke]

How can you say he beat Pavlich?

Pavlich had 21 touches, 10 marks and one goal, so I guess he pantsed him.

Because Pavlich couldn't buy a kick inside 50, which would have been Brown's task. No scoreboard damage, Brown wins.

Brown kicked two goals three.

...and gave Nathan a huge wrap after the game. Said he was a 'star of the future' if I remember correctly. Star of the future = rising star, same thing?

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

So Nathan is penalised because Collingwood plays as a team?

I watched the game and Nathan beat JB many, many times in one on one contests. He racked up a bagful of spoils and tackles.

Lets be serious, pal

Two kicks and one handball is not quite enough to qualify for a Rising star nomination just yet.

Just let the kid fly under the radar for a few more weeks. Pies supporters know how good he is going to be, thats all that matters. The rest of the world can find out in their own good time.

In the meantime, well done Josh Hill. If only I can get that freaking AFL website to work my first dreamteam trade wil be in Hill out Dew.

Congratulations to JOSH HILL for getting the nomination. Thoroughly deserved i reckon.

Geez the nerve of some people on here, guys, if you want to talk about N. Brown, its simple. Create a separate thread!

THIS thread is about young JOSH HILL receiving a nomination, and I think he'll be a player to watch.

Congrats to Josh Hill

 

[future jed]

absolute superstar. if he continues his form he is an absolute shoe in for the nab rising star and will develop into the next franklin

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Last week people said rioli didnt get the nom coz Melbourne played so bad, so why did Hill get it this week?

 

[campbell]

Good player, deserves the nomination.

Wa wa wa. His time will come, stop hijacking the thread (how insular can some people get )

Josh was close round 1, well deserved this round. Moves like a young Rob Murphy, albeit with an extraordinary leap.

consistency? kicked 2 goals and played very well against adelaide in round 1

 

[Dogs_r_barking]

Well done Josh - well earned nomination. Another 20 rounds to go for Rioli, Brown and co - so calm down you lot.
I reckon Rioli will get it next week - I picked him in my supercoach and he is a nice little earner. (I have Josh as well!)

 

[rumblah]

listen to yourself mate. The kid played a ripper, Rioli's time will come.

And if he didn't get nominated, id probably be happier cause it'd be less pressure on the kid.
