Only a Coleman, Norm Smith and a Brownlow will sufficeGeez the expectations on this kid this thread will melt if he doesn’t win the Coleman next year
Yeah. McKay won the Coleman this year with 58. That's unders for Sharman next year. 80 probably par.Only a Coleman, Norm Smith and a Brownlow will suffice
Well he needs a little bit of muscle. Just to stick tackles and apply forward pressure. I see him get to the contests and bounce off the defenders. But yeah don’t go trying to make him into the. g Train or anythingI'm not sure we want him to bulk up, he's got tremendous agility as it is, and its almost like i wouldn't want to change him and accidentally mess something up.
The way he plays he doesn't really need the extra bulk, and the umpires seem to be a bit harder on those who monster the skinny kids.
Derm is pretty hard to listen to but I'll make an exception when he's chatting about forwards and their leading patterns.
I think the Syd/Gordon ambiguity at Marvel that has caused so much confusion among AFL fans could also be resolved with a subtle renaming of one end for 2022.

Dean Kent certainly hit him in that quarter.Should have hit him
Dermie knows his stuff, no one can refute that, but god I wish I had his talent for making 10 words into a thousand. My high school presentations would have been easyVery true, you can tell he’s really passionate about it. Sharman is all this board can talk about recently and for good reason, a gift from the footy gods.
Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed that footage very much.
And the other end the Cooper end.
Except when they don't.The last half a dozen rounds are always about making sure at least some of the "consistently selected" eligibles get given a participation trophy, rather than "best of the round" as the first 10-15 weeks are.
Not surprising the Sharmanator didn't get it, but still disappointing.

Who?Yeah , Lockett went to Sydney, he can have an alcove near the garbage skip.
Who?
My point exactly. If they don't like what happens nominating by round then change the way nominations work to reward a body of work and not a single game. I'm just sick of all these explanations as to why a saints player doesn't get a nom. If they play a great game "oh they didn't get nominated because this random giants scrub has been ok for half a year". If they play a good body of work like Byrnes "oh but this player had a big week".It rarely is though, they usually don't get a nomination without a consistent run of good games. Coops had that so it's frustrating.
Sharman not winning a Rising Star nomination might be a good thing if it allows him to slip under the radar for next year.

Hahaha this is a joke yeah?My god we were playing McKernan....did the selectors not see what was in front of them ?

But Connor Idun had 17 mongrel disposals and kept Eddie to "only" 2 goals in his last game... clearly a better performance than the GOAT II: Electric Boogaloo.After only coming onboard mid-season, he already averaged 2 goals a game in his first three full games.
ONLY 19 other AFL players averaged 2 or more goals this season. None of them eligible for rising star.
If we continue to ignore his first ( sub ) game, he averaged 2.5 That puts him in the company of Toby Green and Tom Hawkins.
