When was Cripps nominated for the rising star?

For his BOG performance agaisnt the saints in R4.

The Brownlow predictor gives him one vote for that game  :P

I reckon he was fairly consistent throughout the season but was perhaps more visible and/or influential after Judd was injured.

One vote in the Brownlow sounds right then  ;)

Seriously though, I'd be surprised if he doesn't get more than seven votes and I reckon they will be spread across the season but with more of a weighting on the second half.

I suspect he might get a couple of 1s or 2s in games we lost.
It's why I'm looking at a 10+ count.

What I'm going to find interesting is that it will be an indicator of whether or not he's a "Vote catcher"
If he does poll well it will be an indication that in a year or two he may be a genuine contender.

He will poll well, better than most expect, like Judd he is playing well were the umpires are looking.

Everyone knows the umpires don't pay attention until a second good year. It takes two seasons to win a brownlow, let alone win votes usually.   1 to get their attention and then another to win it.

Combine that with our poor win rate and I reckon he won't poll as well as people think.

We got smashed in most of our losses.  Hard to win votes in those scenarios.

Where did you pull that one from?  :)

Cripps won't get as many Brownlow votes as Murphy but he will get more than Hogan.  I reckon he could get up to ten votes.

We'll see.

It's common belief amongst my mates and why Cotchin missed a brownlow a couple of years back.

Told you so!!  :P

In all seriousness it doesnt matter.  It was always going to be a matter of him having to build a profile before getting too many votes, and IMHO, although he had a better impact than his votes reflected, I think he did well to poll as well as he did given simply how few games we won.

Clearly the AFL coaches rate him pretty highly - not too far behind Bontempelli in the Young Players award (based on their performances in their first two years)

Best Young Player

1. Marcus Bontempelli - Western Bulldogs (557 votes)

2. Patrick Cripps – Carlton (527 votes)

3. Jeremy McGovern - West Coast (362 votes)

Jesse Hogan still only a first year player so I guess he'll win it next year.....

This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Every alternative award that gets announced just highlights further how inequitable the Rising Star Award has become, insiders voting for their favorites and almost unrelated to form, efficiency or effectiveness!
