Seriously this is a joke

Idun is a good player,solid year body of work blah blah

But Coopers game will get him coaches votes, got him 8 votes in The Age etc etc

As I mentioned before in the thread Bowey got nominated last week after 3 games for not much , really.

A complete travesty, I am angry about this

Thing is it doesn’t change anything just a bit of a circle wank fest.

Look at Max King. If he was poor last season and got dropped 10 times. This season he would be eligible and be outright favourite

Looking at the FaceBook comments - we are not the only people thinking he was robbed - is there somewhere we can appeal - lol

- Nathan Davies-Green The way this nomination is so dumb. What’s the point of it being a weekly thing if the best young player doesn’t win it every week? Ned McHenry or Cooper Sharman should’ve got it this week. Just nominate multiple players every week if players are gonna get one after an average performance like Idun did.

- Bryce Langford Now I know the name Cooper paired with St Kilda is not usually synonymous with 'star' but come on now

- Tyrone Lowe Sharman and McHenry robbed. What happen to giving it to a few extras

- Jack Bascombe Sharman robbed Norton Timothy

- Henry Sholl These are the worst highlights i've ever seen, sharminator robbed

- James Thomas This proves that the system is rigged

- Luke Francis Cooper Sharman??? AFL

- Matt DeLorme Sharman all kinds of robbed here Jake Huggard

- Connor Scott Jarrod Livingstone Did Sharman have to kick 6 goals to get a look in? 😂

- Tab Hayes Sam Bannister sharman vs mchenry vs guy who received the kick in a couple of times

- George Wagland Sharman robbed

- Rami Eid have you seen this Samuel ahahahahaha EVERYONE in the football world was debating sharman vs mchenry but then the AFL nominate this guy! Check out that highlight package ahahaha

- Mariellen Coles Cooper Sharman much better highlights from round 23

- Ian Kersey 'Highlights package', what a joke, Sharman or McHenry absolutely robbed. Rising star nominations desperately need an overhaul

- Emily Mills Stewart Mills Coops has been absolutely robbed!

- Paul De Jong How did Cooper Sharman not get the nomination

- Zac Nixon That’s not how you spell Cooper Sharman?

- Dan Taylor Lol Cooper is probably going to get Brownlow votes yet doesn’t get a RS nom 😂

- Jackson Kendall Sharman robbed

- Josefino Jr Jayme Martin Vaifale Sharman robbed 💀 - Worst rising star nom this year

- Anthony Gualtieri Luke Anthony sharman robbed

- Blair Ryan Sharman robbed Jack Yelland

- Kyle Gledhill sharman robbed Isaiah Buenaseda Mitch Khawli

- Matthew Paulet Thomas Maher Sharman robbed

- Andrew Heard Cooper Sharman stiffer than a honeymooners c#$k ???? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

- Andrew Ritter So Cooper Sharman doesn't exist?

- Chad Randazzo Idunno about that one

- Chris Poole Thats a joke right?

- Luke Daniel Copper Sharman robbed !!

- Mitchell Black Zac MacDonald Abe Gibson cooper sharman robbed

- Ron Genin Gabe Teperman Sharman robbed

- Ashley Susskind Julian Keller Cooper Sharman not getting the nod this week is a national tragedy

- Nathan Beaumont Mitchell Beaumont games in tassie mustn’t count


He is not going to win the Rising Star - but a Nomination would be nice

So bloody annoying. It was a genuine break out game and it wasn't just his stats he imposed himself upon that game and was dominating.

I'm angry too.

Cooper possibly made it look too easy Sunday and selectors, whoever they are, under rate the Dockers' defence. Also he is simply not fashionable, just goes about it without any aggro, angst or style statement. The award's credibility takes a hit. But he wouldn't have won the year thing anyway - as said, not yet fashionable, until suddenly an expert notices his stats: who is that #43 way up in the air, with the ball, they'll ask.

Well not seeing a lot of 'aggro', 'angst' or 'style statement' -- whatever the hell those things mean -- in those highlights or at least no more than Sharman showed.

I do see a lot of handballs and kicks to the pocket though. I guess that's somewhat angsty.

Dear me.
