Who does Martin have to kill to win a rising star award?

[TigerFlag2017]

Wow, I hadn’t looked at it like that good point. I hadn’t considered the comparison between Johan Brown and Nathan Fyfe but it’s obvious it hindsight.

Nice one.

You're slipping colonel!

 

[Tigermad2005]

No great loss.

I just don't have the withering sarcasm that I had for past Hawthorn trolls like turbo tiger and Abe-whatever-he-was-called.

The side has to win a game to get Martin a nomination. If the Tigers win and Martin's in that side even if it's not his best game he'll probably get the nomination.

Agree. Sponsors want to be associated with winning.

Just a side note (since Nathan Fyfe has been mentioned in the thread), Nathan is a big Richmond supporter.
Oh, he was apparently a neighbour of the Morton boys too.

Best of luck to the kid (except when he plays against the Tigers).

Goes alright young Fyfe - recall a nice little receive in traffic and split the traffic open like it was standing still. may he find his way home ;D

Nah he can win a nomination, he can't win the overall award......... it's all a pile of crap

From the HS today:

Apart from Naitanui the best backed in pre-season was Richmond's Dustin Martin, who is eligible despite receiving a match review reprimand for a front-on bump in Round 3.

He's been taken off the betting markets for Rising Star. Don't think he's eligible to win but I think he can still receive a nomination.

 

[Disco08]

He's listed wherever the HS got their info for this article from.

KB said on SEN this morning that Martin cannot win the Rising Star award, but he can be nominated.

Probably won't get a nomination as he can't win it anyway, just like how a lot of players don't get as many Brownlow votes after they have been suspended.

No way, there are quite a few players each year that get close to winning but have been suspended throughout the season.

Martin will get a nomination.

Martin will get a nomination.

Only if Richmond win a game and they can't find anyone else.

Not sure about that, bookies still have him 6-1 to win the award.

 

[brigadiertiger]

Pretty sure you have to be suspended to be ineligible to win it same as the Brownlow.

Also like the Brownlow if you don't play in a successful team you have no hope of winning it.
