Round 14

This week, the nomination goes the way of a second year player who may be finally about to make his mark. Will Brodie put up a 78 in a sign that he might be building into the player PNL would be desperate for him to become.

[Ricochet]

[DazBurg]

Yay Brodie
Need some more rising star noms at the reindeers

[Holz]

Good team of the week this one. No Pie

thats a terrible sign for the competition.

Doedee - 14 senior games + 1 reserves game @ 86.87
Withergun - 15 senior games @ 85.13

Looks like a two-horse race for the WXV Rising Star. Witho needs to outscore Doedee by 27 points over the final two rounds to come out on top on the averages. Doedee conveniently gets to exclude his 59 from AFL round 13 in his average while Witho misses out on his 78 from AFL round 11, otherwise would only need to make up 8 points over the final two rounds. Who wins it from here?

Neither are getting a vote from me. Is a first year player award in my mind. Stepho is the man.

I'll knock out rounds 15 and 16 together once Purps hooks me up with the info. Stay tuned.
