Rookie of the Year

[AlwaysGreen]

Might already be a thread on this, if so mods do what you need to do.

Contenders?

Nick Cotric from the Raiders (yes the bloke from my team) has been exceptional so far, albeit with a few small issues to fix up going forward.

Jayden Brailey was a cert for this until that merkin broke his jaw!

 

[Clifferd]

Moses Suli from the Tigers

Been great in his debut at just 18 years old, don't think he'll win it but I've personally been impressed with him.

Nah he wasn't.

I don't see another rookie in the same league as Cotric in 2017 tbh. He's the rookie of the last 5 years IMHO. He's comparable to Inglis at the same age.

i see bobby is still jizzing over canberra or nz players

Nah he wasn't.

No way. Jack Bird is the best rookie of the last 5 years

But I agree Cotric is probably the best this year

Best Young Winger

 

[nick87]

CHN or Cotric would be my picks

Cleary/Bird/Taylor. All better in the last 5 years.

Still every chance played 16 games in the f**king front row.....

Vs a Winger......you know the blokes who hang around footballers.

That said, Nick has been impressive, but still a winger.

 

[Nice Beaver]

Cotric.

Been a pretty average year for rookies TBH.

 

[mave]

Cotric for sure.

 

[POPEYE]

Cotric . . . who else is there

Agreed, Canberra have the best young Winger in the game in Cotric, best young Centre in Croker and best young fullback in Wighton.

 

[yobbo84]

Cleary/Bird/Taylor. All better in the last 5 years.

I'd argue George Burgess was better in 2013 too - don't let his form now fool you, he was unstoppable those first two years.

But yeah, Cotric for 2017.

 

[Das Gupta]

Corey Harawira-Naera

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Can't think of too many rookies who have gotten an extended go.

Cotric, Brailey, CHN, and Kelly are the only 4 that immediately spring to mind.

 

[Vic Mackey]

cotric for mine

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Cleary/Bird/Taylor. All better in the last 5 years.

Cos 2 of those guys are halfbacks, the other is destined for 5/8....and Cotric's a mere winger?

Cotric plays his position better than most rookies I've seen over the past several years.

IMHO Cotric's a better winger in 2017 than Ash Taylor or Nathan Cleary were halfbacks in 2016.

IMHO Cotric's a better winger in 2017 than Jack Bird was a utility in 2015.

If you're comparing a 2017 Taylor, Bird or Cleary to a 2017 Cotric, that's a different story.

Cotric's the one shining light of our awful season.

You just mad cos the Dogs don't produce any decent rookies, and you've gotta sign other clubs scraps (eg. Brenko). Bred not bought remember?
