Kieren "Cracker" Jack

[swantastic]

The reason why we never get Rising Star nominations is we hardly ever play young players so we cant complain.


On saying that i hope Jackieboy can be as good to the Swans as his old man was to the rugby world.

BTW...GREAT WORK ON (WAYNE)KERR.....JACKIEBOY.

Well done Son of Gary. SOGGY!!!

I'm pretty sure Goodesy was the last nomination!!!

It's been a while.

Good on ya Kieren.

Good on ya Kieren.

Goodsey last winner, Bevan last nomination.

Goodsey last winner, Bevan last nomination.

See!!!
See how much of an impact Bevo makes??

And Schneider, Kennelly and LRT have all been nominated since Goodes, in addition to Bevan.

Still a pretty low hit rate over 8 or so years, but given that so many of our younger players don't get a chance until they are over the age limit, it's not really surprising.

Is there an age limit on the rising star?
I didn't know that.

There's a short clip of some highlights from his game on Saturday. Best bit by far is the look on Kerr's face after Jack kicks a goal.

Any links you care to share????

How's that joke go about Sydney not having any young talent?

Not sure if that will take you to the clip. But there is a link on the AFL homepage.

Other than the goal (and behind) he kicked, most of the snippets don't actually lead to a score. But it's great to see the purpose in his drive forward, always at least giving team mates a chance.

ONYA KIERAN. Finally some good news for the club.

You really have to be a Sydney supporter to know of the talent we have. Unlike the top young players at Victorian teams, ours aren't all over the news and being interviewed on TFS.

You're sounding very grim today Grim.

How's this:

We not only smashed our deadly rival, we towelled them up so badly that they're now considered GAWWNNN for the season.

We're third on the table with the best percentage in the league.

Jack is hot, and so are Moore and Cheese, and Mattner's done all we hoped he would do

Ryan O'Keefe's top of the real footy player of the year polling.

HOW MUCH MORE BLOODY GOOD NEWS COULD THERE BE??!!!

[NMWBloods]

We're fourth actually, but we are in pretty good shape at the moment, although we'll have a better idea after the weekend.




BTW: isn't Jack's nickname "cracker" not "crackers"?
