Have to agree with Matty Lloyds assesment of Mitchell,Lloyd twice in last few days has said Tom is the best decision maker he has seen come thru the AIS squads.Injuries permitting i wouldnt make him play reserves ever again.

I know one thing - I cannot remember a better debut from a kid (under 21). Not based on his stats but based on the conditions and having to face up to the mature harden bodies in the slippery wet conditions. The stats were 6 tackles (as much as anyone) and 9 goal assists!! that's is incredible. The RWO twitter person who got big odds about Mitchell winning the rising star should be very happy, cause I think he has a real chance.
9 score involvements not assists
Whitfield wins rising star nomination....He had 20 poss's and 1 goal, in a full game....And I'll bet he didn't have 9 score involvement's!
Mitchell must of been close.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT
They very rarely give it to first gamers unless they are close to BOG
Whitfield was good in that game and deserves the nomination, as ugg said they rarely give it to someone on debut and I think they like to see a body of work. Whitfield's young and slight, but in the games he's played at AFL level so far you can see why he was a #1 pick.
I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
Yeah Whitfield has been consistent all season.
