2008 NAB Rising Star

I'll say it again.

Palmer - 20 games
Cotchin - 15 games

If Cotchin doesn't get a single vote for "not enough games" then there's no way in hell Palmer deserves 5 votes because of an extra 5 games using the same logic.

Healy is not fit to be a judge.

Hmm good point, while Palmer and Rioli did more on average than Cotch, he certainly deserved to be ranked 3rd on performance this year even without a pre-season.

Gerard Healy. Yes, I remember him. He was the guy who announced in the media years ago that Richmond and Melbourne were merging. Created a storm. And when asked what proof he had of this, he admitted he had none, and that all he was basing his claims on were because he saw Cameron Schwab (CEO at the time) having a coffee with a Melbourne person.

Heh heh heh heh. He had to make a rather highly embarrassing public retraction.

Absolute tool.

Agree totally Redders.
Healy was relevant about 15 years ago, these days most of what comes out of his mouth is an embarrassment.
Should give it away or better yet someone with any sense should punt him from his media gigs.
