There is some serious talent this year in the AFL so trying to choose the top ten in order for the 2018 Rising Star is no easy task. Here is how I think it the AFL Rising Star award will finish in order based on how the season has gone so far, of course things may change as there is still a long way to go!
In a disappointing year so far for the Adelaide Crows, Doedee has been one of their shining lights. He has played every game so far in 2018 and his statistics show just why he’s a real chance to win this year’s AFL Rising Star. Based on the numbers, Doedee is ranked first in total intercepts, third in contested possessions per game and rebound 50’s per game and second in one percenters per game.
