Our Rookie Rankings have welcomed another fresh face following Round 11, while two players have moved up in our order following the weekend's action.
Collingwood's Joe Richards slots into sixth spot following an impressive start to his career, while fellow Magpie Lachie Sullivan, Hawks forward Calsher Dear, Lion Bruce Reville and Richmond's Mykelti Lefau all sit on the fringes a week out from further rankings expansion.
We'll move to seven spots in our Rookie Rankings after Round 12, opening up more opportunities for this year's crop.
Dear, Sullivan and Richmond's Seth Campbell each earned honourable mentions for their efforts in Round 11.
Selection Criteria:ย For ourย Rookie Rankings, we are ONLY selecting players who have made their debut this season.
Other players who may still be eligible for a Rising Star nomination but have already made their debut before the 2024 season will not be considered. I.e. Rising Star eligible players such as George Wardlaw, Angus Sheldrick and Sam Darcyย are ineligible, having already played anย AFL match before Round 1, 2024.ย
Honourable Mentions:
Seth Campbell (Richmond)
Lachie Sullivan (Collingwood)
Calsher Dear (Hawthorn)
5. Colby McKercher (-2)
Another week off for McKercher due to his ongoing foot issue sees him fall further, this time being two spots in our Rookie Rankings.
A Round 12 bye will further hurt his chances of rising back up our rankings anytime soon, but his spot in fifth should be safe for the time being.

The club will be hoping to have the Pick 2 selection back in the side following their bye when they face West Coast in Perth.
