Another Brisbane youngster has made his way into our Rookie Rankings after an up-and-down weekend for this year's class.

Two of the top eight have seen their 2023 seasons brought to premature endings due to injury, while a Roos young gun has fallen out of our rankings due to a setback of his own.

A pair of Tigers have earned nominations for their roles in Saturday's thriller over the Hawks, while a young Blue and Eagles onballer also got HM nods from Round 19.

6. Judd McVee (-)ย 

After jumping two spots last week, McVee holds his place at sixth overall after a quieter weekend in his side's win over Adelaide.

McVee was tasked with taming Crows small forward Izak Rankine before being assigned to another opponent as the Adelaide recruit started firing in the first half.

McVee managed the nine touches in the win and will be looking to get back to his best as the Demons' leading small lockdown defender.

The Demons clash with Richmond this weekend, where McVee could go directly up against either Dustin Martin or Shai Bolton.
