Round 9 JONES MOVES UP
SOUTH Fremantle
midfielder Clint Jones has moved into equal second in the voting for the
Network Ten Rising Star Award.
Jones was
impressive in the Bulldogs’ narrow loss to
East Perth last
weekend, while Perth had the bye, preventing leader Michael Johnson from
collecting any votes.
The Rising Star
award is judged each week by a panel of football journalists who collectively
will attend each match before voting on a
3-2-1 basis.
To be eligible
for the award, players must have played eight league games or less at the start
of the 2003 season and must be aged 21 or under at the end of the home-and-away
season.
West Coast and
Fremantle rookie list players are able to win the award unless they are
promoted onto the senior list during 2003. Players who are suspended by the
tribunal during the home-and-away season will also be ineligible.
The presentation
of the award will be conducted at an end of season function hosted by Football
Budget publishers Wright Media.
