The AFL Rising Star award is given annually to a standout young player in the Australian Football League (AFL).[1] In 2023, the award was won by North Melbourne player Harry Sheezel.

Eligibility

[edit]

Every round, a nomination is given to a standout young player who performed well during that particular round. To be eligible for nomination, a player must be under 21 on 1 January of that year and have played ten or fewer senior games before the start of the season; a player who is suspended may be nominated, but is not eligible to win the award.[1]

Each member awarded five votes to the player they determined most deserving, four votes to the second-most deserving, and so on to one vote to the fifth-most deserving.
