The NAB AFL Rising Star award is given annually to a standout young player in the Australian Football League (AFL).[1] The award was won by Carlton's Sam Walsh, marking the fourth time that a player taken first in the draft had won the award.

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]
