Mark LeCras from the West Coast Eagles is the Round 22 NAB AFL Rising Star nominee, after bagging five goals in their comprehensive 88-point win over Richmond at the MCG.
LeCras earned his fifth AFL game after kicking 15 goals in two games for West Perth in the fortnight prior, including a bag of eight last week.
The 20-year-old’s recall saw him finish with 14 kicks and 10 marks as he staked a claim for West Coast's qualifying final against Sydney.
LeCras played junior football in Perth for Cervantes and represented Western Australia in the 2004 NAB AFL Under 18 Championships and was named All-Australian.
He was the Eagles’ second selection (37th overall) in the 2004 NAB AFL Draft.
Marks’ brother Brent is listed with the Kangaroos, while his father, Peter, played in East Fremantle’s 1979 premiership.
LeCras is the Eagles second nomination this year after impressive midfielder Matt Rosa was nominated in round 10.
