CARLTON youngster Matthew Kreuzer has been rewarded for his impressive performance against Port Adelaide with the round 11 nomination for the NAB Rising Award.
The Blues trailed by 30 points heading into the final change before Kreuzer turned the game on its head, booting three of his side's seven last-quarter goals as Carlton recorded a stunning 12-point win.
Last year's No.1 draft pick has impressed in his nine games and has shown maturity beyond his years, according to coach Brett Ratten.
“Matthew has continued to impress during his debut season. His ability to play in numerous positions has been of enormous benefit to the team. For a player to have had such an impact on a game so early in his footy career is a rarity,” Ratten said.
“He is a level-headed kid, mature beyond his years, and a real pleasure to coach.”
