JACK HOMBSCH has been nominated for ‘Mark of the Year’ for his courageous mark running back with the flight against Geelong on Saturday night.

Hombsch, playing his first game of the AFL season, was fantastic in his return to the Port Adelaide side in ANZAC Round.

The 25-year-old had 15 disposals, seven marks and eight one-percenters against the Cats.

Richmond skipper Trent Cotchin and Carlton ruckmen Andrew Phillips were the other two players who were nominated in Round 5.
