FREMANTLE forward Jye Amiss has been rewarded for his outstanding performance in the Dockers' round 11 victory with an AFL Rising Star nomination.

The young gun kicked three goals in one of his best games yet in Fremantle's upset seven-point win over Melbourne on Saturday afternoon.

Amiss collected 14 disposals (six contested), three tackles, 336m gained, had two goal assists and six score involvements to go with his three majors to be a key player in the Dockers' fourth win on the trot.

Amiss, a 196cm key forward, was recruited with pick No.8 in the 2021 draft. He debuted in round eight last year but only played the one game before returning to the WAFL where he suffered a serious kidney injury that required surgery, sidelining him for an extended period.

The 19-year-old got the call up for the Dockers' elimination final against the Western Bulldogs where he played a key role in the win, kicking two crucial goals to help turn the tide and cement the exciting win.

He has played in all of Fremantle's games this year aside from round one, kicking 19 goals.
