Brisbane Lions' Tayla Harris and Melbourne midfielder Lily Mithen are the round two nominations for the AFL Women's Rising Star award.

Brisbane Lions key position player Tayla Harris and Melbourne midfielder Lily Mithen are the round two nominations for the AFL Women's Rising Star award.

Harris, 19, was the stand-out player in the Lions' last ditch win over the Dockers, with her clutch goal helping Brisbane remain undefeated.

Mithen rotated through the midfield and forward line in the Demons' 19-point victory over Collingwood on Saturday night.

The 18-year-old was one of the Demons' best in their first AFLW win, finishing with 11 kicks, three handpasses and three marks.
