Brownlow Congratulations Patrick Cripps - 2022 Brownlow Medalist 🏅

[teagueyubeauty]

Should have just played a straight bat, like he would have done with his beloved team for instance. Instead, he had to highlight how upset he was on Cripps biggest individual award. F$&@ him.

Wasn’t it an interview at the time, some 5-6 weeks ago? Surely he didn’t say that in the last 24 hours

Can anyone find a link to his acceptance speech from last night ? I’ve tried everywhere with no luck.
Thanks guys

Well done Skip. Thoroughly deserved recognition of a fantastic season and a brilliant footballer.

Many wrote him off but he carried himself and led this team with aplomb. As he always has.

I am so glad he finally gets some recognition for the career he has had to date. Here's hoping there are many more accolades to come.

Carlton footy club website had Crippa full 16 minute speech up

Did anyone else honestly believe Crippa won it once they left the Carlton v Collingwood last in the round 23 polling.

Its been a while it seems since a player won the Brownlow in the final round of voting, last few years, the winner seemingly won it with 1 or 2 rounds to spare.

How many times has everyone said, messaged or just randomly yelled "CRIPPA!!!!" today?

I think I'm around 63ish.

Yelled Townsend a few times

I loved Juddy but having a drafted developed a Brownlow Medalist captain is something very special
It’s so good watching him evolve and grow from the average public speaker to the confident self assured communicator.
Watching him lead the team out of the race always gave me confidence just because of his physical stature.
Now I have faith that he can develop relationships and gives speeches to inspire the team
The speech he gave showed high intelligence he didn’t repeat himself he’s gathered a lot of knowledge since he joined us
I feel he is truly maturing and understanding his own power this confidence is infectious
Watching peak Cripps over the next few years is going to be so much fun
The laconic country wisdom and values along with his steely will to improve and win make him a great Leader

I think he got pretty lucky. He shouldn't have got any votes mid season. He was more deserving of the Brownlow in 2019. But he spoke well and this win will enhance his leadership and our team culture. But I think Shai Bolton is the best player in the league right now though.

If we can draft some decent wingers and our small forwards improve, we can win the premiership next year.

Here he is!

Shai Bolton is a inconstant flashy player and isn’t worthy of tying the shoelaces of the top 10 brownlow voters from yesterday’s count, let alone the winner.

Team for next season:

H: Williams-----------------McGovern---------------Saad

C: Docherty-----------------Cripps----------------*Acres

H: Silvagni-----------------C.Curnow---------------Martin

F: Honey---------------------McKay----------------Motlop

Foll: *Grundy, Cerra, Walsh

Bench: De Koning, Marchbank, Hewett, Cuningham


Emerg: Pittonet, Young, Kennedy, Kemp, Durdin, Fisher

Trade/Delist: Plowman, Fogarty, Setterfield, Dow

He’s back!

Any idea yet on who the “new player” in the back pocket next year for us should be?

Interesting article that shows who would have won the Brownlow Medal had they not changed the way it was counted and stuck to the original most best on grounds…

In that case Diesel and Judd and Cripps would have still won their years

But Justin Madden would have won in 1985, Paul Meldrum in 1987, SOS in 1990, and Matthew Allan

Brownlow Medal winners that might have been

What if they kept the same voting system used up until 1930?...the winners list would look very different👇

What did Gil say about Cripps successful appeal?

AFL boss doubles down on Cripps appeal call

'Confusing at best'

The comments are in that article. Gil actually said them before the Brownlow at some stage and they leaked out.

Crippa’s response was perfect, “He called my name for the last three votes, so I’ll just leave it at that.”

 

[RPCB]

We say that Tom Mitchell was excited that Crippa won the Brownlow, his partner was equally as excited for him.

 

[Kramer1]

May just be the conditioning to gut wrenching, sack clenching despair, but I thought he missed out when he didn't get the 2 votes.

Best Carlton moment since a hobbled Judd tore tens of thousands Tiger hearts out at a packed 'g some 9 years back.

Gil is a little contradictory here....on one hand he thinks Cripps suspension should have been upheld and on the other he thinks Cripps is a worthy Brownlow winner. It has to be one or the other.
