Cripps Bontempelli Merrett Kelly - the next big 4?

[Trav 20]

Cripps is an unusual looking specimen.

It's a bit confronting seeing a baby's head on such a large body.

Gee, Carlton fans are very defensive.


Look how much better Carlton looked with a better user of the ball in kerridge playing a bigger role

Is Kerridge really a better ball user than Cripps? I don’t think Kerridge is all that good with disposal. Maybe I haven’t seen him play much. Cripp is a decent user. He just has 6 blokes hanging off him most times he gets the footy.

We are getting to the stage where Oliver and M Crouch need to be added into this group

 

[Juddernaut08]

Crouch has been in the discussion since last year. Id have him 5th.

 

[Brutalitops]

Cripps is the most over rated footballer in Australia. Cannot handle a tag, hardly ever kicks a goal, has little impact on the scoreboard at all, his Clanger levels are ridiculous. He runs around in his bandages acting tough but when crunch comes to crunch he has no impact on games.

Id take m crouch over cripps , bont and merret.

I’d have him in front of Merrett, just

M crouch might not have flair of bont or kelly but he is your bread and butter footballer that every team needs. Extremely consistant, huge ball winner,big body and very good in a contest

It's also team mates giving him options. The guy in tight at the contest needs people presenting on the outside. I still have nightmares from 20015 when we lost Shiel and Scully to injury. Ward was contstantly winning the hard ball and turning it over because he had no options.

What you’re saying is stupid and deserves to be laughed at.

 

[SickQwon]

I think it’s about time we add Sam Kerridge to the group. Elite ball user. Lmao

We all know you are trolling but just for interests sakes, explain to me last week.

Cripps had us in the fight against Geelong within 10 points early in the final term. He gets sniped out of the game and geelong kick 3 goals to zip to win the game. The "corkie" he suffered in that game was the reason he hobbled around last night as evidenced by the massive strapping he has had on above the knee since that game.

 

[Loose at HB]

Imagine someone looking to pot a player so badly that they suggest Sam Kerridge is a good user of the ball

The mental gymnastics to actually have to think that is insane.

The moment when the guy you're quoting proves they don't know s**t about what they are talking about.

That moment just happened.

 

[Cadillac]

As prior years have proved, It was only a matter of time before Cripps’ body started to break down. The way he plays it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s completely cooked by his mid 20’s.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

So one player has a s**t game and all Seagulls flock to a chip.

Yuck.

Not really a bread and butter player if you are injured a lot like Crouch.

Crouch is Cripps without the extreme talent.

Yuck.

They did the same after Merrett was concussed. This is truly a s**t magnet of a thread.

If you don’t know what you are talking about then best to just stay in the corner and be quite.

We are talking about MATT Crouch who has hardly been injured, not his brother BRAD

And they do constantly whenever Bont isn’t the best player on the ground.


Carlton fans the most, while they revel in cripps having the best statistics in a 100 point loss

It’s ironic that in your sig you have a quote of another poster getting ahead of themselves.

How does irony apply there?

He copped 1 injury to end his 2017 early, not sure when he’s ever missed footy late in a season aside from last year.

As soon as someone has a sub par or above average game, that player is immediately either put ahead or below the other 3.

Looks forward to another decade of this
