Yep, C.Judd - 1 premiership, 1 Norm Smith, 2 Brownlows. Nick Reiwoldt - a set of embarrassing photos and one scorched midget.

That is pure Gold, you bum-olive! :thumbsu::D
 
At the end of the day we know Cripps deserved the rising star. Screw the judges and the media hype surrounding Hogan. While he has had a good year I don't believe he's been as consistent as Cripps. This may be a blessing and spur Cripps to bigger and better things. Cripps is a future all Australian brownlow medalist and premiership Captain.

And monstered many of them, it should be said. Worthy winner but I don't like the way the media (particularly the ex-kpf players) have coerced this result.

Agree with all. 39 goals from 15 games as a 17yr old is nothing to sneeze at nor is what he's done this year.

Cripps played 168 off minutes last year, what he did in pre-season to improve should have been taken into account more.

Funny but harsh on Riewoldt, reckon he's St Kilda's greatest player of all time (or maybe equal with Doc)

Honest and true. We are Carlton and .... The rest. At the end of the day we have 16 premierships and some have 1. I know and trust the club will leave no stone unturned to ensure we get to 17 before anyone else. That's why we're hated.
 
Well done to Crippa for such an outstanding season that he did as well as he did, regardless of the result.

He's already becoming an elite mid. Extra fitness, practice at set shots and just more games in general, he's going to be a super weapon. Mark my words, if they're not already, there will be teams with major headaches before matches trying to work out how they can possibly stop him.

Just saying, but do you think it's possible Cripps was snubbed because he was nicknamed "The New Diesel" and we all know what happened back in 1993...

This is clearly an AFL agenda against fast-handed inside-midfielders from Carlton.

Your handiwork in this post has been appropriated by the arsehats over on the Bummers board.

Such an intelligent bunch...they'd always definitely understand sarcasm...wouldn't they??

Hai guys if you're still trawling!!
 
Your boy was runner-up to a kid who could prove the best key forward of his generation.

Ours was runner-up to a little wind-up toy that goes in circles. And there was even a betting scandal! (but we're used to those) ;)

Seriously though, it's so inconsequential in the long run. You've nabbed a kid that is good enough to build a club around, and he's got his head screwed on tight enough to handle that pressure.

Love him. Whenever he calls time, he won't have room in his trophy cabinet for a pissy little trinket with Ron Evans' mug on it.
 
Congratulations to Cripps for a fantastic season, and providing us supporters with hope for the future. A wonderful achievement by someone still so young.

Awesome post is awesome.

* everything and anyone* involved in the AFL sporting the surname Evans!

*excluding those who are not complete ass-hats, especially making room for those not involved with *

Aye we know but we have to keep up appearances, we don't want to disappoint opposition supporters by being magnanimous;)

Good to know, I've been working on my foaming at the mouth, tin foil hat meltdown lunacy routine for a while now. Great to finally get the recognition.
