Universal Love 2018 Brownlow Medal

[boltsbabyblues]

What a champion effort from Cripps. Imagine if we won a few games!

Son of ex-Carlton player wins brownlow, talks about being in our change rooms idolising Kouta..... what could have been

Yeh , that shits me badly. Our historical mismanagement and buffoonery has cost us big time. Mitchell should have been ours

Proud of Cripps

Mitchell meh. Sidebottom would have been a more worthy winner.

yep

 

[Inzy7]

No words will do it justice what our man Crippa did tonight!! to poll 20 votes in a side that won two games was such an amazing effort and we should thank our lucky stars to have this man don the famous navy blue jumper!!

 

[gardiner stand]

Took that as a sneaky bet, looking okay so far

You have a win?

Courtesy of Champion Data, Cripps predicted for 29th place.

 

[RAPPA]

Win 8+ games and Cripps is a genuine chance. Goes to show his 25-30 possie game in a loss, even a heavy loss, is recognised as opposed to 40 seagull touches in the same scenario. Beast

 

[Quazza]

Personally, think Mitchell was a pretty deserving winner.

But holy s**t he seems like a boring bloke. Then mid speech...

I thought the helmet is a permanent thing for Angus now?

Why?

 

[thylacine60]

that fifth para is very confusing.......

 

[Benaly28]

Congrats CRIPPA.If Nat Fyfe stays fit and dosent get suspended wins it by a mile.

very eye-catching I have to say........

 

[thylacine60]

Why?

because it sticks out like keith greig's ankle-guards in the seventies.........

 

[Jabba73]

Maybe Cripps can wear Andrew Walkers hat, gotta get more attention

>Cripps only polled 5 times last year

Maybe because he broke his leg?

 

[FootyGeek]

Just to give some perspective.

Since 1978 these are the Carlton players that have polled 20 or more votes.

Ashman
Madden
Allan
Williams (1 win)
Judd x3 (1 win)

All of these were done with much more than two wins.

 

[RedFury]

Good point. His possessions would stick in the mind.

 

[Opine]

Switched off at round 19 when it was apparent that the most worthy winner was not going to win

 

[Opine]

As i write i still don't know for sure who won. couldn't be bothered; I guess i should check now thats its decided.

In fact they were all done in years in which we played finals.

 

[BIuebagger]

Well done Crippa, you beast. Very proud. Can absolutely take one of these home in the coming years. 2 wins and polls 20, unreal.

 

[Opine]

Still wouldn't tag him
