That all Carlton women are glamma's.

But looks, on this occasion, must come second to athletic ability.

Of course if they happen to have both................................

This is all very generous of you ladies (and those guys) but he needs to be coupled with athletic women to improve the chances of the children.

I think it should just be a condition of entry for the Australian Open Women's Championships.

Imagine a Serena Williams/Patrick Cripps clone. Average contested possessions up from 14 to 45 a game

Speaking of cloning and various future Blues nefarious experimentations, imagine a Cripps/Judd hybrid clone :o

195cm tall (210cm on a Thursday), lightning burst acceleration and pace, overhead marking, wizard hands... and a baby-faced grimace.

When he retires in 13 years no-one will recall he actually played a few games alongside CJ

I will remember his game against the Crows because Juddy's last touch of a footy was by reverse irony, courtesy of Cripps himself.

The matter that has me irate is that Cripps was allowed to retake the field after coming off injured in the last quarter. The ABC radio callers (and the CH 7 callers) all thought hammy, but possibly cramp. Subsequently Cripps came back on and the provisional caller diagnosis was cramp. It turns out he had "bleeding into his thigh".

Now I am not a medico but would be very surprised if going back out to a footy game is orthodox treatment for such an injury.

Now again I am not a medico but I would be very surprised if someone suffering noticeably from bleeding into the thigh is going to recover in the same sort of time frame as we all know people can recover from cramp that might explain his re-entry into the game. It is hard for me, admittedly in the absence of important facts, to consider permitting Cripps to resume playing as medical best practice. If he weren't a budding star I would be appalled. That he is only underlines the lack of care for the long-term health of our players for the presumed short term game of getting players back into the action as quickly as possible.

Although Warnock hasn't played for weeks we now learn his season is over and he needs shoulder surgery. If our medical staff thought more about the health and welfare of the players than they did about quick turn-arounds just maybe our playing list would be healthier than it has been. Kreuzer's long absences raise their own suspicions. The NO MORE QUICK FIX mantra should extend to every level of the Club.

Has the club confirmed bleeding into his thigh or just Doc Larkin?
