Gold. The End.

need to move him on now while he still has currency




















in 3,2,1............

Good decision by the club to re-sign early in the year, saved us some dollars.

sackry blur mon amy!!

Read that in an Alf Stewart voice...

Beast.

If the rumours of Luke Williams quitting because of our love for Crippa and taking him so early are true ... well then

He was after Rogers job. He would have left eventually.

 

[Moe B]

This handball was so good, the commentators were like no way he meant that.. Then they saw the replay and were like wow...

 

[HARKER]

I wonder if he told Richmond they made the right call on Lennon. This years draft picks seem t have gone past him.

I wish for Lennon to make it as I do for Ellis.......I just don't wish for Richmond to make it

McLean had a similar handball in our second game against the bombers in '12

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Without doubt, the most positive thread ever on the Carlton Board.

He's a gun btw.

McLean did it once..............we'll see this and better many times over.

That gif is like watching the battle scenes from 300

Get out of Crippa's way!

 

[Mister Carlton]

That's my favourite highlight of his so far. Love that willingness to hunt that football.

Gets tackled - Zero ****s were given

I'm not sure whether it has been mentioned. But if you watch the game and see Cripps third up ruck work it was also a thing of joy.

Most third up guys jump as high as they can and their basic function is to smash the ball out more than five metres away from the contest.

Watch Cripps.

He actually approached each third up contest as a ruck contest. I swear he got 3 genuine 'taps' to advantage during the Port game. I reckon Cripps had more taps to advantage than Wood did on the day.

I have all these GIF's on my favourites toolbar so I can open them as soon as I get into work in the mornings. One per tab, looping all bloody day.

My boss is a Saints fanatic, so whenever I see her coming I flick over to the "Crippa annihilates Longer" tab. Never fails to brighten my day

It was very noticeable. Pretty hard for opposition mids to stop that in the future.

Cripps was BOG this week but is unlikely to be next week.
I just want the club to manage him well and give him time playing forward, also.
This year is gone, so there's little point running Cripps into the ground and some protracted spells forward will also hold him and the club in good stead.
He did very well when resting there last year through the VFL games and is particularly difficult to move off his ground. Has terrific body use and kicks straight.
