People getting ahead of themselves. Let's see how he handles that sniping dog Mark Stevens.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

He's learning. I reckon he fumbled more times in that interview than he will for his entire career.

I hear Crisp from Collingwood has a much stronger interview game.

Inconsistent I'd say.

Sometimes Crisp's interviews are cool, fresh and invigorating. Other times they are firm, dry and brittle.

He had a bit of a Stttuuttter.

Tends to crack under pressure. Not quite the full packet.

Full of hot air...

 

[RedFury]

Geez he seemed way more nervous in that interview than other times I've seen him interviewed.

 

[Mathew05]

I cant wait. The first game I get to see live this season looking forward to seeing cripps and the other young boys

 

[Demon 16]

Hey guys how tall is Cripps?

What a beast.

 

[Stan Van Gundy]

You've got a real gem on your hands Blues fans. This kid is a beast around stoppages.

In for a tough day today with Raines following him around the ground.

In for a tough day today with Raines following him around the ground.

And it begins.

Hope he enjoyed his first 12 games. They'll be the last ones he plays for the next decade without a tag.

Spent a bit of time up forward too. Not a bad bloke to rest up forward with his height.

Got a welcome to the AFL love tap to the nads behind play today too. Take both as the compliments they are.

How well did he handle it tho? 20 touches and should've snagged a couple of goals. He's an excitement extracting machine.

 

[Moe B]

I don't like him, too hard at it, gets too many contested possies, does to many good things with it and has great leadership qualities... Don't like him!

It was obviously coming and planned for this week. The directive looks to have been to drag his tagger into the f50 where Cripps height will work for him.

He was playing ring a round the Roses early in the game with Murphs tagger too.

I feel for taggers on cripps in the future. I can't think of many match ups that would suit. They're all likely to be undersized.

 

[Navy Cream]

Now hopefully ALL his team mates get around him and smash the suitcase out of the tagger. A la Carlton vs Crowley last year when he nearly cried. Sooky sooky la la.

Is that you Mick

 

[King of Ruin]

GC fell for the trap of wasting a tag on this boy.
Keep the LOLs coming.

You can't tag this kid!

 

[Moe B]

Haha good call...

 

[Blue For Life]

With the players now starting to play with passion and intensity, you would hope with Cripps now an integral part of the midfield and more than holding his own, you would hope that his team mates will stand up and protect him and not let him fend for himself, this is the type of culture we should be building.
