Cripps makes Rance look stupid!!

Not hard. He is stupid. Still can play a bit.

 

[footyfan1978]

I don’t care what the chance of injury is.
I just cannot ****** believe we would allow our best, most important player to participate in this crap.
Just utter stupidity

Less chance of injury in this than Murphy hurting knee in praccy game the evening before.

Literally the only chance of getting injured was running into a goal post.

Cold Sober, firstly I don't know how or why your replying on the Blues forum.
Secondly, anyone who has Tom Waits as an avatar has my thumbs up any day

Apologies re blues forum,

Had some free tickets so went to the game last night just to watch Fisher and The Gun.

Cripps will win the Brownlow this year, can do it all, FB, FF, CHF, Middle this guy is ELITE and is taller than Jack Riewoldt and probably better than him.

Fisher is going to be a great player for us, is quick, has tricks in stoppages, has the burst of speed, can see him playing on the wing and in the middle and even in the FP.

I watched the first match, honestly it was boring, but footy. I could have kept watch it, but I couldn’t handle the commentary yelling “game changer” every 20 seconds in the last 5 min, so I stopped & watched Keeping up Appearances

If they canned the supergoal, launch zone, game changer, flashing posts, bubbles blowing across the field, etc it actually wouldn’t be too bad a product, in terms of a lighthearted and bruise free exhibition match where you’ve got a selection of the best players in the comp.

I watched last night, and while all that naff stuff drove me crazy, it was kinda cool to see all the players together.

If they continue I hope they make it more like rugby 7s, not extra crazy rules but just a shorter, faster version of the game with less people on the field.

And piss off the rampage, fliers, etc. Maybe go something like SA, WA, Vic Metro, Vic Country (inc tas?), northern (nsw, qld, nt), and indigenous all stars.

Criticism of the comp aside, **** it was good to watch Cripps last night. Fish pretty hand too, but Cripps.... mother of god...

Imagine when Cripps hits his peak over the next three years.

You can feel the shudder go through the rest of the competition at the thought.

As worried as people were for Cripps playing in this Mickey Mouse tournament, his confidence in his own goal kicking ability looked to grow as the night went on. Could be a massive positive for his development.

EFA

Premiership 20. Closer than you think...

Definitively looked much improved. Was super confident and nailing them from pretty much everywhere

 

[Blue Pulse]

Watched bits and pieces, the entertainment came from the players when they were naturally mucking around, the NBA style entrance and forced entertainment was cringe worthy.

Channel surfing, watched 3 different movies, cricket and X games. The talents we pick up as we mature,

Tex Walker as a commentator, wow wee golly gee, makes BT and Lingy sound like sound a class above Dennis Cometti, I hope he never retires.

Is that Thy ?

Is that Thy ?

It's the stage of my life I am entering and I have embraced it.

 

[90N90S]

We should try the place kick in real games as well, some of our boys can do with a little help kicking for goal.

If he isn’t already Crippa will be the Lebron of the AFL.

But but he is not 'elite'.


Just ask Champion Data.

Fisher extends the Silk Road with every step he takes. Great to watch him dicing it up last night. Some of his kicks to advantage were exceptional.

Who!

 

[CFC18]

The players enjoyed it, I enjoyed it. Don't get the criticism.

Fisher didn't have me convinced in his first season but his trajectory is just insane. Seriously think he'll be our second best mid and a top 30 player in the comp.

 

[GoBlues!]

Got out of it without an injury, tfft!!

Does leather poisoning count as an injury......Crippa on a detox program this week to get rid of it.
