all 4 are superstars & Bont is probably my fave player, but Clarry is 2nd.
simply a joy to watch all 4 play

I don't think it's changed for a while,
The best 3 are Petracca Oliver and Bont, with Macrae a step below, but still a very good player.

Bont was hobbling around most of last night.

He was quiet fdor the first half and then seemed to get a knock and look off the pace late
 
When do we start adding Cripps/Walsh to the convo?
Probably when Cipps and Walsh both have a good season together.

And leading their team to at least a top half of the ladder position would help

At this stage Cripps/Walsh wouldn't even be the top 4/5 proven combos at this stage

Fair! Look forward to this changing and we'll come back to this Convo.

Considering I consider Petracca and Oliver as two of the best midfielders that ever graced our game, if Cripps and Walsh can be spoken about in the same vein, I would be in dreamland!

Look tbf Cripps/Walsh could be no 1 within 24 months

But there is still Boak/Wines, Danger/Selwood & Merrett/Parish ahead of them in terms of a duos combined season performance

Cripps/Walsh are guns, but haven't both yet had an elite season together at the same time

Miller/Rowell are another combo on the cusp

This post was before the season yeah?

So 100% at that stage they were a better pairing

And tbf Walsh has just stat padded this year except for last night v a glorified TAC cup standard team

He had a very good game vs Port too with Cripps out. Think he's been adjusting to having the midfield centred around working for Cripps rather than himself. Definitely hasn't been at his best so far but he always works into the seasons so im sure he'll find his damaging best soon. Even still, if you're out of form and putting out numbers like he is I'll still happily take it

Parish wtf? I'd rather a crippled Cripps and a Syndesmosis-recovering Walsh than that Essendon pair of midget anyday.

Parish and Merrett are the least damaging "star" pair there is.

Also still funny that old-mate Stinger wants to base his online persona around denigrating anything Bulldogs. We all have our own interests, I suppose.
