[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

He was on EON Sports radio this morning.
Qualifier is Sanderson is an idiot

I don't know Sanderson well enough to agree or disagree, but could it not simply be a case of him forgetting about Cripps, or missing a part of the convo where he mentioned something that would keep Cripps out of his list?
The amount of times that I've seen people make a list of players for something then have somebody say 'what about such and such', which is normally followed up by 'crap, how could I forget them'. Or the other day there was a list of players under 22 that Cripps wasn't part of and people were kicking up a stink, but it was something to do with players from academies or something and Cripps didn't qualify.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for a public lynching if somebody said 'what about Cripps?' and he answered with 'nah, don't rate him'.

Just finished watching the Bolton interview for this weeks game.
Gosh he has a genuine, sincere smile every time he talks about Daisy.
Recognises that Daisy offers more to our club than just being a player.

Appealing to a higher power. All hail the great SOS.

Two people stranded for a week on a remote Pacific island have been rescued after signalling for help with a flashlight and an SOS message in the sand.

Appealing to a higher power. All hail the great SOS.

"THANK YOU SO MUCH, WE'D LOST ALL HOPE."

"Clearly you don't want to be here any more, so I'll get you to your preferred destination for a future 2nd round pick a fringe senior player that meets our profile and a swap of first round picks. Should be done by the 2nd week of October."

"BUT IT'S MARCH!"

"Hey I'm good, not a miracle worker; these deals take time."

Robert Walls says time for Patrick Cripps to analyse Greg Williams

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/carlto...to-analyse-greg-williams-20160829-gr3ghq.html

Former Carlton premiership player and coach Robert Walls has urged emerging star Patrick Cripps to analyse what made legendary midfielder Greg Williams so great.
Cripps, last year's best and fairest, is one of the league's best young midfielders and his ability to win the ball on the inside has become a pivotal part of the Blues' game plan.

Walls said on Monday that Cripps would be well advised to dissect how Williams, a dual Brownlow medallist with Sydney and Carlton, went about his business. Williams became one of the greats through his clever and efficient use of handball and ability to hit targets with either foot.

Who's in the running for the Lions job?

JOHN Barker has emerged as the leading candidate for the Brisbane Lions job that was today vacated by Justin Leppitsch.

*wheels Barker out the door*
All yours.

Walls has a point about Patty becoming even more dangerous if he can add elite kicking skills.

But you don't just watch footage of Diesel and suddenly develop sublime dual sided disposal.

What next? I'll grab some old NBA tapes and suddenly I'll be dunking like Dominique Wilkins?

 

[thylacine60]

Nobody dunks like Diesel Wilkins.

I think JB is a nice guy, but I'd be more than happy to see him replaced

Need to set your sights higher. Go for the guy with the 56inch vertical, about a foot higher than Nic Nat

 

[Mr_Plow]

Imagine these guys running through the midfield.

I agree.
Cripps will never be lethal by foot. He is too big (tall) and lacks power through his kicking fir sine reason. Maybe related to him having broken his leg a few years back.
His handball on the other hand is absolutely elite for so eone so young which has helped him end up No1 this season for clearances. Being No1 for hard ball gets obviously helps too. Gun

Might be all that bursting out of packs

Or the three blokes hanging off him

Cripps is a bit floaty with his kick, although i think he adjusts for distance well. Won't ever be a laser boot or hit the super low daisy cutters.

It won't be for lack of trying.
Watch his kicking improve next year.
