Toast CrippsWatch 2019

Article by Bob Murphy about his AA team. Words on Crippa who he has in the centre...obviously.

"Patrick Cripps. (Inhale...) Goddamn this guy is a good footballer. I have come to think of him as the ultimate Frankenstein of four Carlton greats. He’s got the presence and aura of 'Sticks' Kernahan, the size and sneer of John Nicholls, the quiet dignity and class of Bruce Doull and the outrageous genetics of 'Kouta'."
 
Pros: Yesterday’s win converted my girlfriend to be a Carlton supporter

Cons: She may leave me one day for Cripps...

I've got the opposite problem....

Con: My wife couldn't give a stuff about footy

Con: One day I might leave my wife for Cripps...
 
Most players haven't peaked at 24.

Most players don't have the relentless drive to improve that Cripps has.

He's almost certainly going to get better still.

Frightening (for the rest of the afl) and tantalising (for us) thought.
