Might go Grundy into Cripps then .....I'll just keep an eye on the weather in Tasmania ....if it's raining & windy, that'll be a NO from me
3300 points are still going to be issued, raining & windy or not. Might just be me, but wouldn't raining/windy conditions benefit in and under types whilst hindering talls and outside players? I remember Cripps' 6th career game in Auckland vs the Saints in terrible wet/raining/windy/cold conditions where he was BOG and scored 172 points.

From what I've seen so far, he should have been a top10 pick. Feels like he has it in him to go up another level or two this year. He's living with the Dimma's just like Daniel Rioli did for a few years which will keep him grounded and focused. Well played Tiges.
He was at Dimmas, now at X Clarkes, keeping him grounded

This is true. It's relevant if he's not though, and more relevant if you were counting on a price drop.




You blokes keep talking about the 'Roughead out, Roughead in man(o)euvre'. Pretty sure I pointed out at the time that it ought to be called the RORI. You're welcome.
Are you saying I should trade in RORI Laird so I can trade him out then back in again? :think:

Got Lloyd, Whitfield, Z Williams, B Smith, Hore, Duursma, Clark and Burgess.

Will make a nice solid back 7 and then hopefully Burgess never plays again so I get a loophole option back!
Soild backline .

Crisp is durable AF plays 22 games every year should go 95 Av but can throw in a stinker every now and then.

Best steak knifes trade in the collingwood team .

Go with your gut.

I don't remember it being that wet but being in Wellington it would have been windy

He tore us to shreds that day, first time I realised just what a good player he was.

I'm hoping Atkins gets a rest so I can get Ross's score although he won't get another price increase before I trade him next week.

Was at the game. Was watching this kid rip us a new one and asking 'who the hell is that'.

Check fan footy and it was like 'oh boy'.

Was that the game he announced himself? I don't really remember him before it.

Well, it was his 6th career game so it's fair that you didn't really know who he was beforehand.
