How do you know he’s better? His averages... which are nothing special btw.

He does play in a premiership team as a Forward

Compared to players in a bottom 4 team

Compare the two midfields and HB lines to see who might get a little better service.

I think Kennedy & Darling get the service.

Cripps seems a good runner to me who gets on a few out the back through hard forward running and does a bit of link up work as well.

Is a very good kick for goal.

Is a good AFL footballer, good solid B grade player who could nudge 200 games.

IMHO Cripps isn't an important link.
If he's injured or suspended, they just replace him.

Their game plan, and Kennedy and Darling, suits him, and he adds an extra dimension to their Fwd line
but not a crucial one- he just provides another option as a crumber.

He's ok as a B Grader, he's no Daicos or anything.

He sure as s*** is a better small forward than a mid.

He was actually drafted as a HB

Started on the Wing At Sandy and struggled in traffic.

Ended up playing as a small forward, his trick is to run his opponent up the ground and turn him round on the way back to goal.

I think it is pretty clear who is still a sook and a deadshit and it’s not Jamie Cripps.

4th in B & F in a premiership team.

I’ll take him in front of our small forward recruiting, we gave a 3 year deal to an overweight one dimensional Melbourne fringe player who has little endurance and no upside.

Cripps is better than Parker, Lonie & Kent who were all in our starting 22 this year.
Spot on.

Hilarious how some are so delusional because they feel so scorned just by a player leaving the club.

Or because they kicked a player before playing a game for not having a photo.

The latter much more laughable.

And you’re right

You don’t post too many facts

I agree, they should stop doing it.

On the other hand, if it’s amusing to you, they should keep doing it.
