Seemed to me live that Cripps didn’t have a huge impact with his 37 possessions so I was happy with Ross' job on him today.

Yep 37 surprised me, no real impact..

Watch him get 3 brownlow votes though

Agreed I would have had him at about 25 touches. Had minimal impact. Graham was all over him at stoppages from what I could see.

Apparently he had like 21 contested possies but still, didn't seem to do much...

Watched on TV and I thought some of Cripps' inside work was outstanding.

While I am surprised he got 37 touches, I was just as surprised that Prestia got 35.

Cripps is a superstar but jeez it sure does help your numbers when you're allowed to just throw the ball...All Blacks could've used his services last night... :shh

Didn't surprise me. Bloke was all over it and smashed the clearances.
