Well, it makes our team strategy for '25 pretty simple - when we play Collingwood we put everybody on Daicos, when we play Carlton all pile on Cripps!     :thumbsup

Sooo Ben Lennon at pick 12 or Patrick Cripps at 13.  I mean they were 21 stellar games we got out of him. Sheesh

I wonder what our midfield would have been like the last two year with him in it.  Maybe he would have lost the hunger but maybe we would have made finals

Yes we'd be treading water mid table with a bunch of crap draft picks and bottoming out with Cripps retired/over the hill just as Tassie are coming in... :shh

We most likely would have lost him to WA or one of our other stars trying to fit everyone under the cap. Pretty sure we were maxed out during our dynasty can’t see how you could fit Cripps in there even with the good old front end/back end contract technique.

Highly doubt we would have gone after Taranto & Hopper if we had Cripps......certainly not both of them... :shh

Wouldn’t have even gotten to that point is what I’m saying. No way your fitting Rance, Cotch, Dusty, Jack, Lynch and Cripps under the cap.

Probably but Rance was gone by 2020, Cripps wasn't at peak value until 2021, Cotchin was on less by then as was Jack, covid pay cuts, back ended contracts, players accepting less because we're winning flags which increases their off -field earning potential....where there's a will there's a way... :shh

Saw on 360 that Dillons wife was asked her tip before the count, she said Bont 'but I've been told he's not in the mix'  :o

If 2017 Dusty had played this year it sounds like he would have got about 50-60 votes.

FMD Bont was ripped.

45 votes is such a joke it's disgusting.
