Crippa has his mojo back I’m pleased to say. He’s playing like a true inspirational leader. I take back my previous negative sentiments about him. Hopefully he continues to inspire.
Reality always wins in the end.

Re sign our captain now.

What a leader.

Impossible to get another captain who would help the kids develop just by his inspirational acts and overall professionalism that you get from this bloke.

Our kids are showing so much talent so early  in their career and no one better to learn from but this inspirational captain.

He wont play games like he has in the last month all the time and whether he is there or not when we truely challenge next doesnt matter - this great man has done everything he can for us has given us the best highlights in what has been a generally unsuccessful period but he must play out his days with us.

Honour this bloke for what he has done for us show with an extension - must finish his amazing career with us.

Amazing what happens when its not all left to him and he is surrounded by hard tackling fleet footed young players that are providing raw energy and sped - the bloke brownlow odds are coming in each week.
100% agree.

The young ones love him too, they were all over him at the end of the game, Jagga did his big cuddle again, Billy and Flynn seem
To always be around him.

And best of all after some
Of the crap he cops, he has never once become a bitter ant about it. Absolutely love him.
And an extension now to finish his career with us would be sweet news.

Can I say too its bloody fantastic
To see some
True dumping tackles being laid by some
Of our team - Talor Im looking at you! For too long we dont make the opposition pay with solid hits but Talor a few times last night I saw absolutely bury his opponent.
Love it!

Love the attitude and effort Taylor brings but felt he was lucky to hold his spot after the Port game because he is bit of an "almost" player at this early stage in his career.  I don't know if it's his speed over a couple of yards that allows him to "almost" make the tackle, the kind of tackle a player with less intent wouldnt get anywhere near.  The bottom line is that his effort translates to pressure on the defenders and hopefully as he develops he can add a bit of scoreboard pressure as well.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

He's from Koroit, Irish settled spud growing country. Gotta be tough to play in those leagues in the South West, but decent honest friendly people when you meet them at the local. If you ever get a chance go to the Woolsthorp hotel.

I thought all of our kids are showing good signs in either firsts or reserves. Made me wonder why Austin and Agresta got the flick?
