Avoided paying the extra rookie price for Cripps. Looks a good move early but I wouldn't be quick to jump off if you do have him. Another free look before a price rise. Round 1 scores can be so deceiving. Only counts once for a price rise. Round 2 score is far more telling. Counts twice and if it's a 100, will guarantee a price rise of $100k plus. 2 trades are pencilled in for me after round 2 to catch a flyer. Cripps could yet be one of them.
Watching the game the other night he looked really off the pace, although so did Murphy and Gibbs (faded badly). Other than tackling I can't seem him being an offensive threat at all. Looks slow although Brock McLean played a lot of games for them the last few years.
