Cripps scoring this quarter has been average because the game seems to be moving too fast for him to get involved. Melbourne's mids are killing it currently. His first quarter he got more points than he probably should have though.
That's a bit of a concern for me, hmmm. With the shorter quarters, games may be played quicker, so Cripps might find it harder to get into games then he has in the past years?

The game has slowed a little bit now in terms of scoring, so I'm hopeful Cripps is able to find ways to get into the game again. Similar to the way Fyfe came back into it (maybe minus the offensive presence though)

Good point! I am hoping you are right.
If games are played like COL vs RIC, then that should suit Cripps to score well, but if games are played fast like the GEE vs HAW games, then that is a concern for me.

Is it my impression or Cripps has put on quite a bit of weight?

In hindsight should have given Bennell a week to scope him out, or at the very least left him on the bench!
Same thoughts went through my mind, but the way he looked pumped after being told he will be playing, I thought he may come out and have a blinder and I didn't want to miss out on that. Hindsight is great, ay.
