low flying Robbo 979 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 He kicked a goal from just outside the 50. Therefore the kick was at least 55m. I think he's sorted it out. He had tight hamstrings a few weeks ago hence the reason he struggled kicking long. As he was lining up for that kick i said to my uncle that his only downside was he wouldn't be able to make that 50+ distance... Well he proved me wrong (and i was happy about it) 1 Quote
Demon trucker 1,800 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Sign this kid on a boyd deal now lock him away for another 7 years 1 mill + Quote
Demon trucker 1,800 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 It does not matter that he cant kick goals from 40+ meters, he will take heaps of contested marks close to goal, and he will improves his kicking from 40 + Quote
Ethan Tremblay 31,388 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 As he was lining up for that kick i said to my uncle that his only downside was he wouldn't be able to make that 50+ distance... Well he proved me wrong (and i was happy about it) I was sitting next to my old man at the game and said the exact same thing. Haha Quote
What 18,810 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I was sitting next to my old man at the game and said the exact same thing. Haha You can watch the goal here http://www.afl.com.au/video/smart-replay He kicked it right on the 50 metre line and it cleared the fence Was definitely his best strike so far in his young career. 1 Quote
Curry & Beer 5,444 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 You can watch the goal here http://www.afl.com.au/video/smart-replay He kicked it right on the 50 metre line and it cleared the fence Was definitely his best strike so far in his young career. It's the second of our goals Lands about 5 rows behind the fence No problems folks Quote
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I also think that his kicking penetration drops late in games as he gets tired He had another shot from around 50m later in the game and it wasn't quite as good He obviously is still working on his fitness, and with this improving so will his kicking. We often see skills drop in young players as the game and the season wears on. 4 Quote

SaberFang 7,151 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Might come down to dees v carlton Viney to Cripps will be the showdown of the century. And by showdown, I mean Viney burying Cripps' head into the turf for 120 minutes. 8 Quote

Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Jesse simply has to win the rising star. Going to finish with 40 goals and number 1 in the comp in contested marks! Cripps should not even be in the conversation 3 Quote

Cripps should not even be in the conversation Cripps should be in the conversation, but only to say: “Cripps would win any other year, but Jesse Hogan is a once in a generation forward, so…." 2 Quote

Straight Sets Simon 23,113 Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 How Cripps slipped so far down the draft I will never know. Quote
Henrietta Lumbago 331 Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Yeah, na.Why not? I havent seen a first year midfielder as good as him for a while, and it's not like he can feed off a Gary Ablett like O Meara did in his first ,Cripps had 35 disposals yesterday...
