Fair enough then.

Fraser spoke about how brutal Jaksch was in the air and how well he is competing. Might be worth giving him a shot.

Agree however it must be made clear to him that anything less than a "brutal" 4 qtrs effort will result in him back in the 2s quicker than he came into the 1's.

I dont rate these cheating fecks just yet and I have not seen anything diabolical from our mob to suggest we are no chance. I would love nothing more than to burst their bubble.
Blues by 12 pts

Didn't you pencil in the first 2 games as wins too? Or am i thinking of someone else?!

He's won one game from his last 14 (not including 0-3 in the preseason!) so i'm not surprised losing is getting to him.

Think he was 5-zip at Hawthorn and the job looked easy, rebuilds though give you a few years grace and the media/supporters
on the whole seem more understanding than in previous years, maybe the Mathouse experience wasnt all bad and was an educating
experience for those expecting miracles...

Can't Cripps wear a helmet that has padding along the chin strap as protection/precaution.
But I suppose we have to weigh up what is this game worth?
A shot at the finals?
Will we go backwards if we lose?
Will Crippa be worse off if he plays?
...Etc
