Presumably, Cripps' jaw has only a hairline fracture. Maybe a plate can be inserted to keep it secure?

Even if it's the slightest depression, do we really risk Patrick Cripps against the Cheating Scum who are mentored and ingrained by a Kevin Sheedy led culture to hate Carlton?

Yes, if you pay close attention, you should see that Cripps' delivery by foot is very effective. Kicking for goal is not a strength yet.

A pity that we tagged an over the hill Lewis and not Nathan Jones, although we probably don't have anyone capable of tagging Jones.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Due to his history of injuries and lack of ps, I'd guess he's still got to build his tank.
If he is selective like you say. I hope he selects carefully then make his opponent look like he's standing still

I don't think that's an issue. Cripps has shown that he can put the moves on to elude opponents and create time and space for an effective delivery.
I really don't get why some so-called supporters have to find fault with our players. I guess that's what makes them happy ???
