Parkin had Kouta as the best player in a contested situation he's ever seen and he coached both Diesel and Kouta. Diesel had superior vision and ability to get the ball to where he wanted it.
Kouta had something like 10 marks in a quarter once, Cripps won't match Kouta's aerial abilities. Who was quite a strong Mark, except for the occasional double grabber.
Na, in an "At his best" type comment maybe. But Diesel did for ten years consistently what Kouta managed for just a couple of seasons!
Cripps already looks to me like he is going to be Mr Consistency.
