The thing with Cripps is that he's "grown" as a player during the season.
He's gone from being Judd's understudy to just about the lead role at the club.
With his end of season fresh in our minds we're probably forgetting that at the start of the season he wasn't quite as dominant.
That may go part of the way to explaining his runner-up position in the rising star.
I suspect it will also show up in our B&F and the Brownlow where he will poll better in the back half of the season.
