I could see Malthouse wanting Cripps ....IMO his skills dont match up with pick 13 and like I said previously I see him as another Tom Bell type that really should be taken at 39/51 and that I would prefer a more skillful player at 13.
Pratty's man Jansen will probably be there at 51 and if I wanted the raw big bodied mid then I would be using that later pick to get him....
and i also found this...

I rate Cripps and i brought his name up a well before the buzz got started about the type of player we needed. I dismissed all chances of getting him as there were plenty rated ahead of him. He was rated in the pick 15-30 range. However, i was unaware that he was not in top nick at draft camp. My interests in him are increasing again as i think we need his type to compliment the players we have...and he'd be an upgrade on the likes of Bell/Robinson in terms of footy smarts.
IF we were to get our big bodied mid with our first pick, it opens up the door dramtically with who we can take from there. There will be plenty of tall KPPs available at our next 2 picks. Whether that is someone wanting a second chance Tippett/Thorpe or a kid with potential Fort/Hourigan/Gardiner/Marsh/Brown.
Not long to go now...
Your witness.
