Diesel won two Brownlows and had a third stolen off him by a jealous umpire......build Cripps up because he is a star in the making for sure but Crawford needs to get some perspective....
But Cripps has aspects to his game Diesel didn't ie he is an enforcer, he can bust packs open and he is strong overhead. Cripps will be at least the equal of Diesel IMO, he will also be one of the best we've seen.
Ignorance is bliss.
ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!
