I feel ripped off, even though I predicted it. Campo should have won it back in 1995. Cripps should have won it this time. Not happy, but not surprised. Let's hope it can motivate Cripps, liked it did Campo, to push and rub it in their collective faces.
Live Long and Prosper!

Exactly.  No surprise at all.

Anyway not fussed.  We have a 10 yr player who is a gun.

No big deal
We know who we'd rather have.

I'd like both of them Lods, Hogan is a jet.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

The AFL wants a return on their 'investment'.
Having a Rising Star winner from a team they re bankrolling gives them that.

I can accept Hogan winning, what I can't accept is that based on their respective seasons how one-sided the vote was.

9 out of 10 vote for Hogan in a contest the AFL touted as possibly a draw. Look at the pre-vote odds! Cripps $2.30 - Hogan $1.60 the next closest was $51

Something is clearly crook, if I was a bookmaker I'd be asking some very, very hard questions of the authorities right now!

Another indicator is Brownlow betting, Cripps is averaging 1000:1 but Hogan is not even listed on most sites. That's what the punters think of it!

So KB is the only one that gave Cripps top votes  :Smile
