John Nicholls Medal-2015
#71
Should have been renamed, 'The Patrick Cripps Show.' Gee the young fella was impressive with his acceptance speeches, great memory re thanking everyone. Now to ground him so it doesn't go to his head, though he does seem like a very grounded and level headed kid.

Now for the culling to begin.

Even though he's locked away until the end of 2017, Trigg, Macca and SOS should put a 5 year extension in front on this kid.

Both were crap while Mick was coaching as well MBB.

I said it a while back, just give him the keys to Ikon Park. We have our very own Nat Fyfe so nurture him, look after him, build the team around him.

They got worse. Yarran in particular after Barker dropped him for missing training.

Nice to see some of the names in these awards. It is a pity that we appear to be losing Bell. He has made a significant improvement this year. Sure, his disposal is questionable, but he gets the ball and he works hard.

Congratulations to Patrick Cripps. This one our recruiters got right!
Live Long and Prosper!

Don't be too concerned about Bell leaving, it is a Greg Denham story  Wink

It is a good mix of players who were recognised last night, and a bit of a changing of the guard.  I wonder how many will feature again next season.
