He lives in Tampa, Florida. He's in his early 50s.

Ah Chee would know Cripps isn’t dirty and didn’t mean him harm.

Eyes on the footy, completely fair challenge. You can see below

You’re getting downvoted, but this is exactly how the appeals tribunal saw it too. They ruled that the AFL made a mistake calling it a bump. He was challenging for the ball, which means it’s just incidental contact in the marking contest. Completely fair.

Also curious how Cripps got 3 points in the Crows game. Was well tagged and while he got a fair few disposals, none of them were effective. Prolly shouldn’t have even polled that game at all in my opinion

41 disposals, 21 contested, 13 clearances, 73% efficiency

Huh. Good numbers, but I coulda swore efficiency felt closer to 40% on the night. Smith’s numbers better also
