Best in history? He's never even been the best player in the comp over a full season.

Cripps doesn't even average one vote per career game, it's not close

 

[Cleansweep17]

You can't compare the 2 mate. Sorry, Cripps has the runs on the board. Nick will get there perhaps in the next couple of years but until then , he can't be labelled the best in comp

He’s just salty Cripps blew right past Pendlebury and Buckley in the GOAT rankings with his second Brownlow.

 

[Cleansweep17]

Just based on the fact that he's already the best player in the game after only 3 seasons, what more do you want?

I’d probably hold on to that thought until after Daicos proves he’s a better finals player the Gary Rohan.

Speaking of holding onto things hows ya Dusty roof poster going?

What is Cripps averaging since Nick started ? I'll give you a tip - you are correct, it's not even close

Yes what a great career by Cripps, trophy cabinet chock-full of individual awards and he'll enjoy going to all those Brownlow reunions just like Robert Harvey

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Daics has averaged more per game played in the last 2 years than anyone, he's the best

 

[Thrawn]

Daics has averaged more per game played in the last 2 years than anyone, he's the best

But is he the bestest?

 

[Fadge]

I actually rate Martin's Finals series in 2019 very highly - 12 goals from 3 games. Averaged 19.3 possessions and 4 goals per game.

As do I.

Martin's 2019 finals series elevated him from about the 40th best player in the competition that year (AA Squad, 6th in Richmond's Best and Fairest), to a circa top 10 player for the year.

 

[Fadge]

And yet Finals football, despite the short window/timeframe which is one month... is when it truly matters most. Home & Away football is when a Premiership is set up for a team to win, however Finals football is when a team wins Premierships.

Oh well.

Why do we even award medals for performances across the home and away season?

You're suggesting all those games should be completely disregarded and we only award premiership medals, a Gary Ayres Medal, and a Norm Smith Medal?

 

[Fadge]

Best in history? He's never even been the best player in the comp over a full season.

Indeed he has.

2023.

Third best in 2024.

Over the same two seasons:
Cripps circa top 20 in 2023
Second best in 2024 (behind Heeney).

 

[T2B_]

Daics has averaged more per game played in the last 2 years than anyone, he's the best

Strange argument when he hasn't actually won the prize.

Look I like the kid a lot, but some of you Pies fans make it harder and harder.

 

[RCAB]

GAJ didn’t even kick more than 2 goals in a final (and goalless in the whole 2010 finals series) in that 07-10 period meanwhile Dusty kicks a bag of 6 and bags of 4s still having disposals in the mid 20s.

And this opposition talk is nonsense GAJ played against 07 port in the GF and only managed 19 and 1. The NS was there for the taking and he wasn’t good enough.

Many people's memory on this subject is jaded.

Gary Ablett used to get the same treatment that Daicos receives now, as in, criticised for a lot of cheap one-twos. It's quite ironic that you're responding to Fadge, who's a staunch supporter of little Nick, now is trying to glow up Ablett over Martin.

 

[RCAB]

And yet Finals football, despite the short window/timeframe which is one month... is when it truly matters most. Home & Away football is when a Premiership is set up for a team to win, however Finals football is when a team wins Premierships.

It's no point arguing with Dusty Haters. He's done a number on them, and they just can't grasp that he brought Ninthmond, a joke of the AFL, almost single handedly to three premierships, and also did it in three grand finals.

It no other sport would this even be a debate.

Could you imagine telling everyone that world and olympic record holder Usain Bolt, wasn't the fastest man on earth at the 2012 London Olympics because he qualified 8th fastest in first round, and third fastest in the semi-finals?

 

[RCAB]

Ease up. You’ve literally won **** all for a decade nearly

Oh no...a decade... Nearly!

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Strange argument when he hasn't actually won the prize.

Look I like the kid a lot, but some of you Pies fans make it harder and harder.

100% correct though, over the last 2 years he averages more Brownlow votes per game played than anyone else, facts

 

[RCAB]

He just had 31 disposals in his last final. More than Nick has ever had in any final

Now do disposals per premierships....

No actually, do disposals per grand...


No, no, scrap that, disposals per preliminary finals played between Daicos and Cripps.

 

[Worm4]

100% correct though, over the last 2 years he averages more Brownlow votes per game played than anyone else, facts

What about the last 3 years ?

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

One of the most embarrassing episodes in AFL history.

 

[Worm4]

Indeed he has.

2023.

Third best in 2024.

Over the same two seasons:
Cripps circa top 20 in 2023
Second best in 2024 (behind Heeney).

Are you avoiding 2022 for any particular reason ?

 

[Fadge]

Astounding the 2024 Brownlow Medal thread has turn into yet another Martin appreciation thread by the Martin fanbois, in a year the man himself - where he was poised to leap ahead of other greats of the game for total Brownlow votes - polled a solitary vote...
