Brownlow Congratulations Patrick Cripps - 2022 Brownlow Medalist 🏅

[RAPPA]

Loved the passion in his words of yearning to play in wins and experience the ultimate success

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Yep the top end talent is there, just need a few more blue collar types around them and improve the polish of our bottom 6-8 players as well.

Perhaps some luck with injuries also....

I say trade high this year.

Go the big names.

Be the destination club like Tigers & Cats.

Lynch & Cameron didn’t just fall into their laps.

He also won Triple M MVP .
No one (except the salty Oompa Loompas) should be surprised Cripps won the brownlow.

Going back over the footage when they announced the winner, Tommy Mitchell's reaction in the background is so bloody wholesome.

Congrats to Crippa. Really happy for him. The guy deserves it, he played ruck after Pitto went down. Probably had one of the best first 8 games you'll see and finished fairly strong too. He'll forever be remembered as a Brownlow medalist now and cemented his place as a legend of the game.

But * me.... a Brownlow medalist, 2 Coleman medalists, a plethora of AA squad members... all we come up with is 9th? That should be the makings of a top 4 team minimum. Hopefully it lights a fire under their arses for next year...

Think Richmond had a similar record in 2012

Congratulations to our great captain. Onya Crippa!

 

[Sheephead]

And he should have been Captain of the AA too. Crippa you are inspirational. I love you too………….as does the flock. I know you’re engaged, but you can have your pick of my ewes. Baaaaaarownlow!!

Great stuff!! My heart was jumping in rd23.
What a humble and touching speech too.
This is worth a look at how Northampton honours its heroes.

Josh Kennedy and Paul Hasleby were among nine Northampton AFL players to be immortalised in metal figurines to mark the town’s significant footy impact.

3 votes in that crows game whoops

I actually thought that was his best game of the year. When a lot of his mates failed to turn up Cripps showed what a true professional he is.

Did he get tipped off to come back early?

 

[lukep_86]

What a player, what a leader and what a man!

Loved everything he said after winning, such a humble bloke who loves his family, his partner, his team mates and playing the game.

Part of me was surprised to hear he was seeing a speech pathologist, but it's clear he wants to do his best in all situations.

 

[Blue Warrior]

What a champion!!!


This young man if keeping with the trajectory he is on with his hard work and team fist attitude could become our best player by the end of his career.


Well-deserved individual accolade now let's take the competition and make it ours from next year and bring home 17,18,19...... GO BLUES!

OMFG, the Lions board is well worth the visit.....sooking it up big time.

One flognut had a $5 bet on Crippa, and when Neale was polling well decided to cash out - for the princely sum of $5 and 11c

 

[jezzajay]

I didn’t think I could love this guy more than I did…and then tonight happened!!
Proud!!
