Player Watch Jack Crisp

If the club could not use his image for their team selection article that would be great.

My heart sank.

Mine too! It was saying one change, and had his pic! I thought oh no!

When Jimmy had the streak going it would have taken a coma to keep him out. He played some games where he wasn't far off a coma.

I remember Sam Newman once joking that Jimma had been diagnosed with cancer on Tuesday but was expected to be right by Saturday. Sadly prophetic.

The greatest set of steak knives ever made

Obviously hell-bent on not having a slow start in '25.

He's a fitness freak who looks after himself extremely well. Hence his consecutive game streak.

10 years today since Crisp was the “steak knives” of the Beams trade to Brisbane.

So what you’re saying is to expect a Crisp-like player at pick 50? Sounds good!

How many have Collingwood played in that time?

The same amount as Crispy, he hasn't missed any

If I were crispy, I'd equal Jim stynes and have the next week off. It's a bit like the Bradman record. Some people just deserve the extra accolades

Thanks, people are so helpful here.

I'd keep going and try to make it as high as possible - every game after 244 makes it increasingly unlikely that anyone breaks it - if he gets through the first 8 games of the season, he'll be the holder of one of those records that lasts for a huge amount of time.

Even though it’s like shooting Bambi…. If % game time played records were kept when stynes played his record would not look as impressive.

Crisp is a freak.

I’d do that this time around, but after his next 244 I’d just keep going.

Always shoot Bambi. Venison is delicious.

 

[ZEV]

Not sure on the bolded, as in that era Jim would have regularly played 100% game time when fully fit - it was pre-rotations off the bench. I reckon Jim's average game time would be higher.

But do agree that Jimmy played games when he shouldn't have. And that Crisp just always looks like he's running really powerfully. He's a cyborg. It's amazing that it's a powerful runner that is doing this - you'd think that the Pendles Sidey type would have been heaps more likely.

What I was delicately trying to say was the bolded. It seemed at time it was more about Jimmy than the team.

Always shoot Bambi. Venison is delicious.

Its the shots Zev rejects, that makes Zev's ven the best

 

[Fat Jesus]

Dunno, Stynes was a superstar in my eyes.
On and off the field.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

I’d do that this time around, but after his next 244 I’d just keep going.

Crispy’s just lucky that Malthouse coached, otherwise Tarks would be sitting at around 470 straight by now.
