Deserving winner.
Can't agree at all. Should not even have been eligible. Absolute disgrace that he had the suspension overturned.

Different rules for different players in this league. Marlion would have copped a suspension for the entire 2023 season if he did that.

Walked out of the room as soon as he was announced the winner and will be boycotting any media reporting of the event.

2013 draft, Lennon pick 12, Cripps pick 13.

Cripps isn't as vibrant as Ben.

Cripps is a champion of the game. Great player. 10 times the player of Neale and Miller.

Umps finally catch up to Dions quality. Best performance in the Brownlow. Got 19 votes, his previous 5 years with the club he polled a collective 21 votes.

Should never have been suspended in the first place. It's one thing I think is flawed now. Originally fairest was for serious incidents. Now it's like a raffle, players getting suspended for BS things.

Deserved it, is better and more influential than Neale.

Don't necessarily disagree but the fact remains he should have been ineligible this year. It is an absolute joke that he had that suspension overturned.

Plus he throws the ball more than he handballs.

R23 Cripps absolutely clear BOG. No issue. If it wasn't for his injuries he'd have a Brownlow already for sure.

He has carried that team all his career. Thoroughly deserved.

Throws the ball? We talking about Cripps or Selwood?
