Ken Hinkley

I'm glad Cripps had the second half that he did.

Everyone has their own view of these things.

But the conversation was far too casual around a truly great player over a long period of time.

And I remember the last time we had this conversation that he was finished, he went out and won a Brownlow the next year.

You have to be... I'm...

I know we all see it our own way.

The idea of just discarding him because he's got no value, you have to be able to get Patrick Cripps to work.

That's the job of the coach.

It'll be the job of the next coach.

It won't be to get rid of him.

It'll be, right, how do we make this piece work?

He still dominates their clearances.

Every other team would kill for a player who consistently gets the clearances that he does, and then it's the job of the rest of the chemistry, isn't it?

Yeah, it's a really interesting discussion.

Kane, Liberatore is three years older than him.

And I would argue that Liber's two best seasons have been in his past three years.

Isn't he that player?

Kenny and Kane are up and going.

We'll get Tom to bring us up to speed on the fallout from last night, and we'll talk the Brisbane Lions side of the equation as well.

The Friday wrap for Brant.
