So is Jack Crisp an A grader yet? No. Lets review in 2018
Yep, nailed it nicely there.

absolutely true!

That's only if you want to use hindsight!

Also there's a few too many elites in there. I think you might be talking about the one perfect player, certainly an elite player, not just an A-grader. In 2010 we were seen as having 7-8 A-graders. My question is, has Crisp's 2015 season been of an A-grade calibre? I say it has.

Good points but is he better than the following B graders:

1. Liam Shiels
2. Bernie Vince
3. Lachie Hunter
4. Jack Newnes
5. Tom Lynch (Crows)
6. Dean Rampe
7. Zach Merrett
8. Dayne Zorko???

Averaging under 70% effective disposals and close to 3 clangers a match.
That is not A grade material.
But you know better.
Sorry, but without proper context, effective disposals is probably the most useless stat in evaluating a player. Did you know that Frost was 4th best in the league this year with 87.3%? Must be an elite kick.

Also, Dangerfield's disposal was at 67% and 3.4 clangers compared to Crisp's 69% and 2.7 clangers. A player's role heavily dictates these numbers and there is no magical kicking efficiency barrier for A grade status. By the eye test I would say that Crisp's kicking was good this season, both finishing for goal well and hitting forward targets.

You might need to apply some cream to that burn!!!

Has the potential of being an A Grader but has a long way to go. I am very pleased and impressed by his efforts in 2015 and he has exceeded my expectation but one good season is a starting point.

So what exciting things did some of our players get up to during the break?

Jack Crisp posts Instagram video of him riding Segway-like device in boxers.

Must've been a slow news day when they trawled through instagram to write a story like that.

Good to hear - with security and a great income, he should be a happy boy which hopefully will flow on to his footy.
