You're Bont prediction was particularly pertinent
Haha yeah I finally got one close. I did have a gut feeling about our chances though.

Cripps is a top tier talent, no doubt, but the press fawn over him, to the discounting of Marcus' output.

Cripps is a more consistent player, Bont is a more skilful and classy player.
Both elite. Both on par.

Both are tremendous players and both are elite but what sets them apart for me is Bontempelli is a proven match winner. The same can't really be said about Cripps. And The Bont also hits the scoreboard more often.

Re: WB Game Day V Port Adelaide R15 2019
The thing that bugs me about Cripps vs Bont is how the media keeps on acting like Bontempelli is an outside silk while Cripps is the inside bull. While yes Cripps is better on the inside, Bont is still silky enough to burst out of packs or get the ball free while also being deadly on the outside and able to hit the scoreboards albeit not as often as we'd like.

Was it Bevo or Ken that robbed Marcus of a vote.

The 2 coaches saw things a little differently:
Bont 5 + 4
Macrae 3 + 5
Dunkley 4 + 1
Schache 0 + 3
Lycett 2 + 0
Crozier 0 + 2
Hartlett 1 + 0
*Can't tell which way around Lycett/Crozier votes were done.
