If we gave up papley to get Cripps, we would still have ronke as the small forward. We actually have a surplus of small forwards. Ronke, paps, Menzel, Heywood, etc.

Cripps has played 10yrs of footy in 5yrs
I don’t think his bashed up body is who we are after despite him being the player that so many teams would jump at
There is better value
Another fast outside player is who we want
Heeney, Hewett, Jones, Mills, Clarke, Rowbottom and Dawson are our inside rotation
But our outside rotation needs to increase in ability ASAP
Clearly no love for Cripps. So if we were to target a "big fish" mid, who do the fellow posters think will be of most benefit to us? Josh Kelly and Whitfield would bring plenty of outside run as would Andrew Gaff. Neither appear attainable unfortunately.
The same people who have "no love for Cripps", probably had no love for Buddy before he became a swan.
There is some magical transformation that happens when the player in question puts on a red and white vest. Quick, can someone photoshop Cripps in a swans top, to get these laggards on board!
