Collingwood midfielder Adam Treloar had a first-hand look at Patrick Cripps on Saturday, and believes there's no better player in the competition than the 24-year-old.

Cripps almost willed the Blues over the line with 35 disposals (19 contested), 13 clearances, nine score involvements and seven tackles, and Treloar told AFL360 on Tuesday night, he's unstoppable.

โ€œHe singlehandedly almost got them over the line,โ€ Treloar told Fox Footyโ€™s AFL 360.

โ€œIn my opinion heโ€™s the best player in the competition.

โ€œFor what he does at his size, the way he moves, his strength, the agility, 10 to 15 years ago he wouldโ€™ve been a key forward or playing as a deep forward so to be able to do what he does in the midfield, heโ€™s just a star.

โ€œI think heโ€™s almost untaggable. You canโ€™t tag him, how are you going to tag him? Heโ€™s just going to bully you with his strength.โ€

Cripps is currently the favourite for the Brownlow Medal, and is first in the league for contested possessions (18.9 per game) and centre clearances (4.6).
