News Coniglio backs Krakouer to fire

[TradeDraft]

Prodigal son Andrew Krakouer is set to make a big impact on his return to the AFL for Collingwood according to his former Swan Districts' team-mate Stephen Coniglio.


The sight of 27-year-old former Tiger Krakouer in a black-and-white jumper may be unusual for AFL fans, but for those watching the WAFL last season, that view of him as he repeatedly notched up 40-possession-plus games was an all-too-familiar one.

Going by Training Reports he just could Fire for us

Fingers crossed.

Bit of a nothing story Dave. A junior player predicting his former teammate will make it when he himself has no idea what it takes means not a lot.

Not disputing that he could be a great pickup though.

Stephen who?

the 16 year old who kicked 4 goals in the recent swan districts grand final, helping swans break their 20 year premiership drought (sound familiar)

will be playing for GWS next year if he doesn't chose cricket

Shame on you.

Hopefully Krak can talk Coniglio into saying he will only play for Collingwood pre draft so we can get him.

Number one draft pick, signed, sealed delivered. Only reason he isn't at GWS like Swallow is because he hasn't finished school like him.

Ya my bad.

I don't follow WAFL, nor have any interest in players not linked to Collingwood and 1-2 from even playing AFL.

Sorry I don't understand.

Conigolio is at GWS? Krak is going to talk him into coming to the Pies?

no he isnt at GWS
he will be the number 1 draft pick this year for GWS, but they offered to get him over there already and start training and playing VFL etc like Swallow did with the Gold Coast, but Coniglio hasn't finished school yet, graduation age in WA is 17, and he has only just turned 17, so still has year 12 to do

there is no link to the pies, only wishful thinking on a few parts

oh and all this is assuming he will chose footy over cricket, as he is a gun cricketer also
