Unfortunately Krak was bumped as he kicked it and landed awkwardly on his ankle, but looked very much low end of the scale as after hopping around on his ankle for a bit came straight off, but had stopped limping by the time he got to the boundary.

H.Sun reporting Knee injury.

Krakouer made a surprise return with Collinwood's VFL side against Geelong at Simmonds Stadium this morning, but limped from the field after gathering four touches.

The 29-year-old, who was given a month's leave from Collingwood for personal reasons on February 10, is currently having scans to determine the extent of the injury.

And from Glenn McFarlane on twitter

There are fears it could be serious. Currently getting scans and will know more soon. Details to follow.
 
I'll be surprised if it's serious though I didn't quite see the mechanism of injury, it did look like his ankle but there you go.

As I say, he ended up jogging off the ground without a limp, so we'll see.

'found some chocolate' ? god i hope it aint been there all summer :eek:

**

have just read the online chat and of interest was the chat from deidre mooney, caolan's mum. we should get her onto BF and get tales of his childhood in tropical ireland. shaes dad & im assuming lachlan keefes mum were there too.
 
Did you end up taking the train down?

Nah we drove.

That comment was from TD on my computer about his train from Sth Yarra to get home again.

Was so hot after parking in the sun, that the aircon was powerless to help on the trip back!

The Irish boys were impressive.

Cribbin is pretty tall 190 cms, Manson's Haircut was chatting with him after the game and I didn't realise he's so tall.

He got better as the game went on and did some good stuff off HBF.

To me, he looked a little Tom Young like, not just cos of the orange hair, but how he competed off HB line.

Mooney...wow, if he learns the game!!

He set up one goal in the first qrtr, he just sped onto the ball, it fair dinckum looked like the ump had blown the whistle and the other guys had stopped, he was so quick.

Another time he did very similar but an oppo player scragged him as Mooney flashed up to go past him ( no free paid) and that may well have been another goal.

At this stage, more just flashes rather than workman-like, but you'd expect that entirely.

Shae played well at FB definitely, only seemed to lose his man once when he was picked out by a perfect pass anyway.
Manson's Haircut, a very astute follower of the game I gotta tell you, pointed out he gets dragged under the ball a bit too much, and may be vulnerable if his opponent doubles back onto the ball.

I was chatting with Shae after the game, he was happy with his game, but a ruckman /forward is his first choice.

Lovely guy ... I mentioned he'd come along way since his audition tapes, he was laughing at them in a really good natured way!

Great day all in all, glad to gain vengeance for the GF loss.

Well maybe not quite, but good day nonetheless :)
( as long as Krak's OK)
 
Had My Sleep and Little Right Hand Action;)

Well was a Great Finish to the Game where Croft Knocked a Kick Through that won us the Game. Won it by 5 Points.

Ugle was BOG for me. Created Some Magic Moments and set up about 3 Goals through his work in the Middle and Kicked 2-3 Goals himself. Reckon if he keeps this up could play RD 1 of the AFL Season

Gault moved around Well and Competed well, Put in Plenty 2nd or 3rd Efforts. Kicked a Good Goal. But does not keep his Feet enough

Mooney showed a Fair Bit. Was Really exciting seeing his Speed and Defensive Pressure.

Shae Mac looked quite good at Full Back and Me and Swoop had a Little Talk to him after the Game and seems a Genuinely Nice Bloke. Also took some Kick In's.

Cribbin really did not do heaps.

Cathel Corr was the Best VFL Player by Taking Strong Contested Marks and Strong Body, Will help the Younger Players we have
