Pretty sure I heard Raponi saying that WP have already paid SD the transfer fee and that there wasn't much else that WP could do about it.

Swandog, feel free to claim him as your own if it makes you feel any better but the fact is he is a local SF product.

Leedy, I think you missed out the word 'was' mate....talk about having a 'claytons' career at WP

History certainly wont judge him as a South player, its like Gilly started his cricket at NSW, but is a West Aussie cricket great, not an NSW great

Ahaha you can allocate him number 100 mate because by the time he ever pulls on a boot if ever for WP he will need that size probably

I guess history will judge Kraks as a 100 plus game player for the Richmond footy club then .....especially since the AFL is a stronger comp than the WAFL....ones achievements are usually remembered more at that higher level of the excellence spectrum I guess......

fitting though Kraks will be remembered for his footy games as a Tiger, considering his Dad was a Tigers product, when the WAFL was on an equal par, in terms of excellence, with the VFL(AFL) comp.

So three cheers for Kraks the former Tigers champ......as for the number 100 Swandog....probably the age Kraks will be when he makes his debut for the WPFC, or when Leedy will see him wearing the famous red/blue!

You know full well what Kraks will be remembered for most by freeze ..it was right here in the WAFL!! (And no it wasnt that amazing training session of his at the Arena mate)!!

Considering there are a shed load more Richmond fans and Collingwood fans then there SD fans, I reckon Kraks will be remembered more for his AFL feats than his WAFL feats........kinda like comparing how many times Federer won at Wimbledon against how many times he won in the Swiss capital of Basle BH.....most folk will remember the fella for his Wimbledon achievements rather than his Basle achievements.......which apparently are the same in number.........

Yeah us die hard fans of the WAFL, especially the SD fans will remember that ex SF product single handedly winning SD first flag in 20 years, but realistically the fella did play over 100 games for the Richmond footy club.....which in the grand scheme of things was a shed load more than what he played for at Swans......also in front of crowds of much lesser numbers during his WAFL years compared to his AFL days.........TBH 2 or 3 Riichmond matches at the MCG would easily out number all those WAFL games folk saw Kraks wearing the SDFC jumper surely!

I know I will remember him as my all time favourite West Perth player.

Now let me see we won the GF by one point and Coniglio kicked 4 goals. Apparently his efforts according to Freezi were inconsequential; but that would mean we would lose by 23 points.
