TOPIC:

I dare say 42 some of Stevie Cogs 4 goals were the back end of Kraks 40 odd possessions on the day......true those 4 goals were important, but how many goals did SD kick that day as a direct result of Kraks dominate display?.......I reckon 42 is one of those nightmare coaches or parents at junior level who only back pat the guy who kicks the goal after each play......stuff the kids who did all the hard work to get the ball down there in the first place!

Kraks performaces throughout 2010 and in the GF were more important in terms of contribution compared to those of Stevie C that year.....you know it 42, I know it and everyone else knows it.......the boy from the Richmond Footy club did himself proud that day........without him in 2010 SD wouldn't of even made GF I reckon.......any way Chad Jones absence on GF day was just as huge I reckon......especially since his goals per game conversion that year was up over the 4 goals a game mark......as you said 42 Cogs 4 goals were important as were Jones missing 4 goals too!

Anyway if the fella had any inkling of love or loyalty to the SDFC he would of suited up for you boys for a pittiance, like what Dalziell is doing for EF.......no Kraks chased the dollar instead......the guy could do the decent thing and at least pay SD their due transfer fee on WP behalf.......geez surely after 100 games at Richmond and two seasons with Collingwood PLUS now a lucrative career in the mining industry......surely 15-30k wouldn't be too much to ask for eh 42?

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!

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.

Go easy on ol freeze S42 ..after all you can get a bit delusional after your team comes up empty handed now into 3 decades and a previous century ago!!

Naagh don't go easy on us BH East Freo have been shite since 1998, just as SD were between 1991 and 2009 and I guess from the mid 60's to the early 80's and yeah from the early 30's to the mid 60's. We all have our crosses to bare but geez SDFC have definitelyo set the bench mark for. medocrity ON and OFF the footy field within the WAFL compared to most clubs don't you think? LMFAO big time!

Freezin wrote: 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!

Your missing the point boys, he now belongs to us, when Subi pay big bucks for him next season, we will get our money back at worst !

Ha ha Leedy, "owning" Kraks is like owning a 12 yr racehourse mate.......a racehourse that has a buggered fetlock and more interested in spending his days lazing in his paddock getting fat!

Anyway word on the street is that you subbed Raponi the Kraks transfer fee, so technically YOU own Kraks, thus I can see why you are so keen for Subi to enter the equation next year....... ........perhaps a way you make a bit of return out of your "investment", you can rent out Kraks to your good mate Swandog every weekend, no doubt 42 and BH may be interested in this as well!........could be a good little money spinner for you.......hell I might go out and buy myself a knackered racehourse now!

Freeze,

Kraks transfer fee will be well spent my mate ! Nudge,nudge, wink,wink.

All is good Leedy my friend. The 12 point universe is going to be very kind to us hey. It polishes the squad off very nicely.

Apparently AK will be still be performing some zone work with West Perth (when his employment allows) and Monaghan has stated that he will be kept on the list .... so that means 10 to 12 points to be included in the Cardies cap depending on the WAFC ruling of it.

Very nice to chat with Kraks tonight. Looks fit and raring to go. He said he will spot on in two weeks.
