Is A.Krakouer worth the risk?

Vrett7 · February 15, 2011, 11:23:11 PM

is krakouer really worth the risk, will he actually play and get a run in the midfield? is collingwoods midfield to strong?

i am equally concened.. is he going to be a lead up fwd, fwd pocket or mid?? i am thinking of saving $ and having callinan instead who u would think will play a similar role?

pies have an abundance of midfielders and forwards. unles he hits his straps i cant see him getting a regular gig

dylsta05 · February 15, 2011, 11:40:30 PM

he will get games, for me you need some risk, back what you think is the right choice

toughy

Had him - but got rid of him. Cheaper options that will get more games methinks.

Do you think they got him to improve there depth? Surely not. You dont recruit someone of his age not to play him. And imo hed be a lot more useful then then davis

there have been a couple of threads voicing the same concerns.
personally, having followed his WAFL season i have no doubt he will be a regular fixture. more than likely filling the role that davis hasn't been able to handle.
Mark my words. Krakouer will rip it up!

If he is named for the first round he'll be a starter in my team

He'll play between 15-22 matches, saw him in the WAFL grand final and he was a gun- 40-odd possys in the grand final and 54 in the regular season (although it was against bottom). Should play plenty of games unless he assaults another person.

it seems that krakouer will be given gametime and there is not doubt he is a gun.. but will he be a good dreamteamer?

Im no sure about no doubt he is a gun, you have to remember he wasnt some great plaer who is coming back e.g cousins , he was also a pretty poor DT player before (almost a spud).

Vrett7 · February 16, 2011, 05:52:05 PM

i say gun, regarding he has some serious potential. but yer i must agree, he could be a serious spud

steven_ora · February 16, 2011, 09:10:53 PM

can you really ignore that potential

Johnnysd · February 16, 2011, 11:07:53 PM

super coach definitely, DT im not so sure anymore...
