3AW is the only source at this stage so hopefully this is a false one. I can only hope it is not true. He is one of my favourites and I think adds so much to the side when he is up and about.

Please no. This would rip our season to shreds.

Yeah no worries Krak. Give you another opportunity at AFL and fix up your ACL, walk away. Cool.

(This is just heat of the moment getting to me I think, I hope whatever his personal issue that requires his attention isn't too bad)

 

[mattys123]

It was a comment in the lead up to the Saints/Eagles game on 3AW, I only caught the end of it (and didn't recognise the voice saying it) but they said he had walked out and gone home to WA.

I hope it's not true, I'll leave it at that and see how it develops.

It really is just a loose rumour at this stage so it's probably wise to hold back until there is a comment from the club on the issue.

Didn't Luke say in the chat (or a coach I can't remember) but someone said Krak was ill so the coaches decided to leave him out of his afl/VFL duties. First thing I thought of when I read that though was that he was having personal problems again.

Best not to speculate too much yet unless something more than a rumour on a radio show comes out - remember, the ABC station were running with Neeld had been sacked, so they blurt whatever they can out to try and get ahead of rivals when it's not necessarily finalised/true.

You're right. I get fired up too quick for my own good.

 

[Optimax]

Not even sure why it's posted seeing as it was a hot heard rumour from a source No one can confirm.

Not even on 3aw twitter feed yet

 

[Green Eggs]

Hope this isn't legit. Krak is amazing when he is on song. I just hope whatever his problems are that they get resolved, seems like a top bloke.

 

[FIGJAM]

I've seen this exact same rumour from the same shithouse radio station about 5 times this year.

 

[KJpie]

Hard to get a grip on this one, we can only hope it's not true but it would not surprise.
He would have missed Dick and Leon, he almost went home last year, the ACL in 2012, the fitness issues last year and again this year, homesick and possibly missing family after Dad was there for the Geelong game. On top of that there has been the racist allegations towards both Pres and supporters.
Harry made it clear how he felt, yet I have not heard squidley's in relation to Krak's thoughts.
Could be none of the above or it may be a culmination of factors if indeed this is true??

 

[dayna36]

stay tuned..it seemed strange he was listed as ill yesterday BUT just a rumour at this stage BUT bloody hell if it involves Collingwood they will report any rubbish

 

[KJpie]

The other confusing issue if anyone can shed some light; was that he was omitted and then withdrawn from the VFL due to illness (yes may have been a late bout). We often use "illness" to disguise a players injury, may have been appropriate to use illness when being omitted from the senior squad?

 

[TradeDraft]

IF True then he might as well Retire and stay in WA

 

[Pera]

Really hope not.

 

[KJpie]

IF True then he might as well Retire and stay in WA

If his heart is no longer set on playing in Melbourne then I feel you are right.

I think it has not been that since Leon Left

 

[blaze036]

Won't make any rash statements until confirmed/denied

 

[Yidaki]

Wow. I'm shocked! Hopefully it's just a nasty rumour and that's it.

 

[TradeDraft]

Won't make any rash statements until confirmed/denied

That why I said in my post IF

Or he is suffering from a very severe cold

The Club can Lie over things like this

I don't think they would lie about something like this Dave, what would be the point?
