Give him 2 more games in the VFL and bring him against WCE. Krak was one of our best players in last years GF, he also kicked three goals. Very excited about the posibility of him playing for us in the finals.

imagine being 4-5 goals down in a must win final, and boom, krak gets subbed into the match and become a match winner, thats what i think he can do, he is a matchwinner

Anyone think that if krak gets through this week vfl game unscathed, he may be sub against the Roos next week.
As big kev would say, "im excited"

Krakouer needs a run of games in the VFL for match fitness, so to bring him in as a sub would deny him an opportunity to develop match fitness. However, using him as a starting player then subbing him off when tired may be more beneficial. Either way, I agree that the sooner he plays for the AFL team the better off the team will be.

When the games over, the Sub goes through a rigorous workout session while the rest of the team are recovering to mimic him playing a whole game. So those who say the sub wont get as much of a run in his legs are wrong, the fitness staff (butters) make sure the sub gets the same as the others

Well, that's ONE difference for the positive between 2012 and 2011.
This time of the season is when we started LOSING players, not getting them back with the chance of even getting back 2 knee recos.
Good sign? Maybe? Possibly? Guys? Anyone?

Bit of a flip of the coin Ed. Dids looks a near certainty and Johnno is looking good, with Krak showing enough to give hopes of a super sub or fist half subbed off scenario for the big dance.
Bring him back for the West Coast game (It will also take away the attention off Swan). It is the pefect match for him, family and friends will be there in Perth and our top 4 ambitions on the line.
Don't underestimate the effect 2-3 players can make in a team, especially the likes of Johnson, Didak and Krak. They are 3 A-grade players whilst they are replacing average players, it gives me a ray of hope that our season might be heading somewhere!

On The Footy Show last night, Luke Ball said that Krakouer was "very close" to being selected this week. If it wasn't interstate then I think he would probably be playing this week. Look like we'll have the Krak attack back next week!
Macaffer wasn't named in the VFL side this week. You'd think his chances of returning are finished now with the last VFL game for the season being played this weekend, and the fact that we are close to the finals.
And it's awesome to see Johnno back again! His return will help us for sure!

RELEASE THE CRACKERRRRRRRRR!!!!!
Oh wait, wrong one.
27 possessions in the VFL from Krakouer today! I think it's time to say welcome back, Krak! I think he'll play next week, most likely as the sub.
Looking forward to seeing his silky skills again. What an amazing comeback!

Nah, he'll get a whole game next week, but he'll be the sub for week one of the finals.
I like the cut of your jib. I'd love to see a key player being sub next week....maybe Heater or Daisy.
Just announced on the Collingwood Twitter:
I'm excited...in my pants!
