Toast Welcome to Collingwood - Patrick Karnezis

Welcome Patty K. I have a feeling he will be my favourite Pie within 12 months. Going to a lot of Lions games up here, he was my favourite Lion. Just reading this:

“I grew up in Melbourne a passionate Collingwood supporter, as all my family are. To get not only a new start but a new start with Collingwood is the perfect outcome. I’ve got a challenge in front of me, I know that. But I can’t wait to get started.”

You couldn't ask for more than that. A guys lifelong dream has just been realised. The club see him as unfulfilled, he could yet become anything. Good luck Patty!! Can't wait for NAB Cup (never said that before??!!)
 
This kid will go off at collingwood, a fan all his life and his family massive coll fans... greek too, farrrk, no way those elements arent gonna eventuate into him going far and beyound! Im tipping good things, very good things!! PIES!!!!

Not a guy that i've seen a great deal of to be honest. Do we think that he could project as a Gunston type 3rd tall? He seems to have the attributes as well as some good goal sense from the limited highlights available. Is his set shot any good? Remember, Gunston didn't exactly set the world on fire before joining the Hawks...
 
At this stage I've got fairly modest expectations for Karnezis. I hope that he will at least be as good as Koutafides. (although he has a haircut that is more Ang Christou).

Tele-Karnezis got a bit of a run as a nickname with us early on.

Nup.

I decree that on the Collingwood board his nickname is KINEZOS

GO CHINESE MAN GO!!!!! So any of you guys going to footy next year in the AFL Members usually in Q18, if you hear anyone screaming "KINEZO", it's me.
I see him becoming one of the crowd favourites.

Given the sizeable population of Greek Collingwood supporters, he will be a cult hero quick smart.

He might've lost his powers like Daisy did now that he cut his hair.

You probably have the best development coaches in the league, if they can get Patty motivated you have a hell of a pickup because he oozes talent, just needs to work harder.

Thoughts on Paine? Obviously not going to spearhead a forward line but could he be a role player? Has he ever been tried in defence?

I was sad not to see him given more of a go, the couple of games he played for us in the seniors I thought he looked ok but I think others saying that VFL wise he was lagging a bit. Who knows he might get more of a go up Brisbane way. No one from the pies would wish him anything other than the best of luck.

I'm really saod to see Paine go.

The thing I liked most about him is that he consistently hits the scoreboard, even on his "bad" days. Which is what you want. I think if he hardens up (not bulks up, but axctually gets physically "harder") he could definitely lead a forward line. But I may be in the minority.

Apparently can play defence too.
