well done krak. you do what you want. dw about all the media.
if krak had kicked that goal when he got the ball from the wing and kicked that goal (went for a point) it would of been goal of the year. imagine the celebration he would of done then. |

What the hell is wrong with a bit of solidarity with your brothers on the inside? Geez I wish Krak every bit of luck as he tries to rebuild his life. As
an earlier poster wrote "There but for the grace of God go I" |

Shit no
Thats the problem, we have to many crap journos reporting rubbish like this.
Become one, write decent articles that are devoid of shock bias and you will quickly excel.

Why is it now an "outrage"? |
Goddard did it for his brother in prison a few years back, they mentioned it during the game. This is getting a joke that Krakouer does it and now there's an issue. |
Yep. To their credit, no-one made an issue of it on TV. Just mentioned that Goddard did the same thing in an earlier season.
There's no issue. Whether Krakouer made this gesture for a mate or relative who's still in jail, or whether it was about where he's come from, I don't see a problem. The media are happy to talk up the "great story" of Krak going from jail to AFL every 5 minutes, but he chooses to reference it, and now it's offensive? Yet more manufactured outrage, this really is getting tiresome.

Did you see just after he had kicked a couple, deep in congestion he stripped the ball away from a blues player that blair I think got on he end of for a goal. His hads were so quick.
As I keep saying, he only has to play his part. does not need to dominate.
Match Fittness and confidence will come and who knows.

The Krakour story is inspirational and im proud as bloody punch to see him play for Collingwood. He is a star within the indigenous community this is also a great PR story for Collingwood. Anyone who puts this bloke down can well and truly get stuffed. |
Good on you Joffa. I couldn't agree more. |

True. If I had a daughter I'd rather she become a professional escort than a journalist. Actually, she'd make a damn sight more money too.  |

Alan Jones and Andrew Bolt are very upset. PartyPie hit the nail on the head.

do gooders need to go and find something else to do with their time like saving ants from echnidas or saving locusts from extinction jeez. pretty soon you won't be able to pass wind in your own homes without new smartmeter style firealarms going off.
