Bio
Born into West Australian football royalty, Andrew Krakouer is the younger brother of North Melbourne champions Jim and Phil. He entered the league carrying the weight of a famous surname, joining the Kangaroos as a skilled small forward with natural goal sense. While he displayed flashes of the family's signature flair—booting eight goals in just eight senior appearances—he struggled to cement a regular spot in the senior 22 during a competitive era for the club. His career included a stint on Essendon's list in 1992 where he was unable to break into the senior side, followed by a brief return to the Kangaroos' squad. Ultimately, he remained a depth player whose elite tenure was short-lived compared to his brothers' legendary standing in the game.
