Kildare minor sensation Paul Cribben has reportedly been offered a professional contract to join the Australian Football League. Cribben - younger brother of Kildare senior panellist Keith - recently spent two weeks on trial with Collingwood and is understood to have been offered a two-year rookie contract by the Melbourne-based club. The prodigious Balyna forward will be eligible for minor football again next year and doesn't even sit his Leaving Cert until May 2010. He has been a driving force as the Lilywhites qualified for this year's Leinster MFC final with victories over Wicklow, Wexford and Meath. Tweet
