Kane Munro (born 11 March 1982) is an Australian rules footballer who played with the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Munro grew up in Walpeup but completed his schooling in Bendigo, where he played for the Pioneers. A midfielder and half forward, he was recruited by the West Coast Eagles in the 1999 AFL draft at selection 41. He made just two appearances in the 2000 AFL season but contributed to East Perth's win in the WAFL grand final. The following season he played in another WAFL premiership team and from seven further AFL games could only manage a total of 39 disposals. [1] Despite playing just twice in the 2002 home and away season, Munro was picked in the team for the elimination final against Essendon at Docklands and kicked three goals in a losing cause. [2] He however struggled to have an impact in his six games in 2003, largely due to a shoulder injury sustained in a training accident. [3]
From 2002 he had played his WAFL football at Swan Districts and continued at the club in 2004 after being delisted by West Coast. He then returned to Victoria and joined the Mallee Football League.

Promoted from the rookie list prior to the 2004 season, he made his debut for the club in round five, and became a regular in the side the following season as a half-back flanker, playing in West Coast's grand final loss to Sydney. In 2006, Nicoski fractured an ankle midway through the season, and thus missed out on playing in the club's premiership victory. Over the next seasons, shoulder and groin injuries restricted his time on the field, but in 2011 he took up a different role in the team, kicking 41 goals playing as a forward. Nicoski also represented Australia in the 2011 International Rules Series. However, after serious injuries, including a torn hamstring during the final of the 2012 pre-season tournament, he did not play at AFL level over the following two seasons.
