Travis Cloke

Post: # 1014383Post Animal Enclosure »

It looks like David Cloke is using the 'How to get more $$$ for your client' manual & starting to spruik his son to Carlton & whoever else has an open chequebook.

Having said that, wouldn't it be nice to give the Filth a slap back & land Cloke to play alongside Roo.

You can say whatever you like about Cloke but there isn't a backline around that would be able to deal with the two of them

We already have one CHF with poor to average conversion in Roo, don't need an even less reliable one in Cloke

He would demand at least 500k a year.

We don't have that kind of money in the cap

There is no way we would be able to pay the sort of money he is asking.
Can't imagine he would help with our inacuracey either.

The rumour is that Carlton are causing some increased pressure on the Pies, maybe no Tarrant if he stays.

Carlton would be a good fit as they lack a dominant forward.

Tarrant is a done deal already.

HOw will the Saints get blamed for that?

I couldn't help laughing out loud listening to the Collingwood fans calling up SEN complaining about how CLoke wasn't worth what his manager (his father) was trying to get from their Club.

I don't recall them complaining last year when Ball was going through teh reverse scenario to get to tehm?

The thought of the Pies being shafted by the Clokes is hillarious!!! If Cloke was to have gone during trade week, he would have commanded a hell of a lot more compensation than Ball ever could have.

If they lost him because he put himself up for the draft and Carlton picked him up, can you just imagine the Filth supporters anguish? The thought of it is 'delicious'..... :lol: :lol:

Can you explain why they would complain last year and why they wouldnt this year? I gather Collingwood supporters do follow Collingwood.

A kick in the nuts.
The equivlent of a mid 5th round pick in an uncompromised draft.


Fremantle improved their 3rd round pick from 44 to 43 and got pick 55.
But Gold Coast has already signed 12 players who would have been in this draft and some clubs have earlier un-numbered picks as compensation for losing uncontracted players to Gold Coast.

Maybe i do but that costs nothing. You do realise Medicare only gets you back about 70%. At the rate you have been going it is going to cost you 5K out of your own pocket.

I'm pretty sure that would come under 'general health' so either your comprehension skills need looking at or your eyesight?
Maybe if you looked through both eyes instead of your normally AFL Coloured one , you might see everything that is posted?

Do you reckon everyone else had had enough of us on this thread yet?
At least it beats the incessant 'bagging' posts that have been prevalent on here the last week or so.

Interesting fact, Roo kicked one more goal than Travis this year, and he only played 15 games.

The 12 kids the GC signed after last year wouldn't have been in this draft under the old rules. They would have been bottom agers in 09. Every other bottom-ager who didn't get signed is going into this draft, so it's effectively 16 months of draft dates minus 12 players. Even when you factor in the GC and the comp picks, it's still going to be the one of the deepest pools in the last ten years.

Great effort for Roo to have played 15 games this year given his horrendous injury. Pity most people will only remember that miss in the GF replay.
