The Clokes s h i t e   me. They are only shopping around to get a bigger deal at Collingwood, father David has done it before with the others. If he tracks like his brothers then he only has a couple of more years in him before he sizzles out.

What irks me most about the Cloke's, even more than David's original betrayal, which was a big factor in our demise, was how when Collingwood were done with him and spat him out like a used chewy, he came crawling back to us. Yet after we took him back and extended his career another two years how did he repay us? By sending all of his piggish brood to the black and white filth. Traitor and maggot of the highest order. Avoid at all cost.

Don't you mean David Cloke walking out on the RFC for more money

There was a lot more to his departure than just that and you know it.


Perhaps but in the end it cannot be disputed that David Cloke chose the $$$ of the Pies over loyalty to the team that gave him a start.

Wouldn't be the first to do that and wasn't the last. The angst of Cloke's decision has grown substantially over the years because we've been poo ever since but like the rest of those dark years, we need to move on.

Cloke? I hope this is a joke. >:( >:( >:(

Yep, be a real joke to pick up the best forward in the comp.. :whistle

i dont think so mate.

lets be honest he had 1 good year when he was spoon fed pin point passes by Swan, Pendles and Thomas

He is not worth it and who needs his money hungry old man sniffing around Punt Road. Let him go to Carlton, fit right in there

Can just picture Travis & Damir oops David sitting with one T Scully and his old man sipping on lattes

It would be good to have a power forward of that quality but I belive Cloke would just too costly which would cause problems with reciuting other players or keeeping our own. I belive that Blair knows exactly what he is doing and trust his planning,

What if Blair decides Cloke is the best option for us?
