Rumours about the Clokes
« on: September 15, 2006, 05:10:20 PM »
Lots of rumours around the net including Collingwood forums that Jason and even Cameron have walked out on the Pies. There's even talk that Dimir ..umm I mean.. David Cloke wants Travis to leave Collingwood when he comes out of contract next year after falling out with Malthouse. Of course Richmond's name gets chucked in there too but would anyone here want any of them at Punt Road?

Don't you love this time of year  ;D.

I'd be more interested in any players who have walked out of St Kilda after Grant's demise than that lot
Clokey was great, but I'm glad his kids went to the Pies.
Don't want any of them or the baggage (parents) that come with them lol

Travis is the only decent one but I can't see us getting him unless we were to finish down near the bottom of the ladder next year. You've got to laugh at all these Pie fans thinking Wallace, who wants a skillful and quick defence, would be interested in Jason Cloke after offloading Chubba.

One of the best recruiting decisions made by the Tigers during the Frawley era was to select Cogs instead of use the Father-Son on Jason Cloke.  Would not want to see that decision undermined.

P.Bowden is a similar size and has proven to be a far better option than J.Cloke due his skills and flexibility in Terry's gamestyle.

Well I don't know about the Clokes, but what about if Frawley gets the gig at the saints, he might be prepared to trade Dal Santo for Krak. With Frawley's record he would probably consider that to be a good deal.

Jason and Cameron Cloke

Jason and Cameron Cloke have been told their positions at the Pies can't be guaranteed. They will look elsewhere.

I do not know who in their right mind would consider either... Jason in particular has no role in a modern footy team

Apart from all the history and totaaly besides that they just TOTAALY do not fit what we are trying to build - I would be very friggen surprised VERY if either got picked up.

Jason was OK for a year or so 3 or 4 years ago but has been shown out to many times when he has a specific job to do.

Cam - Big lumbering boofhead and I have seen willy play a few times he is soft and gutless not to mention his shoulder is fd it could pop anytime.

I thought Trav by far would be the best but even he seems to be running on the spot at the moment.

I have allways said I will back whoever comes to tigerland But man this would be really hard - That said I wouldn't be in to much of a quandary as they would be stuck at Coburg where they could be useful - maybe  :thumbsup needless to say anything and everything they did wrong they would be copping a spray from me.

Please dont do it Tigers - If for nothing else but my Last remaining throws of sanity  :banghead

These two and Richmond should never be mentioned in the same sentence.

CUB you are right on the money. It doesn't even make sense for us to recruit them with the side and gameplan we are trying to build. NO and NO!

If their surnames weren't Cloke would we even consider these obvious hacks?
