| 3AW Rumour File today has Cloke signed sealed and delivered to the Tigers for 2017. Pity he is contracted, but hey I like the Rumour. |

| Mick Warner at 3AW just stated Cloke did his calf at training yesterday. Seems like an amatuer hour. |

For the sake of the coach, he'd want that rumour to be factual...

Cloke is probably enjoying his time not being the team scapegoat.

He had to be withdrawn this afternoon - what a pack of geese the senior selectors would have looked if he dominated the VFL (for the second week in a row) straight after we couldn't get a mark inside 50 in an entire half of football against a team as bad as Carlton.
I'm glad they've been picking the seniors on form - God only knows how they'd be performing if there were some out of form players in the seniors. |

Yet sadly, all that now tells me is that sniper Merrett is going to have a picnic at whatever end of the ground he plays at next week; no Brown or Cloke.

Getting Cloke out of the team has made all the difference in the world. It's obvious from the power-marking display against Carlton yesterday that Travis has been the reason for our trouble all along.
Now that we've sorted out FB and CHF, should we start looking at re-placing, say, Pendlebury and Sidebottom? - they don't seem to be doing enough in the midfield at the moment....
Seriously, why is it that, in any given match, Sidebottom can either kick most of our goals or get our clearances - but not both (except sometimes)? What's the cause of this inconsistency? Perhaps he has been the real problem all along?
I genuinely think we need to start making More Brave Calls right now. |

I agree on Pendles! 
Take the captaincy off him, and he might play unshackled!
I reckon Cloke was home laughing with an ice pack full of cash, to pretend he was injured, so the selectors don't look so stupid.
If Cloke played yesterday, we win. I've bagged him, but 2 weeks is enough humiliation to give him a roost if that was what was needed. And quite frankly I'm disgusted that bucks had the cheek to say he's not best 22.
Moore needs the support of Cloke. We will kill him otherwise. He got pansied over and over, no body strength. The kid doesn't stop trying, I don't want to see him injured. Cloke would have taken their two best defenders, and quite frankly, that would have been plenty. Carlton may have improved but they are still shit, we are just shitter!

Reckon White did enough to keep cloke out of the side yesterday, combined with Cloke not playing in the ressies, could be a long road back. Hopefully the trade rumour to Richmond is true and we get something decent for him while we still can.

In the form of picks rather than players
