I can't understand has been dropped
Yes he's been poor very poor really for a big man so talented
But has he been poorer than Blair or DeGoey or half the team for that matter ?
I think this is more to do with attitude than form
Maybe this is a wake up call not only to Cloke but the younger playing group as well
If they come out Monday breathing fire and play well then we will all be happy and make the decision seem right
If it back fires bucks h just loaded a gun to shoot himself in the a$$ with
I hope Cloke goes into the seconds crashes packs takes marks kicks a couple but most importantly shows leadership attitude and desire |

| My nightmare scenario is he goes back to the VFL, dominates for a half then does his knee. |

| Why not do the Jesse White experiment with him, give a few games at fullback in the vfl, move Reid to permanent forward. |

We are last, dead last for marks inside forward 50 and some of you actually believe dropping Cloke will help that?
Madness. Yes he hasn't been tearing the place down each week, but he's been better than most players in the 4 games we've played, not that it's that hard to be better than most at the moment.
It's hard to kick goals if you can't take marks inside 50, so leave him inside 50 thanks. |
So he can kick more Points then Goals?

Who is this everyone?
I'm obviously Nobody.
I never said to drop cloke, now that they have I'm willing to support it.
Nobody's perfect.

Some would argue that dropping Cloke is a sign already that Buckley has lost the plot.
If we drop Cloke however but retain Blair then it's not in doubt.
Bucks has gone the full tard.

He (Trav) will instead line up for Collingwood's VFL side against Essendon at Victoria Park on Sunday afternoon.
"It's my opportunity to go back to the VFL squad and get a kick, and see what goes from there,"

Sums it up for me.
So, the week we come up against a 2's standard backline in the 1's is the week we drop our star forward to find form.
This way of thinking is (in the true sense of the word, not in comparison to a disabled person), retarded.
One can only hope this is an elaborate hoax, but it doesn't look likely.......  ->  ->  ->  ->

| Some of us are thrilled that finally, at long last, Cloke has been held to account for his sub par performances. I truly hope we trade him out of the club at the end of the year - something we should have done 4 years ago when he and his old man publicly tried to hold our club to ransom. Cox and Darcy Moore are our future key forwards. |

Agree. Scattergun approach from selection committee. I have no faith in them. Dropping him against a sub standard defence? Seriously? Could have been an opportunity for him to get some form back on the seniors. Things are getting laughable.
