We ain't going anywhere this finals series. Make a statement and drop Travis. Send him off to the Scum in disgrace.

We'll struggle to beat Esssendon next week. What's the bet we don't tag Jobe Watson. :roll:

No actually, you are wrong
Unlikely.. I haven't been wrong since the 80's

And really I couldn't care less who you think you know at the club to massage your over inflated ego

People here will use his poor form as an excuse to say thats the reason he was not taken up by another club.... but the rumour file started weeks ago.

I've stated this before and will say it again

Collingwood have the last say and if they match any offers Cloke has to stay.
We hold the trump card... because we only have to make room in the salary cap for Travis's increase... whereas another club has to put aside and make room for around the 800k plus in their salary cap.

We then equal the offer and the other club is left with an 800k hole. Risky business for any side to be in.

Trav to stay.

Did they tell you that?
Did they tell you otherwise?
My eyes aren't embedded far up my clacker like yours, I can see for myself without being told.

Thank your lucky stars I refuse to post on our board on bigfooty, I'd make a mockery of your sycophancy on there too.
You're an embarrassment Nash Rising/Baltimore Jack.

O also believe he'll stay and that it's a good thing.

Some of the so called supporters on the other hand, I wouldn't shed a tear if they left tomorrow.

I've always believed he wanted to stay. I don't think his poor form is due to him not caring because he's going to another club either. I blame the massive focus on his contract and his inability to deal with it as major factors. He's not great at handling pressure. Unfortunately the club may now think differently and not be so willing to come to terms. He/his father may have cooked their own goose

How much is Cloke worth now?

Post by R_T_RUSH »

Melbourne have dropped out of the contest to sign Cloke.

The record books for 2012 will show Cloke was sub standard in a team primed for a flag tilt. Flag tilts don't come around every year.

Given the lost opportunity in 2012 what is he now worth to the Pies in 2013? Let's assume contract talks will resume at season's end.

An inform Cloke can win you a flag, that's why we aren't winning one this year.

Not true. If we match he does not have to stay. A trade can be negotiated or he can go into the draft
