Opinion Time for Cloke to have a run in the McGoos?

[Dicky_Knee]

He is clearly struggling, in past years the Cloke fans have suggested if he isnt taking marks inside the forward 50, he was still the highest marking player in the game when he floated up on the wing trying to get into the game. This isn't the case atm.

I admit, i'm not a fan but i think a clear message would be sent to him with a run in the 2's he lacks confidence right now and i don't see that getting better anytime soon, let him rag doll a few backs take a few marks, hopefully kick some goals.

It might put a rocket up his butt, get him thinking he needs to sharpen up a bit.

I know the fan bois will flame me, but i dont care, to me, he is more of a liability atm.

He need better delivery too, i give him that, but he gotta lead and lead hard all night, get onto the end of some of Fasolos darts.

Flame away.

No

 

[BEEG]

Seriously get real

 

[TradeDraft]

Said that a few years ago when he was not in great form and I was Crucified about it

 

[domus]

Sigh.

 

[SuperSub17]

Not playing great but our structure turns to water if he doesn't play.

That Sums It Up

Then who will provide a decoy for White? Just silly! And please wait until Ben returns - will be delicious

 

[Demonalke]

WTF. He takes two defenders with him, even to get milk on sunday morning.

Obviously a joke

 

[The Royal Sampler]

No. We can't replace him.

 

[Kirby]

Do you get a prize for starting a stupid thread?

 

[Robroy22]

Watching the Hawks kill the suns....how come Gunston gets soft frees when he's molested by backmen? Clokey can only dream of this stuff.

A joke?

27 kicks /11 handballs/ marks 20/ contested marks 4/ goals 2 /behinds 3

That aint a joke. He is clearly struggling.

So you hurt the team to make a point to clokey? thank god you are not a coach.

 

[blaze036]

Yes, let's play Cloke and Swan in the 2nds.

******* brilliant

 

[DinoSoar]

In a word, no.

Too important to our forward line structure. Got enough issues covering for injuries without creating another imbalance to appease the perfectionists sitting on the sidelines.

 

[Bard]

Is there a way to hide threads?

 

[kelvarnsen]

i posted this in another thread
i wish cloke used his elite endurance to help out the backline like gunston

Because Clokey has 24kgs on him, it's a load of s**t.

 

[kelvarnsen]

bucks nailed it in his post match interview last night

But Buckley believes Cloke has been hard done by in the way umpires are interpreting marking contests he is involved in.

"I do believe there are a couple of sets of rules out there at the moment," Buckley said.

"He's getting umpired to one set and everyone else to another.

 

[Apex36]

Way too important to our structure to drop. Even if he does nothing he is being double teamed. Seriously, I like White, but he would be destroyed if he got the attention Clokey gets, and that's what would happen if Trav was dropped.

 

[neilk]

So without Travis taking the no. 1 defender how does our forward line shape up? No matter if he's not hurting the opposition on the score board thse around him are really appreciating the hard work he's putting in which gets others off the leash.

 

[bucksisbest]

North Melbourne football club like this.

 

[Seedsfan]

Personally I don't think it is the right move. it will put even more pressure on him also untill Reid is fit he is a must play in the side

 

[PP417]

Trav will come good, don't worry about that!
He will be fine - just needs to really start running hard again!
