Player Watch 32 Travis Cloke

[Kilmo]

You can't flog a dead horse I'm afraid. Even if he was played and puts up performances like he has of late it's not going to increase his value. His heart is just not in it

Not true. You can argue that he is a "required player" thus driving up his value. If everyone can see that both parties want apart as soon as possible, you have no bargaining power.

That's true. Fair point. But I think it's painfully obvious that all clubs know where trav is at.

some funny responses to a guy that continually has let us down over the last 3 odd years!

I come in peace guys. Just want to say, Cloke dropped 3 times this year now. Is that gone for Travis?

Yep.
Rumoured deal is Cloke and salary cap relief for Tom Boyd.

LOL no way we are getting Boyd. They paid a fortune for him and will not let him go under any circumstance. If they do, their recruiting staff probably will be fired.

Only because we made it as such.

Imagine Bonts, Libba, McCrae, Dahlhaus, Stringer kicking it to him. He'll kick 100.

That would be a big kick in the pills if that happened. Then again it wouldn't surprise me

He'd need 260 shots at goal to kick that many.

Seems a tad unlikely to me.

 

[Stoods]

9 marks (most out of any forward last week) and still gets dropped. He is as good as gone.

 

[whiskeytown]

I love cloke, but he's cooked.
He'll go, get a 2 year 350-400k deal somewhere else and end up like Dawes has at Melbourne

Clokes inaccuracy is completely exaggerated in here. He goes at 55%. 180 shots = 100 goals.

Sarcasm. Noted by some.

Does that stat include the ones that don't make the distance or skew off the side of his boot into the carpark?

 

[Eric_Melvin]

At the risk of repeating so many... He's gone. But a victim of serious incompetence and lack of skill going forward over the last five years has not helped his cause. Had he had some skilled foot passing and speed going forward, he may not be being talked about right now. Sure his goal kicking is shit. But his presence when on song is as good or better than any in the league. What a shame and a waste if we lose him.

I think it'll hurt me more seeing trav in a different coloured jumper than any of the other guys that have left from 2010. I've always loved the guy...

 

[Matt_352]

Cloke and Pick 25 for Pick 13 and 31. Use Pick 13 on Cloke replacement Josh Battle.

This. I follow the jumper, not the players, but you gotta have faves.

 

[Matt_352]

I agree Pick 25 and Cloke for Pick 13 and Pick 31 is a very fair trade

I actually don't mind that

 

[Markfs]

I find it fascinating to see how Cloke has changed one dysfunctional kicking action for another... and then see Mason Cox produce a pretty straightforward kicking action after looking like a girl kicking it during the AFL tryout in the USA. If I didnt know better, it's as if Cloke is trying to stuff up to get traded.

So many players have gone back under Buckley. Cloke will turn it around at the Bulldogs if he goes.
