Jason Cloke would be getting regular games in Hawthorns joke of a defence and be hailed as a solid young player.
Cameron Cloke would be easily Hawthorns number 2 ruckman, and hailed as the next great ruckman.
Travis Cloke at Hawthorn would be hailed as the next Dermott Brereton.

We may have 'choked' in the grand final(s), but by the sounds of it you weren't alive to see your last one.
Yes i was alive to see our last one which was 1991. And our 'joke' of a defence is actually starting to take shape with the introduction of Boyle, Brennan and Roughead down there. In our rucks not only do we have the best ruckman in the comp but we also have Campbell and Taylor who are also very good players. And as for Travis Cloke being hailed as the next Dermott Brereton at Hawthorn..Get real mate cause 2 be like Dermott u have 2 have guts n not be such a pussy player like Cloke is!

Take your pick of which backman should make way for Jason, personally I said before the game bring in Jason and do not play Maxwell in the back line, if at all, funnily enough we got murdered in the backline for once and Maxwell was a liability

Out of all the backline players Wakelin has had the poorest form.
I would not drop Maxwell he has had good form and is flexible. *waits for eddiesmith flaming*

What flaming? I would only drop Maxwell if St Kilda got back a couple of their tougher players this week. He has shown he cant beat a stronger opponent. He needs to work on some strength. This week and last week jason should have played, Mick wont pick him for some reason, who knows why? I have always felt Mick had something against Jase

Maxwell is a mid sized defender who should only play on the likes of Lucas in an emergency. However having said that he did quite well against him on ANZAC day and beat him in many one on ones.
He can play on big slow forwards (the resting ruckmen usually) just he struggles against mobile and strong forwards. He performs very well on smaller players as well.
