But what about Cloke? Was the thorough thrashing he copped acceptable? He made that slug Brown look like Tarrant on the lead. For Cloke to concede 3 goals to his opponent in the first quarter, not to mention the assists was very costly.

At least we now know what the result of the grand final would have been if Cloke played.

First game back, played ok after quarter time, still proppy on the ankle, I forgive him.
 
Cole is hard, his disposal can be fixed and we need his heavy body. Should stay in.

Didak is hungry and chases poorly, 1 dimensional player at the moment, but he does play in starvation corner-if there's no crumbs he don't eat. Should stay in.

Lokan was a bit stunned by the speed and intensity of the game-I don't mean footspeed, we're faster than Brisbane, but the ball was really zipping around and it was pretty willing in the middle. Not Robinson Crusoe there, but Shaw definitley handled the crunch better, so his spot is under pressure. Out.

McGough was utterly blinded by the pace and intensity of the game and was smothered about 8 times. He prefers it a bit wetter and tighter: This game was ripping apart and he was too slow to get in the way or out of the way. Needs to sharpen up mentally-its one thing to be the hunter, another to be hunted-other sides are working him out a bit. Deserves a spot on the bench, but not a starter for the rest of the year. I love this kid, star of the future.

Betheras Scotland and Davis all should come back sometime this year to see if they are up for the finals. Scotland and Rupe have the intensity for finals, but they need to stick to the script. Stay down Rupe! Scotland don't wrestle Burns for the ball! Davis has to find form, and a glimpse of seniors sunlight might just wake him up. He needs to earn the spot first, hopefully hard work will get him back so he can find the magic again.

J Brown has beaten Cloke when Cloke has been fully fit. Cloke is not accountable enough, he will always be beaten one on one, it has been proven in every game where he finds himself in that position. When our backline are all playing he's able to be assume the role of a loose man in defense, he is better as the third man across the contests, but that's about it. On Saturday was not the first time he has been exposed. Hurry back Presti!

God help us if Carey plays on friday night and Cloke lines up on him.

J Brown, in case you are unaware, is a very, very good footballer. He has beaten better men than Clokey before.

But yes, please hurry back Presti.

Oh indeed....I am very well aware of J Brown's abilities. BUT my whole point was CLOKE. We just cannot afford to have Cloke going one out with players of this ilk!
 
GEE THATS FUNNY
Last week I was bagged because I said that Richard Cole was skating on thin ice!!!
Everyone seemed to disagree, I said that if we loose the next few games, he will be one of the first to go, i dont think that he will go this week

but it is amazing that all of a suden he plays a bad game(below his average) and we loose a game that he comes under scrutany from you guys!
 
Well the thread mentions that he is not ready, for AFL footy!!!
It's funny how people agree with me, ones it acctualy happens but when I cast my opinion I am wrong!!!
 
The answer is one.

Apart from yourself, Daicos4ever wants Cole dropped. Everybody else agrees he deserves to be in the 22.
 
Yes, as do I, not only do I think that he is much harder at the ball then most players at collingwood, with the exeption of only a selected few...
