Analysis Smoke behind the mirror

[jmac70]

Paul Connors said this today about our beloved former power forward, Travis Cloke, regarding his 2017 season:

"I think his year wasn't that bad," Connors said.

"You're finding your feet always at a new club, but I think there's a spot for Trav, and I think he'll have a good year next year for the Dogs as well."

Even the most ardent of Cloke fans, and I am one, know that the big fella is cooked. It's time to join his brother in suburban footy and enjoy life again.

It actually makes me mad that spin doctors like Connors are able to say whatever the hell they want, and not be held to account. Surely there needs to be great regulation of these snake oil salesman?

His client already has a year left on his contract though.

Not on big money, could afford to pay him out.

Let him play out his contract, then after a few years in retirement forget he ever played at the kennel

Cloke is cooked.

Plus on Twitter, he said he liked Maxibons. The guy's a wreck.

I would agree.

But how about we focus more on our own backyard.

Good luck to Clokey by the way.

Allot more than marginally

What a strange thread! These weird times in which we live! Am I meant to have a view or can I just let this one pass through to the keeper?

I'm dead certain Maxibons are the best ice creams on the market. What could possibly be wrong with them?

I am out of the loop. I don't know what a 'Maxibon is? A Magnum, yes. Are they any good? Should I seek to consume one - or stick to the Golden Gaytimes?

Wrong thread?

Best to let as much through as possible and only play what you have to. The half volleys will come alomg after lunch
