?? What do you guys think he could add to our current list?

 

[The Dr]

would absolutely love him. Despite his kicking issues, he's exactly that big body, pack crashing, strong marking forward we need.

Only prob is, there is no way he'd get through to us in the PSD, and now trade week's over.

Plus the fact there's a 0.2% chance he'll leave the pies.

 

[eliasd82]

Would compliment our forward line nicely...

 

[DaveyTrainxpress]

I was hoping someone would start a thread on this

I would love him at the dees, he can't kick but he's a stong body and can take a really good mark. If we can offer him big $$$ which we have he can then put a price on himself for the draft which could then see him come to the dees at pick 12. I would be happy with that.

It's worth a try, we have to do something surely.

 

[Andy_Mac]

He's a younger dumber Brad Miller.

Hope he goes ND and GC taking him before us. Would mean an even better chance of one of the main KPF getting to us.

He's not Miller. He's a very good player despite choosing an idiot manager and I'd love him. But its win-win if he enters the draft, if we don't get him then we still get someone better and Collingwood lose their CHF. It won't happen though.

That is a disgustingly shit opinion.

Despite his kicking issues, his contested marking alone would make him a more than worthy pickup. His presence alone in the forward line would be fantastic for us and we could play him as the leading CHF that he is meant to be, not the FF Collingwood seem to be using him as.

Only problem with Cloke is his manager, his ******* father.

 

[Rudeurrection]

He wont come cheap, he would probably want 600k a year over 4 years.

Would be keen to add him but that price could really **** us up in the future when we need to re-sign our young guns. This is why i would have preferred Jesse White at probably 2/3's of what Cloke will want. Why the **** didn't we chase him?????!!!!!!!!!!!!

Id like Cloke on our list but not at the price his dad would be asking for. I would pass even though he would serve a pretty big purpose here.

 

[cannons]

Doubt he'll be going anywhere, but he would definitely be a good addition to our forward line.

I'm pretty sure that White is contracted until the end of 2012, so even if we did have a go at him, Sydney would've been in a very strong bargaining position.

It hasn't even been confirmed if we are keen on Cloke but lets say we are......

White is contracted but i would still prefer giving away a player (like Maric or Warnock) along with our 2nd rounder and 3rd rounder.

If we were to draft Cloke i have no doubt it will have to be with our first round pick in the draft to secure him. We would then be locked into a massive contract for a large period of time.

It would just piss me off if we used our first rounder on Cloke along with paying top dollar when there were other options that we could have had a go at without jeopardising our list/cap for the future.

 

[demonfan9]

Does anybody really believe Cloke is going to leave Collingwood after they just won the premiership? He is obviously just trying to get some more money out of the Magpies by threatening to leave.

 

[bloodpumpsRnB]

Not gonna happen. They won't let him go.

 

[Deefolt]

they dont have a choice on whether he leaves or not bloodpumpsRnB.

I would love him for Melbourne and exactly what I thought when I was reading the news on twitter. Doubt he will leave Collingwood as well. Will be hard as hell to get him in the draft but would be good if we could.

Sign him for 2-3 years then let our forwards take over his positions

 

[Deestroy]

He's a younger dumber Brad Miller.

You're kidding right?

 

[Surkin]

If he entered the ND would definitely use out first pick on him. Having said that I am sure the GC would snap him up before us.

 

[Andy_Mac]

You're kidding right?

I am. He's actually a bloody good young footballer. Brad Miller comment has more due to his ability in front of goals. His presence and contested marking is far superior.

I just have a very very strongly dislike for the Clokes. All of them.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Would take him in a heartbeat. However, if he does miraculously leave the pies, GC have the money and the picks to grab him before anyone else does. I'm sure he's not going anywhere...

 

[BigSexc]

dumb as dog ****.. wont. come on guys this is not the guy we want at the club.. come. wanky as tats. out of the. gets bullets shot at his house. closet either.

 

[unstable punt]

Would compliment our forward line nicely...

should offer him more money than the pies see if he'll do it, he's just what we need up front

 

[Cudi_420]

He's an average player made good under a fantastic coach. A rich man's Brad Miller.

 

[stretcharmstrong]

Would love to have him but he's not going anywhere! Plus he would not sign anything less than a four year deal I wouldn't think, and I don't like the idea of giving long deals to KPFs who are known to be flakey in-front of goal.

 

[The Dr]

LOL.

No.1 contested mark in the comp.

Yup - very, very average player

 

[d33my]

Actually the only Collingwood player I like. Would be very surprised if he budged from the pies though. even then we'd be up against some competition.

 

[Steamin Demon]

Far out, thought this thread referred to Travis Johnstone.
