Cloke and Collingwood - to part or not to part?

i hope melbourne does end up with him simply because it would give us one of the most potent fwd lines in the comp with Clark/cloke mauling defenders and Jurrah (provided his trial goes well) and others moving around! with clark and cloke up fwd one of them will get the best defender and that will leave the other to dominate. the only question is, is he really worth what he is asking??? at his best he definitely is, and hopefully he can rid himself of his inconsistency at melbourne. that being said anything is far from materialising and we will all have to wait till seasons end to see whether he stays or goes. But the fact that contract talks were put off till seasons end doesn't sound good for collingwood as history proves!!! couldn't happen to a more deserving team haha

    Cloke dislikes Buckley and wants to go to Carlton with MM. This is the general concesus around the AFL traps. Source-Adam Kingsley's (St Kilda assistant coach) dad

    Davi Rhys Jones had a lunch with Sticks yesterday and Sticks asked him for his opinion about Cloke. Jones replied with "If he can win you a premiership get him!" Source-David Rhys Jones who I bumped into at the liquor store yesterday

    Make of it what you want........

    Vague comment - 'if he can win you a premiership?'

    What does that mean? Cloke's credentials are there to see. Premiership CHF, can play, power forward.

    Sounds like bs to me, no offence.

    Not having a go at you, D, it just seems a silly comment to come from someone who calls footy and knows the game.

    Your mail is old news its been hotting up for a long time now and we have been in there for months and months, if not longer. :)

    This plan was hatched long, long, long ago. Just like a few other little plans we shaw come to a fruition last year - hatched long, long, long ago. B) Its pure poetry in motion.

    The theatre of modern football. :wub:

    In a galaxy far, far away...

    So is Eddie just gonna declare war on the entire AFL now???

    Hopefully we have a plan B.

    Close has been an absolute spud this year, whatever he had a couple of years ago he has totally lost.

    Fingers crossed we don't get him as he will be a total liability.

    Throw the big dollars at midfielders please, not big gooses like Cloke

    Plan A - Get the best midfielder(s) through FA

    Plan B - Get Cloke through FA.

    If Plan A isn't going to happen, are we allowed to move to Plan B?

    I don't know.....is just that I'm very nervous about Cloke...nothing to like about him this year.

    Just sayin, I'd rathers throw the dollars at Boak, or Sewell.

    Get them both.

    Cloke will come for coin - free agency

    Boak for coin and Pick 12

    Too easy.

    The mail is .... Operation Get Cloke is hotting up at the Deez.

    I thought it was Operation Malthouse, smokescreen Cloke?

    Boak will cost Pick 4. Cloke will not.

    Sewell is attainable even if we land Cloke, if we can convince him to come.

    ...removes the need for a NQR tall (spencer,martin ect) as back up ruck to jamar...

    I'd say we'd still play another tall, just as Hawthorn do in Hale. Don't go putting someone like Cloke in the ruck.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
