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

    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

    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...

    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: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
