Thanks for that. That link wasnt loading for me earlier for some reason.

Still, I do think the way he answered the question in his presser yesterday was a tad curious!

It's my understanding that the club are not prepared to pay any one player 10% or more of our salary cap, hence no Cloke.

Someone is going to be willing, and will magically find a way, to do that Robbie F. Most likely Carlton and, amazingly with Judd and Murphy, some twisted economics and brown visy cardboard boxes ( or bags) it will get done.

It made me nervous re cloke because of our financial state I have to admit, but at the same time it pains me that Carlton are a club that do that kind of stuff and we're just not. EIther not yet or not ever.

Listening to the Rats press conference today I doubt Carlton are serious bidders

I thought they were a monty to get him but I have changed my mind.

I have a feeling that with Melb and Carlton saying they are not in hunt that Mr Cloke might have over played his position.

Suddenly he looks to be not in as much demand as we thought.

Add in ( rumoured ) that Freo are hot for the Saint and who actually wants him at $1 million PA and five years?

Perhaps there is only Collingwood and they know it.
