    Depends on his form, and you would only use a low pick. He is still young and would be Hungry so who knows ?

    Couldnt be any worse than some of the players people are willing to sack. eg Holland etc

    I don't think he is too bad a player Jason Cloke, and was stiff not to get picked up.

    Worth considering IMO.....we are hardly overloaded with key backs at the minute.

    If we got him it would be for next to nothing.

    I think he'd be worth having on our list. I think he'd be a decent full back.

    The guy has one skill: punch from behind. Also from memory his kicking is not too flash.

    Maybe as a spare third defender for when Rivers, Carroll or our new CHB/FB (whoever that runs out to be) are injured.

    maybe as a spare bench warmer for when whelan mclean bartram bate dunn holland sylvia davey robertson neitz miller white mcdonald trav bruce green carroll bell jones ward brown pickett frawley petterd garland newton weetra neville johnson jamar godfrey yze ferguson bizzell moloney buckley johnson rivers warnock and wheatley are out

    He can't play a key post, too slow and plays too loose. Sounds like Bizzell. I'm sure he can still play good football like Bizzell did on the weekend but like Bizzell consistancy will be his problem because if he gets found out being too slow and playing too loose he will struggle to get a game.

    No. Flat out No. Sh!t kick, and we have all the loose defensive players *coughwardcough* we need.

    Would rather The Biz than a Cloke!!

    Agreed..........but I think he would offer more than Fergs.

  • Quote

    Is Fergs the prime example of the difference in class between VFL & AFL? or is it a lack of confidence when playing in the seniors??

    he smashes them stupid in the vfl - his job on ablett in last year's grand final nearly won him the best on ground!!

    we all know that cloke is going no where fast as an afl footballer. we have a players who are capable of preforming the same back up roles cloke would play already on the list. these players are part of the team already. i'd rather keep the team together and have an extra draft pick than swap like for like or picking up an extra dud.

    is this thread for real? jason cloke? the collingwood hack who had one good year? whose 14 year old brother was better than him, granted he looked about 34. we can't seriously be debating picking up jason cloke! must be a different one

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
