Im sick of this Cloke shit

Commentators are like "get him leading up to the wing"

no BITCH, thats someone elses job in the forward line.

0 point in taking someone elses job away from them.
Why didnt Keeffe go forward? because hes a backmen and got dropped.

Collingwood is doing the perfect thing, by not always kicking to cloke.
theres 18 players on the field, not 1....*facepalm*

Then Cloke should go to the seconds woodys_world69?

I think that he has pace, great mark and when he doesn't think can kick quite well and get us really going with a mobile forward line.

He gets some form, pressure is off and then comes back with a bang.

Put him in the seconds may do him much worse.

Those comments regarding Witts not able to mark ,which are true I spose, but I dont see many ruckman taking grabs at the moment. Nicnat hasnt taken a mark all year and hes on a mill a year.

Not sure I could see Clokey playing back, just dosent seem to be getting involved though. I thought putting White in the ruck was a masterstroke on the weekend cause he was as useless as Clokey up until that point.

I think I recall Jack Spain making the same suggestion a few years ago when Cloke was in another of his many slumps. Won't do much good though because he can't mark the ball anywhere.

Pebbles came to us from Sydney as the answer to all our forward problems. He couldn't get a kick so ended up playing a full season almost for memory at CHB. The theory was/is you just run straight at it, get it, dispose. Rather than have to turn around before disposing.

Turned into one of the best CHF's in the game.

It might help C3 and maybe he is a better CHF than FF? ...Just sayin'.
