Is this ground hog day or something? BT said the same thing 2 weeks ago. Nothing has changed. Its upto the club now. They need to make a choice between Cloke or Reid. It cant be both.

This entire thread is almost a fact free zone.
You don't have a great deal of respect for your fellow posters, some more than others are well informed. Brian like many of the posters is fairly well connected to the club, so he is hardly likely to put something up that is a lie at minimum.

My source was pretty accurate 4 days after the Monday talks and when the club had asked for a decision that they were again poles apart by the Friday. He told me that later that night. This time that same source has said its up in the air, so read what you will of that.

And the same source said it's now in the head of Cloke, which could mean anything!!!!!!!!!!

My gut feeling knowing a little about how the Clokes minds work from years of observation, David is being blinkered. Travs Carlton comments were either deliberate to scare Collingwood or stupid, or accurate because he is really considering a move.

Only time will tell us. Obvious statement.

And RR as passionate as you are, you perhaps should open up your mind to other people at times. You love Cloke obviously, we can see that, but having seen my heart throb Peter McKenna need to move to Carlton because my club saw fit to let this happen, nothing in life is a SHAW thing. In our modern era moreso than the 70's, money talks. Travis says he wants market rate. We can't give him this, so he wants more years, Collingwood don't think he is worth this.

You know that feeling when you've worked really hard in particular one year and come salary review time you think you're a shoe in for 5%. But the boss comes back and says 2.34%. You go WHAT?? You are gutted. You question your worth. Your ego runs wild. Sometimes though, there just are immovable forces that cause a reaction (cause and affect). This too shall pass and even I hope he will stay and I don't rate him much. But I also don't want to see what this will mean by losing him either.

Clokes both senior and junior should have done what they said they were going to and not discuss this during the season. Then they got shitty coz the club were dragging their feet. Seriously, in corporate world they would fail. But this is football, packed with emotion, some of which some of us saw on Sunday morning after our loss, pretty ugly.

Cloke however is not the end nor the beginning of our world. If he does go to Carlton, good luck to him but he will never be a household name, nor have any particular monetary cudos once he runs out of this cash in some dodgy share deal his manager got on to.

Anne, Cloke will do what he will do one way or the other and I will have some emotions and things to share when that happens. However, I'm not interested in rumour, innuendo, aspersion or downright abuse and the lemming like posts that it sometimes starts. There is way too much of that in this thread. I respect most posters opinions but its all been said over and over and over. Its just time people took a chill pill and tried to relax, is all.

What a joke that is!

Fair dinkum since we entered our reserves in the VFL we've done nothing but damage our brand at that level and we don't even get every week to try out developing players. The VFL is a JOKE!

Cloke is the Joker!

If he signs great, but if he is going to go elsewhere we wont know about it until our year is over. Seems like a guy with the weight of the world on his shoulders right now.

What a pisser...a few weeks back you were bloating to everyone on Nicks how your sources had informed you that Cloke had signed and then you go and post this tripe, you fraud.

Shove your sources up your ass.
