Just wondering if anyone else beside me is foolish enough to have Cloke (from the start)

He is in no form, looks disinterested


Trade, keep, bench???

Have to keep him, games against Gold Coast and Melbourne coming up dont think i would be benching him.

Finished last year strong, hopefully comes right for you

Had him from rd1 too. Not my best selection....lol, still gotta keep him til after the bye I suppose. Though for an extra $60k I could field zorko off the forward bench, mpp couch from mid to forward and use clokes cash towards getting in Priddis. Not in any real plan though just a random option. Could actually go Cloke and Magner for Ablett and Sexton....dunno yet

Im keeping him. He will pick up again once the confidence is back.

If he is still performing below par ill be "sideways upgrading" to someone better. But for now he is staying...

Who else do you have in your forwards? I would say trade

I wouldn't call it a foolish pick. He averaged 95.7 last year after all. Plus he scored 93 and 94 in the first 2 rounds. It all seemed to be going to plan...and then not. I'll be giving him until the bye to show something. If he can't tear it up against GC and Melbourne then he's a lost cause.

Going to have to wait to see how he goes v Bock-less GC and Melbourne... BE still achievable.

its me lads

get rid of him. no interst just wants the season to finish so he can sign the dotted line at freo

Plastic Boy

Rutten is one of the best defenders, was no surprise he was going to have a quiet game.

Keep him, plenty of the season still to come and I'm sure he'll turn it around

Lucastorm

Trade - collingwood obviously doing fine without him performing...

Yeah you could risk keeping him hoping he kicks a bag against melbourne and gws... but will you be suprised when he doesn't??

As above get him after he proves FIRST to the team he is worth kicking it to, and second proves to you with a couple of big scores he is worth having.

Sam_D

pretty proud when i picked him last yr... his formed started to drop dramatically when the media had speculation that other clubs wanting him. that jinxed him >:(

Tom_16

Was very close to getting him at the start of the season and i'm glad i didn't. If i were you i'd keep him, he will eventually come good you just have to be patient (which is not easy at all).

Chose him in sc and his 2012 has been an utter disappointment! This year has proven that all forwardlines should be built around mid/forwards ala sidey, beams, robbo, danger, chappy, zaha etc + only buddy as a consistent kpf. Unfortunately though unless u r in a position to sideways trade, keeping cloke may be the only option. He very well may bounce back against a bock less gc and struggling dees so all may not be lost. Hopefully for us struggling he bounces back, but if u r in a position with sufficient trades and a good bye plan the best option would be to bring  in one of the players i mentioned above^^ good luck with your choice mate :)
