OK so with buddy and martin out i have suffered the pain of having to start cloke last week and again this week for buddy.

I had treloar on the bench  grrrr.

If buddy is back i have cloke / Zorko and Treloar to fill the last FWD spot.

For the rest of the season the plan was Zorko FWD 7 with Cloke only getting a start against weak teams, and treloar on the bench with cloke.

BUT - given the SPUDS (cloke) hopeless form I am not sure if I am even willing to give him a start against GWS.

keeping in ming zorko and treloar are who I also have, may have Zorko starting anyway if buddy still out, so if buddy is in it comes down to zorko, treloar or cloke?

this week picking cloke over treloar cost me over 60 points!

You'd hope Cloke destroys Giants. But you really cannot trust him can you?

i don't think i can trust him especially if they play cornes on him.... hell i don't  think i trust him matched up on whiley  :-\

but that's not my biggest concern which midfielder will be rested if any is a bigger concern i got swan pendles beams sidebottom, pendles wont be rested but the other 3......

bit of freshening up for finals ? teams will reveal all i also have marley williams :) he's good for a ton Vs GWS :)

yep i support the pies  ::)

Isn't Marley injured for the season?  ???

I hope they don't rest any players. But Cloke might get rested, you never know.  :-X

Buddy said he won't play this week but he'll be back to play Geelong.

Start Cloke over Treloar, but not over Zorko(if buddy doesn't play or whatever).

Treloar big chance for 30 after a big week.... Possible rest too.

sheeds will probably play davis on him. Dunno how that'd go though lol.

yeah i got adams on the mid bench with marley, so i can dpp treloar or zorko to cover mids if need be since marley is out, just thought i'd mention how ridiculous my DT is to have so many pies.. plus shaw  ::)

i think the poll has it right, i'd rather another 60 from zorko at worst than risk cloke, but if buddy isnt back its between treloar and cloke, and while that seems a no brainer, cloke has dished up two in a row under 40 pffft, i think it would hurt less getting 30 from treloar than it would from the millin dollar spud.

pity we cant GIVE him to GWS as a gesture of goodwill to the new club..... when the pies turn up at the game next week, cloke just gets handed a GWS jumper by Buckley and no more is said about it.....

we dont want him. We have cameron and patton, and if we can keep them, you're all flowered in a couple of years :P

the GWS kids are getting tired mate, i'd be starting Cloke. If Pav can kick 7 with the way the dockers played yesterday, then Cloke will kick a bag

It's time for Buckley to stamp his authority and drop Cloke and or Dawes. I'd be really surprised to see both line up against GWS. Neither of them deserve the gig.

The GWS game would be a would be a good time to send a statement as they'd almost certainly win anyway. But with percentage such a crucial thing with a logjammed top 8 I think Buckley might take his chances that the big fellas will rediscover their form.

Start Cloke.  Pies will be chasing percentage so it will be all out attack.  He is a spud, but there will be plenty of ball coming towards him this week.
