My thoughts exactly. Kick is the main problem, Carlton have to come down hard on him (not that it matters as he's a complete dud anyway)

Yeah pretty low act if true (just the kicking part).
Didn't he have a swing at Ackland last year too? (although that one is more than justified)
He must have something against dud ruckmen.
Definitely not a king hit, but he did cop two in the face from Setanta who is an absolute monster. Not sure many players would be straight up after that.
Watching the video, it's clear Cloke didn't throw a punch but was merely trying to get some control in the wrestle. Then Setanta gives him a 1-2 and a kick to the jatz crackers.

A little boot in the arse. Hell we should be so lucky.
I reckon that kick was for the weak acting effort by cloke.

Without the kick I reckon he would've been alright but he is probably going to struggle to keep his contract.

Uh, most people cant take a punch, especially if its from an athletic tall bloke who spends his days lifting weights, kicking football ect.
Plus you have to remember that O'Halpin Irish

Setanta is a firey mofo, you only need to watch him play to see it. Imagine if he played for Ireland in those two controversial IR series. It would have been on for all and sundry.
What an absolute disgrace.
The punches were not the problem as both players were going but as Cloke is FACE DOWN and motionless he kicks him hard in the balls. Just can't believe how another teammate did not come in and smash him.

Because nobody likes Cloke?

on further viewing i've come to the conclusion that carlton is stepping up its staging this year - umpires take note
That second punch was more than enough for me to say 'On ya bike, son'.
Cloke didn't have his hands up and wasn't defending himself -- he certainly wasn't about to throw a punch, either.
It was a king-hit. I don't care how 'heated' intra-club matches get, there is no excuse for smacking a bloke on his knees with his hands down.
That photo posted earlier as a ripper, btw.

get rid of him
get rid of him
nothing in it, in Ireland thats how they say hi to eachother.
O'hailpin is a ****ing idiot and a hack. Carlton would be better off without him.
A bit of a wrestle is forgivable but to punch Cloke twice and then to kick him while he's down is a dog act by a useless dog of a player.
it looked like cloke pulled his hair.
Really?
Ratten seems to hold a different view to yours, as did the AFL officiating umpires.
Striking you could almost forgive, kicking a bloke on the ground is a dog act...........plain and simple.
Maybe Santana just wanted to go back home?
