Trav Cloke to Carlton..? say it isn't so..

[Unknown Identity]

Strong rumours going around at Etihad that Carlton are trying to land Trav Cloke..

Has come from a couple of sources now..
Been talked about on AFL Radio..

Highly doubt it, but he still hasn't signed..

 

[mattys123]

It isn't so.

 

[magpietray]

GOD I hope not !!!!!

 

[Pies time is NOW]

No chance.

 

[HFF]

Hahaha, yeh right.

Not a hope in hell.

 

[FredNerk69]

It's all the talk on trade radio. Surely not but if it is true lets hope we screw them over.

The thing in our favor is that Damian Barret is a flog and generally knows nothing

How would they get him? What would they trade they we would want?

He won't last until their pick in the PSD etc as Melbourne would grab him with open hands and have plenty of cap space.

David Cloke is on AFL radio right now..

Has implied that Trav may be up for grabs..

The Age are reporting Carlton's trying to land a "big fish".

Rumours are circulating that Carlton is going to land a 'big fish'. Daniel Kerr's manager has denied his client is heading to the Blues.

 

[adamov13]

Please he isn't going anywhere.

David Cloke on Trade Week Radio now. Said the Carlton stuff was all bunk, but oddly did say if a deal couldn't be done he was considering plonking Trav in the draft, what?

 

[HFF]

David has said nothing will happen in this trade period.

Nothing to worry about.

Travis will be a Collingwood player.

 

[the mighty T]

wont happen in the trade period...

I dont like the way David Cloke is approaching the issue though

It doesnt sound as positive as i wouldve hoped

 

[FredNerk69]

David Cloke just said 99% sure nothing will happen in the trade period. but did not discount the national draft.

This guy is a flog.

He's doing it to up his price at Collingwood.

Pavlich does that each time to Freo. Creates whispers that he might leave, ends up signing.

As was said earlier, don't know what Carlton can offer us that we'd accept.

Doesn't appear to be terribly smart. Being a father is one thing, but being a player's manager requires more wit and tact, which he hasn't got.

David Cloke is the biggest ****ing snake. Trav, do yourself a favour and get a proper manager, Pickers would be better than your old man.

 

[HFF]

Personally, I'd be doing the same thing for my son to ensure he gets the best deal possible.

David ain't doing nothing wrong.

 

[FredNerk69]

Did state that he wants to stay a Pie.

But wants to screw that club over for $$$$ basically.

No kidding, what an amateur.

 

[jonesy86]

He realises Trav nearly cost us the first GF and played the replay as good as Jason Cloke in '03.

 

[mattys123]

Settle down people. Travis Cloke will sign a new deal either Tuesday or Wednesday, despite what his old man says.

Trav wants to stay, and in the end he will tell his Dad to shut up and do a fair deal.

 

[the mighty T]

Absolutely agree however his comments basically explained to me that

-He's not happy with the deal being offered
-He's willing for trav to go into the PSD
-Trav wants to stay which he reiterated

It just comes across as being a bit like holding the club for ransom

He even talked about free agency and only signing for 2 years so that trav can walk out to the club of his choice under the free agency rules.

Not positive enough for my liking

 

[thecig]

David said that travis is a bit disappointed that he hasn't been approached to go into the leadership group.

Good lord, plz sign up our 23 yr old centre half forward collingwood!

 

[Phone]

The Age are reporting Carlton's trying to land a "big fish".

Scott Pendlebury imo.

 

[HFF]

Leadership is something earnt, not given.

Travis needs to earn this from his teammates, not his manager or the football club.

Whilst I think there is no chance of Travis leaving now, particularly since we are on the verge of some serious sustained success, I do not want to lose our CHF either under any circumstances.
