Travis Cloke injury [RUMOUR]

[Salty]

I have it on pretty good authority that Trav has hurt his knee.
Possibly season ending. Similar injury to Otten from Adelaide.
Will be announced sometime today I would think.
Collingwood staff in Melbourne got the call yesterday.

I really hope it is not as bad as they think.
I actually hope this whole thing isnt even true.
But im pretty sure it is and its the season.

Looks like Bucks has work cut out for him this season.

F**k - Well I guess that would put a lot more Pressure on Dawes and Also get his chance

We see if it's True 1st

I'm calling shenanigans until it's proven, even in the states this would have leaked like a sieve

True but we did Hide the Fact Ball had been at Lexus Pre-Draft.

Though we have to wait if it's true or someone is telling Porkie Pies

Re: Travis Cloke injury

If true then could this change our thinking for the rookie draft and go after a mature age forward as back-up to play VFL?

Re: Travis Cloke injury

Im praying that I am wrong.
I even went on the Collingwood website to check the day 11 photos.
Didnt see Trav in any of them but that doesnt prove anything.
Also went on Harry's Facebook and he has not mentioned it.

If this turns out to be false im happy for this thread to be deleted and this never to be spoken of again.

Also if true it will give our hearts less of a workout without him lining up in front of goal.

No mention of any injury on Licca's day 13 interview with Dayne Beams. Hopefully your source is wrong.

We've already got Leigh Brown as well as Josh Fraser - in fact Nick Maxwell can play forward as well. The list is well set up to cover these contingencies.

We dont need another mature aged back-up. Should this news be true we'll swing two of Rusling Dawes and Anthony forward and one of Reid or N Brown will take L Browns spot in defence.

I doubt they would not Mention Injuries. It would come out as a Article on the Page

Agree if Cloke is Down it would give Dawes would most likely play Cloke's Role and could be the Making of Dawes

If its true we can kiss the fflag goodbye this year, we're no chance without trav IMO.

 

[MagpieJoel]

I have it on pretty good authority that Trav has hurt his knee.

'Pretty good authority'. Pfft.

Until I see a news story about it, this thread is BS.

Agree. Very important player.

 

[jerry springer]

christ i hate the off-season

 

[DThomas]

If this is true I hope Rusling can get in the team. He looks like he could be a damaging forward if he doesn't get injured.

Hopefully this rumour is BS though.

 

[TheClokes]

close thread. Bullshit

The fact that both licca and beams said everyone has got through the camp and we are in the best shape we have been in years.

Well they could be told not to say anything about Cloke but Most Likely they Story is False

It would make sense, considering Russel Robertson is still available.
