As long as none of our players kiss him we'll be ok.

Which means something is potentially half true.

Might be the same one that Dal had a month back......


...also note that Ben Reid is a Pie emergency and he has not playeda senior game since Round 13 (but then again we have Steven as one of ours).

That being said, Bock isn't a bad player....plenty of scalps this year.

Pie supporters close to the team are confirming it's true


I'm loving this - underdogs at 3 to 1, grand final experience in our favor and Pies over confident. Go Saints - I'm loading up!

True, but it was more than him getting beaten.

He was soft.

"Isn't bad" is an understatement.....he's a gun.....It'd be great to have him in a Saints jumper.

Cloke is their cream.... Never leads from the front, and if the pies top 5/6 players are beaten, he will have a sh1t day...

However, if Burns and Pendles get ontop, he will become and issues, and may kick 1 goal 5 behinds...

We complain about Roo's poor kicking.. This guy is seriously flawed with his feet....

*As you can probably tell, I really dont rate this guy as a top liner... Forward line version of Jason Blake, and thats with no disrespect to Jas, but Cloke is massively hyped up....

Travis is easily the best of the Clokes - a seriously good player. Strong mark and a long, albeit inconsistent kick. Not as bad as Buddy tho. If he is out or plays sick - big boost to us I reckon.


I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

If it's glandular, then he ain't playing that's for sure.

I heard the training report before, AND if I heard correctly he is training, and strongly.

If we're worried about 1 player in a weakened Pies side (less Shaw & Didak) then we need to forget about the result on Saturday because we won't be getting over the Hawks the following week. I hope we crush the mongrels on Saturday!


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

skipper scott burns says he is 100% to play and says cloke will start but there is some concerns over his recent illness...

apparently this was Gosher Park (???), with eddie there revving up the crowd present and signing autographs.


just heard on SEN

i nod off everytime andrew maher opens his mouth about anything.

geez you'd think carlton are in the top 4 and playing this week with every 2nd comment he makes involves carlton.

he's taking the "6 degree's of separation" thingy just a little too far.

Think it's Gosch's Paddock and wouldn't need any helicopters today as from vision I've seen previously of training, I don't even think it has fences!!

It's also the new home of our forum games....has fences but impossible to stop access from anywhere, very very good surface for when we belt a few forums this summer.

If Cloke has had a virus...he will be lacking energy and stamina.

Whomever picks him up must be told to run off him as much as possible to make him run about and tire him out.
