Travis Cloke has reportedly accepted a multi-year offer to join the Western Bulldogs.
Fox Sports has reported that Cloke and the Bulldogs have agreed to terms on a two-year deal worth a smidgen of his current $800,000 per season wage.
Cloke was due to be paid around $450,000 by the Pies in 2017, with his current deal heavily front ended. However, at the Kennel, he will earn far less than that.
Collingwood could receive either a secondย to third round draft pick or could even request an opportunity starved player they feel may benefit from a fresh start in exchange for Cloke.
The Magpies are expected to be busy this trade period, with Daniel Wells and Lin Jong among the names linked with a move to the Holden Centre, while defender Nathan Brown has been touted as a possible target of the Kangaroos.
Straight swap Cloke for Jong….done deal. Cloke will be good for the Dogs…people forget he has hardly missed a game in 12 years of service to the pies…that’s almost unheard of for a guy 100kg plus…he will win some games for you guys next year do’nt worry…this is a feel good trade for all as Cloke will always be a premiership player for the pies and nearly won the 2011 grannie off his own boot in the first half…good luck Trav and thanks for outstanding service.
yeah and bevo wont hesitate in putting him in the reserves if his form wanes…
