    Did you see Eddie today talking about Cloke, went off his head of any suggestions that he would leave Collingwood.
    Like to see a little more passion with our club, they seem to be meek.
    Mind you Eddie making the " Hacking scandal " remark was way over the top!

Does anyone here believe that we will get anywhere near what we could get in a trade as compensation if he went as a free agent? The so called formula will not take into account that clubs are prepared to pay well over for an established decent number one ruck
      Is he restricted or unrestricted though?
      The curse is dead.

        He made the exact same point in a recent article. The Swans never developed rucks under his tenure and always traded for them. They take too long to develop, in his view.

          Agree, it's poor form to blow off a comment of "whatever happens, happens!". Just how unprofessional do we sound?
