Cloke pulled out of the two's on the weekend with a niggle

Ben Sinclair (concussion)
Taylor Adams (knee)
Travis Varcoe (hamstring)
Corey Gault (concussion)
Marley Williams (foot)
Tom Langdon (ankle)
Tyson Goldsack (thumb)
Jamie Elliott (back)
Jackson Ramsay (knee)
Matthew Scharenberg (knee)
Dane Swan (foot)
Question (2), who currently in the side will not be there for your next finals push?
Reason being, I think you've got about 10-12 players to "turn over" to get your list in shape, that takes 2-3 drafts and then it's 2-3 years after that when you're in a position to push again.
Clearly, clearly the top up spud approach of Richmond won't be the plan, surely?

TBH, the only one of that list I'd really like to see gone is Sinclair. I think he's a list-clogger. Bad with the ball.
I hope, and hope, that Swanny can get back. It's hard to judge Scharenberg, as he's always injured - but he's another one whose future is questionable.
Gault still has a long way to go, as a back-up big forward. I do wonder if he could turn into a utility, Leigh Brown-like, as he grows a bit more.
Cloke...I just don't know. It's interesting, though, that there's talk about Moore and how he's struggling a little due to delivery, but that wasn't an excuse allowed for Cloke. I'd like to see Cloke crashing the packs more. We don't have the big men to just trade him away, yet. Moore needs another year before we can do that.
I don't think our problem is so much with our list - everyone expected us to do something this year. I think our concern is ball use. We are so damned inefficient and have been for several years. Now, it's taking its toll and confidence and exertion are following in its footsteps.
We need to get our ball use right and attack on the ball/man.
I can't ever remember enjoying so little of a footy season. There's no enthusiasm from the players.

See I reckon the opposite .. Get him working hard and pushing up to the wings and then back to goal in space. Has a great pair of hands and his field kicking is generally much better than his goal-kicking, but the latter is usually better from 50m out than closer to goal anyway.

I was thinking because his form is so terrible and Collingwood cant hit the broad side of a barn with there goot skills that they bomb a few long and Cloke crunches a few packs. Bring the small forwards into the game a bit.
