If we are going to spend big bucks on a high profile footballer and are prepared to wait twelve months could this man be the key to the premiership puzzle Huge fan of Cronk Can't remember him missing too many games at all and would be the perfect foil for Marshall . Great kicking game which we have missed since Prince left . I don't know if he would be in any rush to leave the Storm ,but if the price is right … Who knows Anyone else agree ???
 
Dunno about the price being right….it WILL be high though.
Gotta watch these QLDers though...they run off.
Luke Walsh?
 
Cronk would be a great signing.
Him and Marshall in the halves sounds like the greatest halves combination our team has has in a long time.

If Miller is the Tigers future why has the club not signed him yet ?? Please don't try to compare Miller to Cronk in any way shape or form Rambo
 
I think based on the price they would probably go for and fitting them all into the cap I would go for Luke Walsh before Cooper Cronk if I was the Tigers - paying that much for a hal when you already have Benji would mean dumping another 2 or 3 classy first graders and replacing them with juniors or journeymen and he would be somewhat wast5ed as our halfback plays third fiddle to Robbie and Benji anyway
 
Was at the game on Friday evening and a couple seated in front of me in the Ken Thornett stand were Tigers supporters and I had a brief chat to them from time to time throughout the match.

This guy seemed positive that Cronk was to be our new number 7 as of next season. Obviously I laughed and told him outrageous his claim was :laughing: (If you're reading this mate, you're alright! :wink: )

If we were to have him we'd surely be expecting Schubert to come guns blazing at Concord!

Blair/Cronk/Dugan? Ha! + Benji, Farah, Tuqiri alone would rocket us past our cap! Without a doubt….

100% right, we need power and impact. People complain about our kicking game, its poor because we have so little yardage in our defensive sets so we are forced to kick defensively from the back half of our territory.

We need a lot more power in the pigs and some real speed out wide. This so called clean out could be a blessing
 
Cronk = Marshall imo. Also I don't see how signing Cronk is outside the realms of the imagination.

The Storm aren't over the cap and they have Slater, Cronk and Smith. I'd rather Cronk than Dugan.
 
Cronk will stay at melbourne. Seriously how many real high profile footballers do they have now? Smith, Cronk, Slater…noone else would be on significant large coin. Cronk will stay at melbourne for less I feel too.

And as said , in terms of value , luke walsh would be a much better signing. Youd probably have to pay walsh 220 or so and probably have to pay cronk 550.

Walsh is worth at a minimum 300k, all established halves command these dollars…

Until Miller steps in and proves himself we don't have halves. Lui has got to go, so as far as I'm concerned the halfback spot is vacant.
We have finishers in Lote, Lawrence and Ayshford. Getting a fullback would be good but filling the No. 7 jersey with a player of even medium competence should be the top priority. In this sense Cronk would be incredible…but we will never get him.

He's had enough time. One year is enough (incl last year).
How long do we wait? Let's cut our losses.
