The Collingwood forward joins the reigning premiers in a swap for Pick 76.

The 29-year-old will be on about half his former wage of $400,000 a year.

Cloke helped the Magpies to the 2010 AFL Premiership, won the club’s best and fairest award in 2007 and is a two-time All Australian.

“Acquiring another key forward was a focus for us and Travis fits that bill," Bulldogs list manager Jason McCartney said. 

“We’ve tracked Travis closely and believe has a lot to offer with his endurance and contested marking ability, and will fit well within our current group of forwards.

“We’re really pleased to have secured Travis and look forward to his contribution next season.”

He kicked 441 goals in 246 games for Collingwood.
