COLLINGWOOD players Nathan Brown and Tyson Goldsack have thrown their support behind teammate Travis Cloke, suggesting it is only a matter of time before he kicks a big bag of goals.

Cloke has kicked 14 goals and 11 behinds from his six games, including a five-goal haul against St Kilda in round three, but is yet to really grab a game by the scruff of the neck. 

His misses from close range have also been highly-publicised.

However, Brown – who is set to play his 100^th AFL game against Richmond on Sunday – said the Magpies players were in Cloke's corner. 

"We always back him in. He's been such a good player for us," Brown said on Friday.

"We have a lot of trust in him. 

"He's going to have poor kicking games every now and then, but in general we always back him. 

"He's not far away. He gets his hands on the ball a lot, so if he can kick straight and have a good game, look out." 

Goldsack told AFL.com.au that Cloke was doing a power of work at training as the forward looks to improve his accuracy in front of the big sticks. 

Cloke stayed back after Collingwood's training session on Tuesday to hone his set-shot kicking routine.

Goldsack said he was confident the wheel was about to turn for the key forward.

"We've got the people in line and Trav's doing the work on the field and on the track during the week, but it's just a matter of him kicking straight come game day," Goldsack said.

"That'll come and we have confidence in him to kick those goals." 

Brown has followed a tricky, and at times treacherous path, to reach his 100-game milestone.

The key defender missed almost the entire 2014 season with a serious shoulder injury restricting him to just three games. He also ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament in 2011, which wiped away that season. 

His defensive stopping role on St Kilda forward Nick Riewoldt in the 2010 Grand Final remains the high-point of his eight-year AFL career. 

Brown said he appreciated being out on the field even more given the injury battles he has endured.

"It's good to knock the first milestone over," Brown said. 

"I stopped counting games a long time ago and now it's just about making every game count."
