UPDATE: COLLINGWOOD forward Travis Cloke has escaped a fine for parking in chief executive Gary Pert's car space at the Westpac Centre.

In a twist to the bizarre saga, Cloke will instead serve volunteer nightshifts at the Salvation Army.

He met with Pert today to discuss the incident and expressed remorse.

The club agreed to suspend his $1000 fine in exchange for the community service.

Cloke was surprised that the issue had become public and admitted to being in the wrong.

Car parks outside the club's training base at the Westpac Centre on busy Swan St are in short supply and Cloke has reportedly been warned about parking in the spot reserved for Pert more than once.

The 2010 premiership player had been parking in Pert's spot on and off for more than a year.

The AFL Players' Association is not amused.

"It sounds like a ludicrous situation," an AFLPA spokesperson said.

"We can only assume there has been some kind of confusion - clearly the AFL players' code of conduct makes no reference to players being sanctioned for parking in an executive's car space."

Cloke signed a new five-year deal with the Magpies late last year following a long year of negotiations.

Many believed the contract situation affected his form last year, a claim Cloke has since denied.

It is the second time in a week Collingwood has fined a player for deeds away from the field.

Brownlow Medallist Dane Swane was fined for taking part, without the club's permission, a television interview in which he addressed rumours about alleged drug use.
