how are you doing it?

here's what i got in 5 mins. Trick is to make the soft bodies particles collide with the cylinder. Particles >> Make Collide

I've attached the scene file (it's for maya 06). You will have to play with it to get the collision stuff exactly right. There is a lot of intersecting of the plane with the pole at the moment (mainly because the pole is low poly and the plane has no thickness.)
