I don't think anyone is saying Cotchin is no good and that we don't need him. Far from it actually. I think some of us just feel he is a little overhyped.
For sure. I'm sure Richmond supporters would blast me for saying Gibbs is slightly better than CotchinWell we all tend to over hype some of our players too I guess
Christ can we stop talking about that Richmond prick with the perfect hair any time soon?
Maric has only been mentioned once or twice???

Please now find me the one or two posts which refer to Maric
Should work well with Maric and be a very good back up forever Maric is injured or needs a rest. Up forward Hampson is like a box of chocolates but he should work well with Riewoldt and Vickey/Mcbean taking the best defenders.
It's from a year and ~700 pages ago but it still counts, right?
also lol at Hampson actually being any good for Richmond
Trent Cotchin would walk into any club in the competition and instantly be in their top few players.
Laughable to suggest otherwise.
Spot on!
MS3, meet Treloar at my mate's wedding on Sunday. Very gracious and humble. His out of contract and loves Carlton, any chance we make a play for him?
Saw Treloar's name mentioned an awful lot in the official Trade thread (plus in 17 different threads that turned into unofficial trade threads).
He was put at the top of many posters' wishlists, above some genuine superstars. I was impressed and intrigued.
I don't watch many GWS games. What's the go? Stats tell me he gets hold of the ball an awful lot for a kid (has each of first three seasons) and has some good tackle and clearance numbers. But I hate relying on stats.
What's his game like, which players would you compare him to? What's his disposal like? How does he rank against other < 22yo midfielders?

I would probably take Jones over Cotchin simply because he would cost less, would have a similar impact where we need impact most (e.g. on the inside and leadership) and he tackles more.
A comparison between the two actually favors Jones in most of the important categories.
Reckon our 3rd rounder would get it done too ... hang on a minute ??

As a free agent he will only cost us $$$, less $$$ than Cotchin would.
Would grab Cotchin in a heartbeat, but wouldn't pay what it would take to pry him from the Tigers in a mad fit.
As for his disposal, I think back to Murphy carrying injury a couple of years ago and everyone jumping on his kicking being crap as though this was his level as a player. In 2012 Cotchin was using the ball just fine and it's clear to me he's had some issue with his leg that's affected him. Just my 2 cents.
