No doubt there are a number of guys who want more midfield time but with Treloar likely gone and the changes to the sub rule there will certainly be more chances next year.

Lol Tomlinson is an extremely low flight risk. Keeps re-signing early and has always been very vocal about staying.

I used to his mum a lot around Melbourne.
She said he loves the club she says she loves the club.
She drives around with a GWS Membership bumper sticker. She's on board!!

Anyone else think that maybe the club rates Ahearn ahead of Treloar?

I think Tomlinson plays his best when he is in defence
I suppose if his team mates keep smacking him around he might want to leave - didn't stop him smacking Carlton around later on though....

Breath and have a beer
Tommo has had a messed up year with the toe injury.
When he is good he is an impossible match up but sometimes he seems a bit of a jack of all trades master of nothing. In such a tall team he often doesn't get to play where he needs too.
I like him and think he has the potential to be very good but he needs more time and patience.
Calling for him to be traded and a flog is really harsh.

Somewhat.
And the missus cooked a kick ass Spag Bol.
That's comfort food deluxe.
I thought Tommo did a great job on Roo when he returned from injury. He can be very effective in defence. With the prevalence of tall and highly mobile forwards, this should be his main role. If he'd matched his performance on Roo with a shut down of Hogan today, that might of made a difference today.

Hi guys/gals. Just here for some insight into Tomlinson.
I know the OP warned off opposition supporters trying to 'raid' Tomlinson, but I come in peace.
There are rumours (I know, there's always rumours) that he may want out and that Carlton are looking to trade him in. I fully understand that he is contracted and unlike most of BF, I am not here to low-ball. I just have a few questions.
1) What would value him at in a trade? I assume you would want picks to help you cover Hopper/Kennedy f/s bids. Would something like pick 15 do the trick? If not, what do you think is fair? I assume you would also settle for lower picks that have similar f/s bidding power...
2) I know he is a good size and can run, but what else is there? Does he run to the right spots? Does he have a competitive spirit? Hows his body work, contested marking etc?
3) Following on from Q2, is he best played at CHB or CHF?

Answer works for all Clubs, not just Carlton
1) First round definitely - he's in top 25 in the club and contracted and required. He's not steak knives or settle for low picks
2) competitive but kicking needs to improve. He wore Reiwoldt like a glove when we played St Kilda in Sydney but marred the performance with turnovers
3) Wing and swing
