Speculation - "In the end, I reckon Treloar probably wanted to go to Richmond if given the choice, but Collingwood maybe just offered more money than we could"

(Apparent) Fact - "In the end, Treloar wanted to come to Richmond but at the last minute changed his mind because reasons"

As I'm reading my post, I realise I'm getting into semantics, but given the response to my initial post was exactly about that, I'd be remiss in not pointing this out.
Can you piss off?

He'd be our best player.
Really? Serious question. I've been on the Collingwood board asking questions about Treloar myself because I've never really seen or noticed enough of him to know whether he's worth what we're oging ot have to give up to get him, but Richmond's best player?

Honestly? That's...a fairly substantial call.

He would be up there.

Selective recent history. Go back another 2 years and you'll see a Collingwood premiership. Instead of the 35 you have to go back for yours - that's not recent history.

Not trying to stir you up, but that's just fact - and I assume you are expecting me to accept my right of reply since you quoted me.
If your posting is now just shit talking about our past, I suggest it may be time to leave this board

Crying? Pointing some of the sheer insanity being posted is crying? My initial post that sparked all this "melodrama" was nothing more than pointing out speculation being posted as fact.

That, for some reason unbeknownst to me, rustled some jimmies. No idea why.

the only fact we have to go on, is that Treloar nominated Collingwood as his destination of choice. Outside of that, we have Damian Barrett on the Footy Show back in April, "leaking" that Collingwood are making a huge play for Treloar. Anything in between is pure guess work/rumour/speculation.
Dude, your not discussing anything, your just lecturing. Next post I'm reporting it, because you have completely derailed this thread

Blow it out your poo hole - this is "Trade and Free Agency Discussion" - Treloar is very much a part of that and how he relates to Richmond - Treloar news is the prime reason I come here.
Lol if that's the only reason you come here you must be a treloar yourself (Treloar greek word for crazy) :p

I don't think he'd be our best player, but he'd be top 3-5 i'd say.

They are on topic and talking civilly. If you don't like what they say - skip it. Others (me) like to hear what the others have to say about Mr Treloar.
So stop acting like a self-appointed, quasi-mod policeman - cos here's the tip - you aint.[/QUOTE]

You've added exactly zero to this thread apart from attacking posters. I don't give a shit how long you've been here. There's a thread dedicated to Treloar on the draft board. Again, because you seem to be a bit dense, this is the Richmond board, not the Collingwood/Richmond Treloar board. Run along now.

Fair enough. Speaks volumes about the quality of Treloar I guess. Anytime I got around to watching a GWS game, I noticed Shiel for more myself, but hey, sounds like Treloar is pretty handy himself.

Why are you guys into Yarran, Bennell and Stevy J? You guys lost the contested possession by 33 on the weekend and those 3 players don't even know what a contested possession is. You should go hard at Jack Redden, Contested possession/tackling/clearance beast. Would fit the Tigers well I would have thought.
Over the course of the season, contested ball wasn't as much of an issue as outside pace/need for a small forward. We consistently had Miles, Cotch & Ivvy doing really good grunt work, it just didn't happen on Sunday.

That said, no reason we can't get both inside & outside talent.

As far as I know, they're not meant to. But I'm not sure if that rule is nullified when names are removed.
They're straight copying and pasting, no linked quotes. They must be scared of us stealing your prize. I'll expect this will be copied over there aswell.

Shiel is also an excellent player, and I believe he was our first target earlier in the year until he re-signed. But that said, Treloar is definitely quality, and he's consistent. Could see him picking up a brownlow somewhere down the track.

Apparently on SEN - we've offered 2 first rounders AND Ben Griffiths for Treloar.
If last fridays selection showed us anything then that is Griffiths is held in very high regard by our coaches so with that in mind I think its clear to see that the proposed trade is complete bullshit.

Not that he is untouchable of course but unless we get an offer to good to turn down then Griffiths won't be going anywhere.

If this treloar is so good how come gws weren't in a hurry to sign him, in fact the list manager came out and said we signed all the stars we wanted to keep and well have a look at treloar now and see what we can do?

I don't know, I'm just stating my opinion from watching GWS games - I don't pretend to have any idea about the inner goings on at clubs. They have a lot of impressive players and will be a dangerous team in years to come.

If you disagree, that's cool - I don't mind, just reporting my thoughts on Treloar to someone that asked.
