Struggling to understand the point of view that we are paying overs for Trelaor.
A 22 yo future gun with elite numbers, inside outside, regular goal kicker, consistent, appears to love both our coach and captain. Not sure what else people want. When you trade for a player you aren't trading for a cartoon character. There isn't anyone in the AFL that leaps tall buildings and runs through walls and can run at the speed of sound. And yet there are people on here who constantly bemoan how we never can land a big fish. Trelaor will more than likely become one and we are looking to land him at the beginning of his career.
I DO understand the concern about spending two first round picks on a player and if Trelaor chooses us think we should negotiate hard to try for a better deal. The best scenario would be to avoid that situation or to part with our first rounders for a McCarthy or even Stewart as part of the deal. Our forward stocks are a concern and we need to bolster them.
