As soon as the final siren sounds in the GWS match tomorrow, I want Treloar to come out and make his intentions known.

Am I expecting too much?
I'd love to see him get cryptic with it all and respond to an interview like

"my contract has been black and white from the beginning that I would wait until the end if the year"

Or "it's a giant opportunity to win a flag"

Maybe even "might visit Africa and go on a safari tiger adventure in the off season"

Unfortunately this site does not give the option to one third like.

So your first option gets :thumbsu:

Options two and three get :thumbsdown:

By 2017-2018 Grundy will be 23-24 and one of the best ruckman league wide if his development trend continues whereas Kruezer will be a ball and chain monetary investment. I'll begrudgingly accept suggestions of Witts being traded, but not to bring in Kruezer its a quick fix when one isn't required...
I would flip. I haven't really cared a huge amount about any of our previous trades/free agency pick-ups, even the ones that have failed, but picking up Kreuzer would firmly keep us away from ever making a premiership with this side IMO from the salary-cap setback alone.

'The Scout' is a poster on Extreme Black And White. Works for the club. If it is him who posted this and 'locked' refers to coming to us, fairly safe to say it is happening. Won't firm up downstairs until Treloar himself commits to us.

Add that to the we don't ******* need him factor.

As he's a wrestling fan, when the siren goes I'd like to see him rip his shirt off, revealing the black and white stripes underneath, complete with sleeve tattoos.

Would lose all faith if we trade out Witts and bring in Kreuzer.

Also not all that concerned if fail to land Treloar or anyone else this trade period. Looks like we will have a decent draft pick so happy to keep building via the draft.

What other teams?
I'm not concerned about whether we get Treloar, (reckon we will know in 7 days time).
It's more about what we have to give up.
It will take years to find out won't it how those picks will develop. All we can wait and see is how those players are after a few years but you would think that they won't be like Treloar in that 2-3 year time period.

Although Moore will be a plus for us within 3yrs, we need another FWD to make White the 3rd Fwd as he was when he palyed his best season in Sydney .
Getting Treloar is great adding ish even better, BUT as we have seen most of the year its no good getting the ball if your going to bomb it into the FWD 50 and watching 3 defenders climb all over Cloke . We need another FWD that takes the heat from Cloke Refer to 2010 If Cloke didnt get you Dawes or Brown did. We rob peter to pay paul with Reid, leave him down back . Moore will be great tall, mobile, good mark, lets not kill him by making him the second option.

Treloar, Aish and Key FWDs.

Hale Roughy Gunston
Tippet Buddy Sookylala
Petrie Waite Brown
Kennedy Darling LeCras
Walker Jenkins

Make Cloke an option not the target.

Is there any other teams?
Doesn't the players history come into it as well? ie BnF finishes, All Australian selections etc. I don't think the cash is the only factor
Who really knows. The AFL seem to make it up on the fly most of the time.

According to Jay Clark in todays HSun it is just the age of player and contract value.

No way they'd ever get pick 2 for Kruezer. How'd you come up with that?? Hawks got pick 19 for Franklin when he got a $10mill offer from Sydney. Anyway, at the very least we should make him a big offer so they do have to match it!!! If they do it messes up their cap and if they don't we get him for nothing and can trade out Witts. All this talk about trading out Witts on this board ... Am I the only one who see a problem with a ruck list reading Grundy and Cox (rookie)?... this'd be the only way it could work imo unless we want to significantly weaken our backup ruck stock which we've finally now got in decent shape.
Melbourne got #3 for Frawley.

I reckon these medium forwards are pretty important players and I'd like to see us go left field and try and get James Sicily. Bloody hard for him to get in that side. Impresses every time he plays.
Big fan of Sicily since the VFL GF last year.
Has some serious talent.

I'd hope we've at least made contact.
