Hey peoples. First post here, be nice even though I'm a Vic. ;)
I was just wondering about Woodville West-Torrens player Leigh Treeby. I know his mother through the sport I play and she keeps going on like he's the next big thing. I've got a bit of a feeling her view may be biased.
My Dad became a trainer at Melbourne last season and Treeby did a pre season there a couple of years ago. Basically when my Dad asked around they said he had skills good enough to make him an AFL player but was way too slow. MFC may not be the most trustworthy group though given past trading/drafting blunders (constantly reminding my Dad that they had D.Jarman before Hawthorn even did) so I was just wondering what's the story with this bloke because I obviously don't get to catch a lot of SANFL action living in Melbourne.
 
Solid SANFL player nothing more.

He broke even with Martin Mattner in the Prelim final so therefore is no great shakes. Puts his body in and has a decent left foot kick but I doubt he can make it at AFL level.
 
Hey champ welcome to the board.... didn't actually know they made pricktorians with good taste but hey one comes along occasionally that surprises you ;)

Welcome mate! :D Yer he has talent, hard at it good body size, but really not quick enough for AFL. Fringe/back-up player nothing more really. Dont want him at crows but good luck to him if he somehow does get picked up.
 
Yes have watched him at SANFL level part of this year there was a battle between him and luke powell for selection in WWT side i think both have problems with kicking to team mates
The media on radio love him to death
