Is there any other teams?
Not Gale on SEN related but the Tigers have moved on; trusted Pies poster Rusty Beam with inside Richmond info confirmed this last week.

They are into Yarran, Kruezer and even Bennell from media reports just to name a few. They have enough wheeling and dealing of their own to worry about.

The Treloar thing left them pretty jilted though and it seems that the Tiger media Mafia are just hellbent on stirring the pot and slinging mud to make sure we pay top dollar.

Even if Treloar backed off from Pies over GF job saga we are not the bad guys. He would either stay at GWS or go to Blues on big coin. He'd hardly go to the Tigers now after they appeared to be the ones who complained and brought it to the fore.

Good imagination champ. :)

Operation get Treloar on track. afl reminding all clubs to be good boys and girls. GWS will do the right thing by GWS.
Actually GWS will do what is best by the player...as all good clubs do otherwise no one would want to play with them.......

Wonder if the same guy will be doing the due diligence checks on Bennell as he did with Ben Cousins.

Also, where was there improvement overall this year compared to last season? Was it that they lost the EF by 17 points this year compared to 57 points the year before?

Listening to Brendan Gale this morning on radio he seemed resigned to Treloar going to the Pies. Said the reports of Richmond going to the AFL to complain were rubbish (they were reported in the HUN yesterday)

Yes ... Apparently they had been work with Treloars manager for some time and felt they were in. Strong position and were "surprised" with the decision Treloar made.

He is indirectly stirring the pot here and Richmond is clearly bitter about the whole situation.

Lol. We should call their bluff. Wait with negotiations. As long we don't finalise Treloar, Richmond can't use their top picks either for a trade. See how long they can hold out while other clubs are swooping in. And with that, GWS doesn't have much hold on us either. Other clubs aren't in the running apart from Carlton. Good luck if they think it is going to help them.

I don't disagree with what you say and in fact it is exactly what we should be striving to do. However if we indeed need to give up both years first rounders it is only one extra pick we are sacrificing where we don't get an extra player - probably at around pick 12 in 2016.
Yeah and i also think we still got unders for dayne beams. Typically pick 25 and a fringe player is pretty crap compensation.

The deal only looks good because we turned that into greenwood and jack crisp.

I still think beams was worth 2 first rounders.

Which is why im not against trading next years pick...or trying to trade for another top 20 pick this year to hand over with pick 7

To be honest id like Treloar wrapped up early first day of trade period

You know he's leaving said club, right? For extra cash.

No, GWS will want market level compensation for him; they won't simply take unders and wish him well because golly gee Adam is super nice.

You'll need to match or better our offer which is delicious.

Him nominating us changes things though.

We don't have to match Richmond because Richmond aren't in the equation yet.

We see if we can satisfy GWS first. If a suitable deal cant be reached towards the end of trade week, then GWS go to Adam to see if he'd be ok playing at another Melbourne club happy to offer better than Collingwood.

If Adam had never nominated a specific club, different ball game.

Ha ha ha. No we don't. We only need to get close because he in fact has chosen us. Why would we need to match, or laughably better, the compensation of a team he doesn't want to go to. It's the other way around.

Richmond need to better (and by a long long way) our offer for GWS to not deal with us and deal with you- he didn't pick you and therefore you need to come over the top with a deal that will set your club back a few years- not us.

Cliff notes please!
Surprised was the word of the day.

Surprise first at AT choosing the mighty Pies and surprise then at Caroline Wilthon's article inferring that Gale had approached the AFL.

They've moved on unless we decide to be campaigners at the trade table.
