So KB's source sounds as if it was Gale!!
And Gale's source was KB!

I'm tipping the conversation went like this:

KB: Morning Brendan.
BG: Hi Kev.
KB: Hows the trade negotiations going?
BG: Not bad. I'm Adamant we'll go for some big....
KB: [cuts in] Adam? As in Treloar?
BG: What?
KB: I'm hearing from sources that we are big on Treloar!
BG: That's fantastic! Keep it quiet tho.
KB: No worries. Your secret's safe with me!
BG: Cool, we've got Treloar! Wait till I tell Caro!

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.
deNO...he has stated he wants to go to Collingwood. Any club will push for the best fd

NO....he has nominated Collingwood. He wants to play for us and not Richmond. As a club GWS will push hard for best deal and so they should. I would expect Collingwo0d to do the same, as we did last year with Beams. At the time we could have received a better deal from Gold Coast but Beams wasn't interested as he nominated Lions. Its the same situation here. He will be a Collingwood player for life and we will get the best deal done, but it wont be as good as the Richmond offer.

Do they even understand that by pushing this line they are not only accusing us of underhanded tactics, but AT and his management as well?

Unless they are claiming they are trying to 'save' him from Don Macguire.

How would they think this would make them appealing to them. Surely a sign they have in fact given up the ghost.

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.
LOL

Word. With all this time wev got to negotiate before I'd be surprised if it drags out longer than a couple of days
I hope so too but if the deal requires us obtaining picks from other clubs, who may have higher priorities, it could still drag on even if it is all agreed to in principal.

I think you misunderstood my post. I am very confident it will still happen but we may have to cool our jets for a few days whilst other deals get sorted first.

Run along now you 3 post troll. He rejected your club already.

There are no other teams.
So we've been rumoured to be into Treloar since last year.
Perhaps the Tiges were too.
We put in an offer & it sounds like we got the nod & the wink.
Tiges are into Shiel, possibly hedging bets with AT at the same time.
Shiel re-signs.
Tiges up their offer to AT & they get the nod & the wink.
We counter offer & get the nod & wink again.
Chooses us.
RFC bitch & moan.
RFC supporters bitch & moan coz we stole him??????:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

That's what happened, isn't it??

So EAD Tiges.

Its an interesting way to look at it but ultimately a flawed concept.

In the end, you trade based on a players value.

2 first round picks sounds excessive.

Based on the beams deal which was pick 5, 25 and fringe player, then i would say treloar is worth about the same.

That sais, Im not against trading next years first rounder, i just dont think you can do it based on your logic.

We need to do the best deal possible. Obviously, if we can manage to keep next years first rounder then it gives us other options to recruit a big name player or get another great kid next year.

I would expect the club is going to do all it can to try and hold onto that pick. But in the end, we are throwing the kitchen sink at treloar so i cant see the club letting the deal slip if thats what it takes to get it across the line.

If we are going to tradr next years pick, then i think it is essential we keep scharenberg and freeman. We cant just bleed first round picks
Agree - We might try and figure something out without giving that 2nd 1st round Pick but IF it comes down to that we will do. As you say DaVe86 we thrown everything at Treloar and we won’t let him Slip away.

Guess will depends on who we trade and what we get back for them
