I don't mind where he goes, as long as it's not Richmond. Adding Treloar to their midfield will probably give them that last bit of oomph they need to make it into the top 4 next season and be a serious contender. Please no.

He's going to the Pies, it's been a done deal for weeks. Forget the peripheral nonsense about Richmond or... heh, Carlton.

They're even less attractive than us. Good luck, Bolton! He might land a Vince/Cross/Tyson type during his honeymoon draft but he'll struggle beyond that.

The Pies were the club pushing hardest to trade future draft picks, so it's no surprise this was on the cards.

They know that Treloar added to their midfield equals finals, thus trading their first rounder for 2016 is no loss (if it's between pick 14-18)

Robbo on 360 just mentioned that we are right into Treloar and have offered obviously a bit of cash.

But going by the way Buckley was reacting id say he was Collingwood bound.

Well we couldn't have auditioned for him better than we did yesterday. What midfielder wouldn't want to kick the ball to Hogan for the next decade? :)

But I agree, I don't think he will end up anywhere else but Collingwood.

I think the Hawks will get one of Treloar or Danger. I don't think money is as a if an issue as others make out.

Sorry to put you on the spot dazzle, but can you give a short run down of what was said re: Treloar? Didn't get a chance to watch it. Cheers.

Well Robbo mentioned that we were obviously into Treloar and have offered a bit of money to him along with 3 other clubs.

When he tried to bait Bucks he played a pretty straight bat. Kept pestering whether Treloar had told Collingwood he wants to come and all Bucks said was he is still a GWS player and we (collingwood) are still going through our season with the exit interviews. Buckley just simply would not budge at all.

Cheers mate.

I suppose Bucks can't do more than that at the minute. Until Treloar says he wants out and nominates his destination it would be unprofessional to say more than he did. Nice to know we are at least having a crack at Treloar as well, although I feel we aren't really in contention for him.

He avoided answering the question like the plague.

If Bucks reaction is anything to go by Treloar is off to Collingwood.

Things can move pretty quickly in the player exchange market.

A week ago the Tiges were right in it as they were prepared to offer GWS 1st round picks from this year and next. Collingwood reportedly were thinking they could get away with using only their 1st rounder.

GWS want to encourage a bidding war, and we hold decent trading chips. They'd want us (along with St Kilda, Essendon and Carlton) involved in trade talks.

The Bulldogs weren't Tom Boyd's first preference, but they offered the best, most immediate path back to Victoria. Can't remember if Pickering's his manager, but he was obviously advised that the deal was too good to knock back.

All our recruiting team can do is put ourselves in the mix, offer him the best possible deal and see what happens.

The amusing part will be how Collingwood will try and justify Treloar's value after their Beam's tantrums last year.

Right back atcha Eddie.

It's the only time I've been remotely tempted to say GO Giants

I agree but I think someone's already mentioned two first rounders. This years and nexts.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
