Beautiful Reading ? 

Trelaor will be paid out, no other Club is going to touch that situation if they have an ounce of intelligence. 
This could stuff the Filth for years

The $100k offered each year by the Pies, is totally insignificant. If that is all they will pay, he is staying put.

With luck Mr. Leg, would love to see them stuck with his salary for next 4 years.

Treloar would be nice...! But too expensive and 28. We can spend money elsewhere and be smart about it...! 

I would like to see us put the time into Harmes to get back to his best! Because his best is very good. He can play a lockdown role on opposing teams best mid and win his own ball... And can push forward and kick a goal or two! 
 

We shouldn’t underestimate the list we already have! The cattle is there... it’s whether the coach can get his sh#t together! 

 

This is just a really really bad breakup and it just went wrong. 

The pies fans are filthy and want answers. 

Not sure where Adam will ended up but it will be odd if it's at another melbourne club. I mean the pies think he will not cope with his wife away but as he has said it's something they did discuss. 

Id have him.

Absolutely. They are passing on a complete meltdown to a club 1-2 years later

Much prefer that meltdown in black and white

Wouldn't have happened under Gary Pert's watch?

Exactly, if someone wants to take on the other 800k a year they have rocks in their heads...

 

I wonder if covid and its affect on salary caps is an issue too, preventing the contract from being restructured?

For example: maybe if they offload him Collingwood is prepared to pay more next year, but not in year 5, but Treloar may not want to "front end" his contract to 2021 in case we dont have crowds and salaries are halved again.

Think of it like the Jack Martin effect.

Harmes going into the midfield against Brisbane was instrumental to our late comeback in that game.

It is actually worse.

His last 3 years are reported at well over $1m each year.

That could be about $1.1m - $1.2m a year, for 3 last years of his contract at age 30-32. WOW! That is mind blowing.

For some reason 28 is considered ''old'' by many footy fans, especially Melb. supporters.

Shaun Burgoyne was 27 when he joined Hawthorn with a knee that was supposedly ''bone on bone''.  He's spent 11 years there.

But I sort of get it.  Melbourne players are usually cooked by the time they're 30.  What is it about the MFC ?

Unless Collingwood pay at least $250K they can keep Treloar.

the higher pick you give up, the more the filth should pay

give up a first rounder? pies should have a third of his salary going under their cap for the duration of the five years

the fact that they only want to pay $100k of the rumoured $900k for 2021 and NOTHING after that for the remaining four years is a joke

Apologise to the journo I said was a liver based on Nathan Buckley’s tweet denying why had been reported. What the hell is wrong with Collingwood, I hope it blows up in Nafan and Eddie’s face next season.

Two out of three ain't bad.

I'd love to know if we were ever interested in Treloar. Would have loved him, but anyway, it is what it is.

"The Magpies are playing hard-ball on the amount to which they will commit, and are taking the view that this is not their problem. 

It is believed the clubs are as far apart as $200,000 a year on at least one season of the five-season deal.”

So this is getting uglier by the minute. Thank god we didn't get involved in this deal. Also can't believe a deal can be signed off without the remuneration side of things sorted out.

Simple solution.

In law, where parties are not " ad Idem" or of" one mind", in other words where the terms of a contract are uncertain, it can where possible be set aside.

Therefore the Trade is declared void and Treloar returns to the Pies.

That threat, would bring a solution to the problem.

Player Agents and the Players Association must be furious with the Pies.


What a joke

Both clubs should be sanctioned by the AFL for failing to properly document the deal.

Player contracts aren't rocket science.

That seems like the appropriate outcome, but will the AFL have the guts to enforce something like that?

 

Hilarious. 

Player managers will be looking on with interest. Good luck pies signing any FA's over the next few years.

Sweet Jesus, what a rabble. They have lawyers And contracts for a reason. They extended Treloar LAST year. One of the worst handling of a player I can recall

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
