If this story is correct then Collingwood have managed to take it to the next level.

I can see it from 5 sides, Adams, his partners, their new baby's, Collingswood's and any potential suitor for Adams services.

And there is a lot of money involved, so when you throw that all into the mix, Adam is in a bind.

I think out of all those parties ... Adam is in the least of a bind. He's going to get his money come hell or high water - whether it's all from Collingwood or some from them and most from someone else. His worst case is that he ends up with tons of cash but not playing at Collingwood. Not one part of this is his fault - he's also got the public sentiment pulling hard his way.

Ok. The Treloar situation is starting to get interesting.

Both Queensland clubs have passed on him. Clearly the filth don't want him.

Are we now in the market for him? Would we want him? Could we afford him if the filth pay part of his salary? Would he add something to our list?

These are questions worth asking in my view, now that the Suns and Lions are no longer suitors.

The opportunity for a club to screw Collingwood to the wall could be looming

[SaintJohno]

Would you rate Treloar over Crouch? If so, offer Crouch what we want to pay him (600K) giving Adelaide a shite compensation. They either take it or not. If he stays at Adelaide, no probs, we go for Treloar and the Pies pay for some of his wage. Maybe Adelaide baulk and are forced to take what they can get for him and we get both.

Feck yeah. Screw them for everything they've got. Eddie and his Kents deserve to be punished.

Clearly the filth don't want TO PAY HIM HIS CONTRACT.
Quite reasonably he refuses to allow Collingwood to rip him off by halving his back ended contract.
Surely he understands that Collingwood only promised to pay him the big bucks later to get him to move to Collingwood in the first place.
Collingwood never intended to pay the consequences of a rear ended contract.
I wonder why Collingwood are known as the FILTH.

You are right in that both clubs are trying to shove the player out the door but I think the motives are different.
Adelaide are salivating at the prospect of pick No 2 and if they get it will not want any picks.
Collingwood just want to dump a player because they have massive salary cap problems.
They would want our first round pick, next years first round pick and more.

This is all dreamy stuff right now but if we were to land him I think I'd go nude for a week.

As I say it's a humungous IF and it is dreamy, BUT if we allow ourselves to dream for a very small moment, can you imagine how good our midfield is looking with Adam in it.

I'm standing ready to nude up.

On a side note...where does the cabbage come from for a comp that is about to enter it's most significant economic correction in the history of the comp, and for a club that will be in debt well in excess of $12 million dollars by the time the anual accounts are processed. And we still haven't solved the small issue of where does the revenue come from.

Eddie refuses to discuss Treloar. Weak as piss Eddie when its your clubs turn.

What does our revenue have to do with the salary cap?

[CURLY]

Collingwood want him out theres no way a clubs giving them market value in a trade. It will be very much in the favor of the club taking them now Collingwood have declared their hand.

The whole "hard to coach" thing with Treloar is such an indictment on Buckley and Collingwood's coaching staff. That's on them, not the player. Good coaching works towards a player's strength. It doesn't cut the player when things get hard, especially when you've invested so much time and money into said player.

If you can't get the best out of a player who's as talented as Treloar, then you're kidding yourself as a coach.

It's different when a player is outwardly disregarding club rules and culture. Then trade them, by all means. But as far as I can tell, Treloar is fully engaged and loves Collingwood. Surely the club can work with that.

There's a stench of death emanating out of Collingwood and I love it.

It's really painted the club into a corner that is a no win situation potentially. If they work it that Treloar stays you'd have to think he'd hold on to some magnitude of resentment. I'm still scratching my head as to which side leaked the "hard to coach" claim and why. I'm not ruling out Treloar was the leaker to his colleagues and friends at Fox footy. If he didn't leak then does he have issue with said colleagues and friends.

Ah...the stench.

But I would be excited if Treloar comes to us, despite the hammies. If he plays 12 games, we’d be a better team for it.

[asiu]

whats Bangers role in this then ?

[shanegrambeau]

whats Bangers role in this then ?

Well have Banger and Treloar. Take em both.

[asiu]

bring the midfield coach AND
the guy whose difficult to ... ummmm , coach

[saintsRrising]

Well have Banger and Treloar. Take em both.

Maybe they do not get on.

[skeptic]

So not as active as last year...

Just the three additions: Crouch, Treloar and Higgins and we lose Dunstan, Webster, and Lonie. What a great off-season it’s shaping up to be.

May as well give us the cup in April
