^ I have no problem with any of our players leaving if that's what they really want to do for reasons A, B or C.
I wish them well & bid them farewell, however if they're dead set thinking about leaving, just do so & stop flouncing.

I just want to know if we are ever going to see those line-breaking runs from him, which were curtailed the moment he sustained that injury against the Carlton kunts in 2018?

| On Footy 360 recently he said that the doctors told him it would take a full 18 months for him to be completely over that injury, so hopefully next year he'll be 100 per cent! |

So Adam. You have been a very good footballer in what has been 9 years in the system. You came to the Pies on big money and for what turned out to be two first round draft picks (both pick 7's in 2015 and 2016). Essentially Adam, we gave up either:
* 2015: Charlie Curnow or Jacob Hopper or Eric Hipwood
* 2016: Jye Simpkin or Jarrod Berry or H Perryman or Jordan Ridley
We embark on Optus Stadium Saturday night rank underdogs, undermanned and unlikely. Not dissimilar to a Buxless Pies in 2002 against Port Adelaide. What was significant that night? Well a certain other traded in player rode his name into Magpie folklore with a 40 possession leviathan effort that got us over the line.
Adam you are faster and more skilled than Paul Licuria. But do you have the inner fortitude to frank your recruitment with a similar performance. You love being on media street, you love sharing your inner emotional torment and love securing occasional inconsequential possessions with questionable look-away handballs to the opposition.
Adam. You are a vexed player on our list with 50% of Nick's fans loving you and 50% believing your recruitment was a bust. Finals football separates the good from the great. We may not go far this year but you may have a distinct role in determining whether we do or not.
Over to you.

| It's not his fault the club paid a fortune for him. If you disapprove, blame the club's list management guys. |

| Hamstrings say hello. Since coming back from injury he’s been playing good footy. Not sure what else you want? |

| Doing some actual damage with ball in hand more than once a fortnight would probably be good, for a midfield runner on his money. You don't give up two early first-round picks and a 6-year deal on his salary for someone who accumulates possessions and handballs backwards a lot. |

He was the player you want him to be when we gave up two first round picks. He hasn’t been the same since his double hammies and expecting him to be is unrealistic. His best now is as good as he gets. |

Desperate situations require desperate play. Treloar needs to forget about hamstrings and go flat out from the start. If he gets injured so be it but playing at half rat power won’t prevent an inevitable injury. Just go for broke Adam and give it your all. You playing well will lift the entire team. Go for it.

Was the post a tad too cerebral for you? Maybe read it again.

To be honest the club has wasted a LOT of picks in Bucks tenure to go for the short road instead of the long and steady road. We've also had some bad luck in the one year we didn't try that policy i.e. Schierenberg and Freeman

Richmond were prepared to pay the same price.

Although incessant handballing doesn't come as a result of dodgy hammies.
Bloke can't operate effectively in traffic, hence the panicked offloads and turnovers. Reckon he might sleep with the light on.
He doesn't have the A grade class of a Centre nor the hard edge to be a Ruck-Rover.
His role needs to be outside. A Wellingham, Caracella type. Caracella was a run and handball type but Treloar handballs at the twice rate of these two.
'tis why I questioned if he would be greater value if he dropped some kg's and tried the wing next year.
