I can see why Treloar and Dunkley became so close around their love of American sports and how professional they both were off field.
That, a perception he's overpaid and probably him still talking about how much he loves Collingwood a year after he was tossed out seemed to all contribute.
He's a very good player though can't complain about having him and 600k a year is a great price given his output (though injury probably evens things out a bit)

Big Tom with 3 clubs and 56 games across 12 consecutive years (and counting) is bonafide eker royalty.

If it ain't on the official RJ eker thread it don't count...

At least that's a real thread.
Re: Treloar joins exclusive club
Agree with sentiments that he is a thorough professional at training and during matches etc. I call him silk as he a notch above most in our team and is unselfish/a real team player.
I too hope he plays a lot more with us and reached 100 games.
Hasn?t kicked too many goals on the run recently- I wonder if he is protecting his hamstrings or perhaps he is just playing the team game attempting to give off to another player in a better position.
I didn?t realise how good he was in close, worth watching with binoculars to see just how good he is. One of my current faves.

Certain starter that is impressive. One of our own, Stuart Wigney, played at 4 clubs for 72 games. Decent effort.

A bit better than "very good". His ability to put space between himself and pursuers reminds me a bit, just a bit, of Cooney. Another couple of seasons, playing finals, and young speedster Treloars join the long line.
Re: Treloar joins exclusive club
Treloar's a gun. So underrated.

Yep those Hammy's are holding him back he rarely lets go, yet he has still managed to be a very effective player of us.
