    I’ve never done it before, ever. But I’m going to send in a message of support to the club to give to him (assuming they want to hand it over).

    He's just a really genuine, likeable guy. I was elated when the news came through that we got him, not just because he's an electric player on the field, but you just knew he'd fit our group so well and he has.

    Can't wait to see him back!

    When he was with Collingwood, I didn't like him much, but didn't know much about him. Then he appeared on AFL360 in 2019 and there was one particular show when he opened up about his life, and I really admired what he had achieved after coming from a humble background.

    I was over the moon when listening to the trades last year and the last minute grab by Power.

    I hope he is back soon and makes a real impact in the finals.

    That's untrue and I can't believe you'd say that.

    Buckley said no-one trusted him and his teammates wanted him gone.

    There's a heel turn coming I'm sure.

    PS I love you Adam.

    Jeez he's so open and honest.
    The Treloar trade is one of the luckiest breaks we've ever had as a club.

    Great idea - maybe all us Woofers should swamp the club with messages of support? He's a player that would be positively impacted by it. Where should we send it?

    Re: Watch This.

    Really enjoyed watching that clip - with all that has gone beforehand for him (including the Collingwood transfer), I believe the Bulldogs were his best destination given our 'care' factor from the coach down to the playing group.

    Hope he starts to see better days ahead both personally and professionally.
    Anyone can support a team that is winning, it takes no courage. But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you, that takes a lot of courage, so lets always be behind our boys and girls in red, white and blue.

    Was so obvious wasn’t it when every single one of their players bee lined to hug him after round 1.

    Lucky for the pies they’ve got such quality decision makers in Adam Guy and Bucks…..oh wait
