2025 List Management Thread

[Mofra]

I guess the difference with Treloar is that he has had significant soft tissue injuries in the past that he has overcome and clearly they were not age related. That and he hasn't been run over by any golf carts that I am aware of.

Whether this time has just been bad luck or age catching up is a question for the medicos I suppose.

I think Treloar is quite the positive mentor for young players too and he'd be worth keeping on the list for one more year for that alone.

Johnno seemed impervious to the effect of time until he got that first calf injury. I'm expecting nothing from Treloar next year

[doggies ftw]

Or just being realistic to the point that the game moves fast and whilst Treloar had a terrific 2024, he's had about 5 calf injuries since he's played a meaningful game.

I love Adam's story, but it's time to move on if we are to improve as a team.

Is there really any downside to carrying Treloar on the list next year? I can find 5+ players pretty quickly who I’d prefer to cut. If Treloar only plays 10 games and helps set standards and develop some of the kids (ie has a great relationship with Sanders) is that really worth nothing? Hell to be honest even if he plays 0 games he’d still offer more than some others on the list.

I just don’t see an issue here, there’s more chance of Treloar getting his body right and playing some good footy next year than there is of Poulter not being scared of his own shadow, or Coffield outrunning a tree. Plenty of options to cut first

Jenkins clearly forgetting how good Treloar was just 12 months ago

While its not an exact science our medical team should know if Treloar can get through another season.

Remember Jenkins is more known for causing the commentary term change of Joe the goose to Josh the goose.

[Mitcha]

Josh Jenkins is even less relevant than Cornes. Have no interest in eithers opinion on anything.

Can't stand that Josh Jenkins

Code sports are saying we are working with Treloar on a contract. I'm hoping that gets done

Adam Treloar is on the verge of signing a new one-year deal with the Dogs in coming weeks in a move sure to thrill club supporters given his popularity as a 2024 All Australian.

Treloar will play in the VFL preliminary final against Box Hill this weekend after being overlooked for the round 24 AFL clash against Fremantle given his injury concerns.

Talks have been progressing in recent weeks and while the Dogs have yet to lock him away if he can get through the final unscathed he is set to play on next year.

He tore his calf six times this season and every time he believed he was on top of his injury he suffered a recurrence.

But after 40 possessions in 80 minutes in his first VFL game he followed it up with 35 possessions in the qualifying final win over Frankston.

The Dogs on Monday missed out on trade target Neil Erasmus when he signed a three-year deal at the Dockers.

But all signs point to a positive resolution for the Dogs on Treloar, who are still to make decisions on the futures of Jason Johannisen and Liam Jones.

Treloar spoke on his podcast recently about how football had always been a saviour for him through a childhood where his mother worked hard to provide for him.

“Footy has always been my saving grace. It’s got me out of a life of poverty growing up.

“It’s given me an opportunity to set up my family, meet great people, have great experiences in my life I don’t think I ever would have had and that’s all been thanks to footy.

“To still be as passionate as I am and to still love the game like I do and want to be out there with my teammates and have success with them, to not be out there for reasons you don’t know why …. I don’t know why. I do everything right. I do everything possible for my body. That is where it really hurts me.”

Former Adelaide and Geelong player Josh Jenkins said last week he would not offer Treloar a new deal.

I wouldn’t,” Jenkins said on SEN.

“They are not winning a premiership on the back of Treloar being in or out of the team. No chance. You’ve got to find out about (Ryley) Sanders around the ball. You’ve got to give (Joel) Freijah the opportunity. He’s still playing out on the wing, he’s going to be an inside mid. Treloar just gets in the way.”

I suspect we will trade for around 3 experienced players and yes we will likely lose Khamis and we should lose Ugle-Hagan.
After some rookie upgrades we will only open up enough spots to draft 2 or 3 players.

2-3 makes sense with the “weaker” draft expected, we only have picks 10 & 28 currently, if we walk into the draft with our 1st, I still think we can grab someone to play as much as Hynes did this year.

then I assume just some other talent and then Will Darcy as a F/S

[GVGjr]

With 7 possible delistings,

I would expect 2-3 get delisted, while we likely lose Khamis in a trade and I assume JUH comes off our list as well?

so leaves us at 38 list spots.
