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

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

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

            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

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

                  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.
