Our priorities should be -I wouldn't trade Treacy in a straight swap for Logan McDonald, Treacy will have a big season this year IMO. I think the Jackson/Amiss/Treacy trio compliment each other really well. Let McDonald go to the Eagles or stay at the Swans, after giving up 2 early picks for Jackson throwing a couple more early picks and a million dollars at McDonald would be foolish.
Our priorities should be -
small forwards
mids with pace
Alex Pearce's future replacement
Luke Ryan's future replacement
a blue chip tall forward obviously.Our priorities should be -
small forwards - Simpson, Delean
mids with pace - Johnson, Sharp
Alex Pearce's future replacement - Murphy, Davies
Luke Ryan's future replacement - Draper
Now, what do we do with those 3x 1sts?
Treacy still has major question marks. Seriously going after Logan Mcdonald is a no brainer with 4 first round picks at our disposalI wouldn't trade Treacy in a straight swap for Logan McDonald, Treacy will have a big season this year IMO.

Could go and spend the capital elsewhere but realistically Collingwoods and Ports Picks are likely gonna be 13+. You’d expect Logan Mcdonald to likely have a better career than speculative picksI understand wanting to spend the capital elsewhere but if we were allowed to turn Treacy into McDonald then some GM over east is getting fired or Treacy has had one heck of a year
Some on here are seriously delusional about Treacy.I understand wanting to spend the capital elsewhere but if we were allowed to turn Treacy into McDonald then some GM over east is getting fired or Treacy has had one heck of a year
Seriously can’t agree with you more here!!! Treacy has been way overrated on this board. Dont get me wrong I like how he is developing but he aint nothing on Mcdonald right now.Some on here are seriously delusional about Treacy.
If we offered a first rounder AND Treacy for McDonald Sydney would laugh us out of town and rightly so. Outside of this board this suggestion would also be laughed which should tell people all they need to know.
McDonald is an absolute gun and anyone who says otherwise actually needs to watch him play.
I'd rather him stay at Sydney then go to WC. Allen and McDonald would be a serious combo!I wouldn't trade Treacy in a straight swap for Logan McDonald, Treacy will have a big season this year IMO.

And West Coast fans think exactly the same about Amiss and McDonald!I'd rather him stay at Sydney then go to WC. Allen and McDonald would be a serious combo!
The biggest limiter for Treacy is his touch, which in my opinion, you either have by this age or you don’t. Look at the wraps on Cooper Simpson, a large part because of how he doesn’t seem to fumble. Treacy fumbles, quite a bit.Let’s wait the year and see if that’s the case by the end of the year.

I guess it comes down to that diminishing returns argument you have about playing too many talls up front and their marking power. I.e does McDonald help Amiss kick more goals, or does he just take goals off Amiss? Treacy could kick 30 while helping Amiss kick 70 (talking 2025 and beyond) if we get McDonald and he and Amiss both kick 50 goals each per season, was the investment worth it if the net result is 100 goals a year between them?The biggest limiter for Treacy is his touch, which in my opinion, you either have by this age or you don’t.

This isn’t to say it can’t improve, it can and will but there’s a limit on where it goes. I’m also not saying he’s a write-off, there is a 40ish goal forward there maybe in his prime (long way to go from where he is now) but he’s not in McDonalds class.
Maybe we don’t need to waste capital on THAT much tall talent (ironic for BF) but putting Treacy on par with McDonald is prime supporter nuffy talk really. The sort of thing we’d have a good laugh at reading on another board
We need a Walters replacement. Any FP ooc who’s in their prime?
We don’t need McDonald. Just not a need.

Yes, I’m not going to say the people that don’t want McDonald are wrong, because I get the argument on capital / balance, just that people are kidding themselves comparing Treacy to himI guess it comes down to that diminishing returns argument you have about playing too many talls up front and their marking power.

I’m not sure many people are directly comparing Treacy to McDonald at this stage. It’s just that Treacy may have a fair bit of development in him. Then there is what he offers the forward line, outside of marks and goals. I think by the latter part of 2024 the club will have enough info to make a call.Yes, I’m not going to say the people that don’t want McDonald are wrong, because I get the argument on capital / balance, just that people are kidding themselves comparing Treacy to him
McDonald has a fair bit of development in him too though. 2024 is too late really, they’ve made up their mind on McDonald and are chasing him very hard, they want him. Frankly, since Walls has been in charge with JL, I’m prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt on players they rate very highly since draft night since Walls hasn’t missed much.I’m not sure many people are directly comparing Treacy to McDonald at this stage.

You don’t see a world where it’s the envy of the AFL in 6 years?I am not having a go at any one poster, as I have seen it written by many people many times over the past months, but if the Amiss and McDonald pairing ever happens it will be a very good solid pairing. It will not be the envy of the AFL.
Cameron Hawkins was the envy of the AFL
Buddy Roughy was the envy of the AFL
Amiss McDonald are two very good young players but let's be realistic, they aren't in that envy of the AFL territory. They'd be in the tier below. And I rate Amiss the much better of the two, like most of you
