I think its time for a best 22 for players from other clubs....
In past decade:
B: Clement Pert Tarrant (yeah, counting him)
HB: Crisp, Wakelin, Licuria
C: Treloar, Buckley, O'Bree
HF: Holland, White, Varcoe
F: Medhurst, A.Rocca, A.Krakouer
Foll: Jolly, Adams, Ball
Int: Young, Lynch, Greenwood, ?Woewodin

Glenn Freeborn? Leroy? Better than Lynch and Young, surely!

If your counting pert in the last decade throw in dermott brereton over white. Leigh brown maybe slightly better at the Leigh brown role as well ;)

Leroy!!! A thousand apologies. Yeah, piss off Lynch and stick the Anvil in there. Probably pushes someone else to the bench as well.

What years was Freeborn with us? Memory going

Missed the decade part. Yep, Freeborn didn't qualify. Leroy and White for Lynch and Young I reckon.

Also, as long as you're picking Krakouer, you can pick Elliott as well. He was recruited the same way, as was (the second coming of) Marty Clarke. Although Clarke was a dud.

Cameron Wood? I give up.

Woe was more than a decade ago (as were Clement, Wakes, O'Bree, Lica, etc). If it's just the last decade, the team would be horrendous! Even Jordan Russell would make it.

excellent work...i might have to give you a tougher challenge...how about best 22 pie players who have been in trouble with the law...

best 22 players who have been suspended by the tribunal..

we could go on forever
 
I think a lot of people are missing the point of this thread. When recruited;

a. Clement was a good average player;
b. Rocca was a kid; and
c. Licca was a kid with a horrible injury history (he was basically what Freeman is now).

They all became stars at Collingwood, Clement a genuine champion. We didn't recruit them as stars. Treloar already is one.

I loved Ball but even at his best he wasn't the player Treloar is already.

Jolly is the only one who you could mount a case for. He was one of the best rucks around when we got him. He had one good year for us (he was horrible after that). He just picked the right one!

If anything Licca was rated below Freeman - very good at u/18 level but had two recos under his belt already. Drafted mid twenties I think
and never made any kind of impact at Sydney. Rocket didn't rate him at all. I don't think anyone expected great things.

Treloar to me is one of the best young players in the game today, he is not a champion yet but, he should go on to be one and then be remembered as one of the greats.

He is already a A-Grader and what we see IF he can get to Elite Status
 
I agree he is the best individual player we've traded in since Buckley, but time will tell if it was the best trade we've made in that time.

For mine the best trade we've landed in that period was the deal to get Jolly aboard because without him we still sit on 14 premierships, IMO.

If we can land number 16 in AT's time it'll go down as our best off-season move ever.
 
The thing i love most about Treloar is his drive and ambition. Every time he talks, he mentions he is here to win premierships. You just know he is going to give everything he can, all the time.

Bewtween Bucks, Pendles and Treloar, we have 3 dedicated and driven individuals.

Only one's really worth considering are Caracella, Hudson, Aish and Howe
 
Ask me again after round 1. I'm running along side the bandwagon until I see him actually produce.

Out of curiosity are you yet to see a GWS game? The kids a jet and there's plenty of room on the bandwagon.

You are correct, can't remember him standing out when they've played us, only seen the highlight reels. I'm sure you're correct and I'll be scrambling on board soon enough.

Don't personally watch a lot of GWS games and can honestly say he hasn't really stood out in the games I've seen. Realise that's a very small sample and he should be entering his prime but can fully understand people's caution about jumping too early onto any bandwagon.
