Collingwood has seemly stolen Neale from Fremantle!

“Lachie Neale was keen to return to Fremantle and told them as much this season - on a deal which would have been around $600,000 a year - but Collingwood has offered as much as $3m over 3 seasons. It shapes as a knockout blow. At one stage this year the Dockers were confident Neale would sign a 2 year deal worth around $1.2 million in total, with the 33-year-old telling Fremantle he was keen to return to the club that first drafted him. But Collingwood has since blown the Dockers out of the park with their offer, which comes as coach Craig McRae makes clear he wants to continue topping up with stars. Neale had initially shown a willingness to move back to Perth and play for Fremantle to be closer to his children, but has told confidantes that having sold his Brisbane family house as part of an impending settlement with his wife Jules, he is open to maximising his financial security in the final seasons of his career.”

Would this put the Pies out of the Butters race?

Is Adam Treloar finished?

There’s serious questions being asked on the future of Adam Treloar after the Bulldogs veteran was benched for almost the entire third quarter of his side’s tough loss to Adelaide on Thursday night.

While coach Luke Beveridge defended the decision, Fox Footy’s experts have concerns over what the move means for the 33-year-old Bulldog who has battled a string of soft tissue injuries recently.

“It’s such a sad story because he was so recently a superstar of the game, 2024 an All-Australian. And right now at least, he’s what he never wanted to become which is a passenger,” Jon Ralph said.

“Only a handful of games last year – then he played a great VFL finals series where he convinced himself he could play on again under a one-year deal.”

Treloar finished the night with just 55 per cent time on ground – with only injured Crow Luke Pedlar having less game time and he was ruled out before half time.

He managed 10 disposals – six contested, two marks, one clearance and one tackle.
