"It's hard to say no": Treloar understands Coniglio's position

2019-06-26T08:05+10:00

If anyone understands the position Stephen Coniglio currently finds himself in, it’s Collingwood midfielder Adam Treloar.

Treloar moved to the Pies from GWS looking to be part of a big Victorian club and he feels Coniglio, a free agent at the end of the season, will be incredibly tempted to do the same.

“I’ve been through that,” Treloar said on Fox Footy’s AFL 360

“I’m a Melbourne boy, so once I knew I wanted to come back to Melbourne, to have the opportunity to play for a big club, that was the most exciting thing.

“If I was in Cogs’ shoes, obviously there’s things you’ve got to weigh up.

“He’s an absolute superstar … he’s probably the best two-way player in the comp in terms of getting back and getting forward as a midfielder. He could captain any club.

“Really, it’s going to be hard to say no to a few offers that might come (his) way but he’s a very loyal man, so it’s a ‘watch this space’ type of thing.”

Host of SEN’s Time On Sam McClure said last week he feels Coniglio is deciding between Carlton, Hawthorn, Geelong and West Coast – should he decide to depart the Giants.
