Don't forget "Treddas is the heart and sole of the club" - sole of his mate's football boots perhaps? Oh, you meant soul. Got it.
How quickly people forget though about how good Tredrea was. He was injured for much of last year which didn't help but he's showing a lot of signs of getting back some of what he had. And yes, creating a contest is a big thing - especially when your other forwards are more goal sneaks than a focal point (Ebert, Motlop etc). With Port's on-ball brigade being as good as they are (Burgoynes, Cornes etc), all Tredrea needs to do is bring the ball down and not have it taken out of the area quickly.
Those having a go at Westhoff - wow, 3 weeks into the season and you're writing off a great young talent? Idiots. Its because of his great first year he's going to struggle this year as teams will actually have more of a focus on him.
Go away, learn about professional sport (or sport of any type) and then come back and discuss it rationally.
