Where on earth is Jack Trengove? Would've expected him to be playing in Friday's dress reheasal - will be a key this year...The article on the MFC website doesn't say anything about his whereabouts either...not injured, an inclusion, omission or resting.

What's up with Trengove?

can't wait for this

oh wait we wont see a second of it damn

He' having a week off, holidaying @ Penrith. LoL

Too much Fairy floss at the family day for Jack...

Hawthorn also have a strong squad in, only really missing Hodge. This will be a good test of where we are at. Unfortunately, I reckon they will beat us by about 7-10 goals.

What's up with Trengove?

I'd guess he's not playing because he's already 100% ready to go, and too many other players need the run to get up to scratch.

Surely if he is 100% ready to go thats all the more reason for him to playing??

Fair call, looked in good nick in Adelaide and against Essendon.

puntroadend had a live telecast put up for the tiges supporters for a nab challenge match a couple of weeks ago, would be great if we could get that for this game?

between ourselves and hawthorn we have what 90,000 members or something.. surely that warrants some sort of telecast

i made a thread about this and apparantly nobody gives a rats

C & B, I care! LOL

Would be nice. Unfortunately, can't see it happening...

I'm all for that...didn't get along to the Brissy game and would've loved to have had the chance to watch. Kudos that Matt Burgan and crew provide live chat updates though.

Let me know where I need to sign...

hopefully those @DemonsHQ will provide twice as many tweets, making footy akin to an old DOS game.

yes I look forward to having a Jurrah speccie described to me in text, that is the only true way to enjoy the sport

I talked to trengove after last weeks game against brisbane and i asked him are u all good, and he said yer just having a weeks rest and i should play next week.

not sure what the go is there hes not on the injury report, thats 3 weeks without a game not great preparation going into rnd 1!!!

This is the sort of thing I want to see happen when we develop our own social venues around town. Live feeds shown on a big screen, when not telecast,,,as well as other shows of interest, like big boxing matches could be shown, or even members nights with a big screen say showing past Iconic sports videos, past Demon G/F's, & Icons like "The Fight", between 'smokin joe' & Mohammed Ali.

Or Sugar Ray Leonard, Hagler, Old test cricket footage on Lillee & Thomo & Marsh.

I think we could do a lot more as a club, socially.

James Strauss is named in the side, yet is in doubt with a hamstring complaint.

In fact it was mentioned in an article on the club website:

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/108978/default.aspx

Trengove could easily be a late inclusion.

I'm not concerned either way.

Unless it's a career threatening or long-term injury, it doesn't worry me.

This is a development year.

A few games missed here and there are largely inconsequential, as are wins.

good to see Gysberts and Tapscott in again. both seem to be on the same conservative program but good to see they can hit the ground running for round 1 whether it be at Casey or the Dees.

No sign of Blease, yet hear he played a praccie match last week for Casey ? no Lucas Cook either ?

i've got a really good feeling about Howe.

He just seems like one of those guys who will really bring a new dimension to the forward line.

I'm really excited to see him push into the 1sts

Surely if he is 100% ready to go thats all the more reason for him to playing??

If he's 100% ready to go then what do you gain by playing him (at the expense of someone who's not ready to go and needs the run)?

He would be fit and ready to go. The heirarchy must have a look at some of the others who haven't had the priviledge such as Gysberts, Tapscott, Blease, etc before the real stuff starts. WIth McKenzie out injured they must sift through for the replacement. Best way to do this is game time. They know what they'll get with Trengove.

Trengove is fine.

FACT: He didnt play last week because he pulled up a little sore from the Essendon game.

My guess is the club wants him cherry ripe for Rd 1 and the season.

Similar to Scully, he probably could of played against Essendon
