Trengove + Tapscott

Bang Bang Bang
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Trengove noticeably lifts for the croweaters and Tapscott has joined that party.

Great pair.

Emmn, can't wait for another crow eater to join that trio, you forgot Jamar. Young Viney?

Scotty Thompson, lookout!

PS: Scotty, how did you go yesterdasy, against our best inside Mid, Beamer Moloney? I think we got Beamer to Melbourne when you left us...

    Since the first few games last year I have believed that Trengove is a better kick than Scully.

    It is one thing to get the ball but another to deliver it well.

    he seldom misses the target I have a gut feel we are looking at a future B & F winner.

    I have a gut feeling he'll be more than just a B&F winner. He'll be an absolute star.

    Jack's serious Norm Smith medal material.

    I thought Clint Bartram was in our best half dozen today for his tagging job on Thompson, we didnt get many chances to boo him thankfully! It did seem strange seeing Barts win centre clearances and even kick a goal, the first time in a long time I can remember him having an 'onball' tag for a couple of years...

    Trengoves attack on the ball with an opponent coming in hard, to setup a goal on our attacking 50 metre line in that last quarter was inspirational. He had a ripping game yesterday!

    Like your confidence BB but first we have to get there.

    That unfortunately is some years off.

    Happy for him to win a B&F in the mean time.

    I agree DemonDave. Trengove spun 360 off a bump at half forward; while under pressure, handball-ed forward through traffic to the player in perfect position; goal. He get's only one handball stat but it's gold. You need see no more to know that you're watching a champion-in-the-making. The great thing is that there was so much more to watch.

    On another thread, Demonlanders have referred to the old adage. "Looks like Tarzan, plays like..." Tapscott already looks like Tarzan & plays like King Kong. The steal of the 2009 draft.

    I'm a very proud contented SA Demon this morning

    They are both great young men, have met them both, JT more often and have found him to be a level headed and dedicated young man.

    On the field he is going to be a star.

    I cant beleive the lack of press he has received in his time.

    If he was playing for the Tigers now you can guarantee he would have had a story about him on the back page today, as is the love fest for Martin at the moment.

    It is also unbelievable that he could not crack it into the top 8 players for us in the Sun!!!

    Personally I would not swap him for Martin no matter how good Martin is looking now.

    I thought he was quite effective in the guts too. We can do with a couple more extractors and at the very least, if the ball is moving forward he is doing the job.

    Good move yesterday by Bailey to have Bail in the back half and Bartram in the guts.

    Credit due there.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
