The talented midfielder showed great maturity and improvement in his second season. Missed three games in controversial circumstances after being cited for his tackle on Adelaide's Dangerfield. 

The future leader demonstrated his loyalty to the club late in the season by extending his contract till the end of 2015.

Really looking forward to his career.

Great head on his shoulders.

Start of 2013 and our best mids will probably be Trengove, McKenzie, Gysberts, Viney, and Bail. Maybe Moloney ahead of Bail...

Brave new world...

Future star for sure. The way he carried himself all through this year, from T$gate to tacklegat was sensational. A kid who we can all be really proud of as a committed MFC player.

He reminds me alot of a tripple premership, brownlow / normsmith medallist player for the Cats.... Reliable set shot and goal, great overhead, likes the tough stuff, and is generally a footballers footballer!

He's our Jimmy Bartell.

Maybe Moloney ahead of Bail? All those names have a long way to go to be ahead of Moloney!

Anyway Jack had a great year. Overhead marking is great, skills a very good. A lot of strengths for the kid! Hope he can continue his improvement!

Nope, he's our Jack Trengove, and would that he could reach ANY of the heights of Jimmy Bartel! One thing is, he will captain of an AFL club before JB! Maybe he'll acheive everything Bartel has, and that will be his point of difference, hehehee.

Viney, in his first season, will be in our Top 5 midfielders? Wowee, this kid must be good (especially considering in his first year he will be better than Moloney).

A lot of people on here see the Bartel comparison - I'm buggered if I do! JT to me is a clone of Luke Hodge. Has shown that agressive side early in their career (Hodge had to be told to settle down by the club IIRC), can go forward and kick goals, or play the sweeper role on half back. I guess that's what Bartel does too, but I just think build-wise, JT and Hodge are very, very similar.

Man crush.

Although concerningly, isn't 2015 when he becomes available under free agency?

Nope. He would need to have given 8 years to the club. That puts it at the end of 2017 before he's a free agent.

I also think the world of this kid. Every time he appears in public he does something to further the reputation of te football club. He must be the PR department's dream come true.

My only concern is that I see him through such ridiculously rose coloured glasses that even I recognise it, so I could be setting myself up for huge disappointment (cue rpfc...). I just find it really hard to form an objective opinion of him.

Anyway, he's a certainty for the captain role after Green makes way for mine.

Trenners is a smart and hard-working footballer. He's as hard as nails with courage to match, has very solid skills (especially overhead marking) and shows maturity beyond his years and experience. He's a ripper and we are very lucky to have him. His loyalty is an added bonus. Fifth placing in the Bluey in only his second year was an exellent achievement. If he continues to develop as I expect, he will be a star and a leader at our Club.

Congratulations on getting co-captaincy, a more deserving recipient you will not see. Thanks for sticking by us when we were going through that rough patch too, you are a gun!

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
