Jack Trengove was just interviewed on Triple M. Nothing really insightful discussed. Here's a quick rundown:

JB - It's a great honour etc... Ususal stuff.

BB - What was the first thing you did when told?

JT - Were told Thursday Night. Sworn to secrecy. Neeld allowed them to tell their families half an hour before the official announcement.

Some byplay about all Melbourne captains weraing no. 3 in future (Dyer reference?)

BB - What sort of captain will you be?

JT - Not the loudest bloke in the changeroom. Will just go about his business and help teammates improve. Lead by actions.

JB - How do you go with the older group? Brad Green?

JT - No issues with them. Have told him that they will back them and have confidence in them. No discomfort or ill feeling.

BB - Mitch CLark a surprise for leadership group.

JT - He's been great. Got to the club at the same time as Neeld. Has really proved himself. Gives lots of confidence

Special priveleges for captains? None according to JT. Aparently hasn't impacted on social activities either.

BB - How's Neeld been?

JT - He's been awesome so far. Lots of respect. Assistant coaches really confident in him. Hes been at a team that's been there and done that, everyone very confident in him.

Token Plug for membership.

Mention of Grimes.

BB - Have you got together with JG?

Yes, got together and had a chat about how to go about it over the weekend.

JB on Grimes and his injuries.

JT - He's going really well. In full training. Fit. Totally recovered.

Quick note on where the first NAB cup games are.

Throwaway question on who osses the coin.

That's about it. Nothing earhtshattering in there, but it was interesting in places. Its good to hear such positive responses about the coaching group.

    JB and Bill were just having a joke with the number 3 because they said that garry Lyon said after he retired he wanted the new captains to wear the number 3 in honour of his great captaincy. It was just Jb and Billy mucking around and trying to put Garry in it.

    Laughed when asked how would the tossing of the coin be decided Jack said they might have to do rock paper scissors before the game. But dood to hear the 2 captains got together over the weekend and mapped some stuff out.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
