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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
