Not really an ideal scenario for one of our skippers.

Hope the fitness guys can keep him in reasonable shape for the rigours of the season because we need him improving and at his best after an ordinary year on the field from him in 2012.

    Would he be missed PF?

    Yes like my left [censored].

    I would hang onto it Schneider it is more valuable

    Where's your Christmas spirit, OD?
    Just made a simple observation TF.

    Based on his 2012 form would he be missed?

    Now 2013 may be a big year for him but when you start preseason training with a foot stress fracture it looks doubtful.

    This type of injury often means a season off.

    My memory tells me Colin Garland started out this way and he lost a season.

    In my wee mind I have him as a scratching for at minimum the first half of 2013.

    We have all seen what the lack of a full pre season does to players.

    Not expecting much from JT in 2013.

    Is there a message there?

    There's some merit in what you say but it sounds like the diagnosis and subsequent treatment came early enough to head off the sort of injury that Colin Garland suffered a few years ago.

    Based on his 2012 form, I doubt that he would be missed all that much but we will nevethess miss out because Jack is at the stage where, along with several of his teammates, some significant steps forward are expected of him. The lay off is definitely a blow but we do have some good people dealing with strength and conditioning so that even while he's not going full bore on the track, he can still work on maximising his fitness during the recovery period.

    I therefore still think he has a significant role to play in the year ahead.

    I hope you are right WJ.

    Perhaps I am being a little pessimistic but the last 6 years have taught me not to get excited in December.

    You are probably correct Bossdog it usually drops in a hole around late Feb!

    Trengove needs to hit the gym more anyway.

    I see local footballers in better upper body shape than Jack.

    It was certainly an area that I noticed, so providing Trengove hits the gym

    over the course of his injury - it might actually be benefical that he is hauled up.

    Am I wrong ?
    not yet you are not.

    When has Trengove taken a game by the bells and starred?

    Still waiting. Many on here will not like the comment but it is true.

    Hope he does it soon.

    To quote the Big Lebowski

    "No Walter ,you're not wrong ,you're just an [censored]".

    I sense a new whipping boy coming up, which is a little peculiar seeing as Trengove isn't a ginger-nut, doesn't have a porn-star style mo, or isn't challenging a stick of celery for the lowest BMI.

    Youngest captain in MFC history- obviously was playing under duress last year, which may have contributed to his current injury, loyal as a dog and has never put a foot wrong off field, loves our club and has declared his intent to right this wrong ship yet still some of you have a dig.

    Heres a suggestion- go watch some of his junior tapes, recognize that last year was a hiccup- breath- and give the kid a break FFS

    What's not to like ? You're only stating fact.

    That said, I rate him highly and can't believe that so many here don't share my enthusiasm due to a down year. His first two years as a teenager were terrific.

    I am just waiting for a solid game. At this stage i believe he is over rated. That is not having a dig.

    I am just looking at the games i have seen.

    You need to watch more closely, or work on improving your memory.

    In late 2011, Trengove stood up in crucial moments, and was solid.

    A poor year, whilst enduring an excessive training load, does not define his career to date.

    oh really. Thanks for the advice Jose.

    Does solid now mean a starring role does it?

    Gimme a break.

    Late 2011 we beat The Suns at The 'G.

    Breathtaking.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
