What's the go on him, no real news?

will he be fit to play? or will we have to wait to see our skipper?

Posted

He is not injured, we are under attack, he is our captain, he should play or the captaincy title is just bs.

Posted

Please can we have just one captain, that would be Grimes, though Mitch Clark would be nice.

His performance in the VFL did not warrant a call up.

Says you... Who has NFI what role he was asked to play, and what KPIs he was being judged on to assess his readiness to return to AFL level.

It never ceases to amaze me the ignorance & naivety some posters display...

Barely touched the ball at VFL level. Doesn't take a genius to see he isn't performing to an AFL standard yet.

Over examine it anyway you want, whatever helps you sleep.

End of the day he barely impacted the game last week for Casey.

And Sellar,Pederson,Gillies,Garland,Dunn are AFL standard???

Sadly being AFL standard is not a prerequisite to play for the Demons.

The last thing this team needs is another plodder who cant chase his opponent. The captaincy title should not come into it.

I'd rather a plodder who can't chase than a slacker who won't chase.

Me too, but either way he wont improve our team i reckon.

Neeld confirms in todays HUN that he will play as will T-mac and Terlich. I believe Trengove will make alot of people eat their words once he gets the right balance in his game between attack and defence. He may not be quick but I watched Watson, Swallow, Kennedy and Gibbs all give best on performances last week. None of whom are quick but have great endurance, work ethic and the knack to find the pill.

Trengove would be wasted at Casey. I'd swap him for his buddy Tapscott and play him on a HFF

Plodder?! No other team in the entire competition would think that of Jack Trengove.

Not sure 2012 would suggest he was more than a plodder RB.

However he has bugger all Pre season, a serious foot injury and Poor form ( not really surprising ) last week with Casey.

I would wonder why he would be played this weekend.

If as many suggest we are only 1 week into a 22 game season.

Why play him before he has shown has some touch and the fitness to go the distance in an AFL game.

In is not as though he is coming off a wonderful 2012

Now that is a good idea DemonWA, it is hard to see him being worse than Tapscott

I think that is his spot.

IMO that is where he has played the vast majority of his good games.

we are trying to make him a mid simply because we have only 1 mid at present.

Problem is, Trenners is so 'not quick' he wouldn't catch any of those blokes and he doesn't find the pill as much as them.

He doesn't deserve a game, which is why he'll get one, it's the MFC way.

I hope I eat my words, I love the kid and want him to succeed, I just can't see him being more than average midfielder, rather than the gun midfielder we hoped to draft.

Either way, he'll make sweet FA difference to this weeks outcome.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
