One of the commentators (cant remember which one) made the point during the season that Jack Trengove needs a sprint coach over the summer as he has lost all his explosiveness and acceleration.

I think its something that has to be done, Trengove has the chance to become the star he is supposed to now Roos is in charge, and if he can get back that yard or two of pace he lost the last 2 years he will become one hell of a player.

Paul Roos certainly needs to identify what the issues are there, if he can't gain all of the speed back he needs to look at Ryan Okeefe and become the hardest running player at the club, he has class and skill and all that, i think alot of our players just need to be given a role and something to work towards!

Sprint coach would certainly not hurt a few of our boys.

A sprint coach will not help him regain pace or explosiveness, getting to the bottom of why he has lost it and fixing it might.

Remember Rioli getting trained to change his running style, nothing happened. He is still doing hammy's.

I'd be interested to hear if Jack trained with his sister growing up and before he got drafted.

Train slow, run slow and perhaps we have to work harder with Jack than others.

I find it impossible to believe that Trengove doesn't have groin issues. Problems with the groin greatly effect your power off the mark and the young Trengove I saw didn't run like he had concrete in his boots.

Trengove looks exactly like Luke Ball prior to moving to Collingwood.

They gave him a full time personal physio from memory, and it'd be worth us outlaying the cost of that for Trengove IMHO.

Hoping to see the old jack back next year after missing most of last preseason, another one under his belt with Roos, he should show what he is capable of.

Im not sure Jack will be the player everybody wishes him to be

Lower our expectations he may turn out an ok footballer not a star never.

Already have, lowered them ages ago. A shame. He has all the right stuff but for his speed and power these days. He's been crueled, we've been effectively dudded.

I see a player lacking pace who cannot get any distance with his kicks.

I cannot believe he has been carrying injuries for 2 years.

But hopefully we find out the truth soon.

Agreed

The stress fracture at the start of the year may still be effecting him but otherwise I think people are looking for an excuse.

I hope he does have some kind of fixable injury but if he did wouldn't we have heard about it through one of demonlands many sources.

Garry Lyon told the public about Frawley carrying an injury - I think if there was something wrong making it public it would ease the pressure on Jack.

It was Matthew Lloyd on 3AW. (He also said during the same game that Jack Watts needed an "intensity coach")

Most likely a combination of things, stress fracture, existing injuries ( OP ) pressure of being captain, pressure of supplements scandal, lack of confidence, worrying too much about other players,

i thought his performance become quite consistent towards the end of the year, and in the very last game he showed a little bit more zip

i'm sure Roos will have a plan for how to sort that out, i feel his zip back would make him a much better player, pace and confidence

This is a player who was taking speccies in the forward line to seal matches.

His ferocity at the contest and vicious tackling left us all proud and howling down the penalty for a sling tackle on Dangerfield.

This guy was capable of having a match-winning influence.

Something has changed, but he was that guy.

I'm convinced he has "manageable" OP, and it's crippling him.

We've seen a similar thing with Luke Ball years ago, and he came back from it.

Someone call David Buttifant, find out what he did & save Trengove's career.

You are talking about Trengove right?

Match sealer?

Maybe you don't remember.

It would've been 2011 I think.

I am pretty sure 2011 was the year where we either won by a lot or lost by a lot.

Apart from the Sydney draw of course. We just don't win many close ones.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
