2014 Player Review - # 9 Jack Trengove


Demonland

Recommended Posts

After a promising opening NAB Challenge match against Richmond there was much optimism that Trengove was poised to rejuvenate his career without the burden of the captaincy. However, a broken foot detected in the first month put paid to his season.

I see him along with Jesse Hogan and Jimmy Toumpas as our three main "recruits" of 2015. I would throw in Jack Grimes who did play a lot but seemed out of sorts, as the fourth. They and the players to come in will make us a better team and hopefully hasten our rise.

You may as well add Col Garland to that list. He played no where near his best this season

We need this guy to go back to what he was showing in his first couple of years - big marks, big kicks, hunting the ball and the man.

Since the sling tackle he's been a shadow of what we expected.

Like everyone, I'm hoping the foot was the major issue, and that we get the prime midfield mover we thought we had on our hands.

You had me clapping until you got to the forth one WJ.

A bridge too far comes to mind.

I just hope this club hasn't worn him down and he's not now just going along for the ride. I hope he still has the same drive and hunger. He's going to need it if he's going to get anywhere near the player he was in his first couple of seasons, when in fact we need him to be going beyond that level. He's a number 2 draft pick for heaven's sake. We need to see some value.

2014 was make or break for Blease, Strauss and Tapscott, and we pretty much got our answer. 2015 is that year for Trengove.

I think the injury may well have been a major factor in restricting Trenners,

but I agree, 2015 he needs to take steps and show he's worth persisting with, he has shown how good he can be, which is why he won't be traded this year.

I just watched trenners video on the mfc website.
hes had a pretty tough run (most have at mfc), but he's still optimistic.
He's a great bloke and I really hope he can get some fitness back this pre season and have a good crack in 2015.

Very easy to read too much into some things. Trenners is featuring of late on the MFC site. Inclined to think hes a keeper. Another Sth Aussie...isnt though :unsure:

Really? What makes you think that? That fact he has a broken lisenfranc or navicular or whatever or did you deduce it all by yourself??? Just kidding :)

Toump did do the Robbo segment.

But I don't think anyone would be too shocked to see him offered as part of a trade deal. Could go either way.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
