Jack Trengove re-injures his navicular (2014) - trade deal off

[beelzebub 23,379]

Poor fella.

It's not about where he plays, it's about whether he will ever play again.

Well...lets all look at the elephant in the room

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,396]

Offer the Tigers Watts instead.

[Bluelegs 36]

Seems pretty clear what is going on. We realise Trengove's foot is done and we try to sell him to Richmond while he still has value. In the meantime we try to shop around our potential picks, see if anyone is interested (I very much doubt anyone was).

GNF what the hell is going on? You throw us round the bend on this stupid guessing game?

Feel for Trengove, has been dealt a really [censored] hand in life, and if we tried to shop around an injured player then the club has a lot to answer for too. Will only have burned our bridges with any future trades with Richmond.

[beelzebub 23,379]

Some serious thinking now required. It wont all be overly enjoyable I should imagine.

Dont think that was the case. Not sure but JT has some scans for Richmond and this was the result....

[Forest Demon 4,681]

Sounds like the Richmond medical uncovered the re-aggravation to me. Either we knew about it and kept it on the down low, or we didn't know about it. Either way, not a good look.

[Redleg 40,944]

An everyone loses outcome.

Absolutely and may destroy another trade that was planned.

[jnrmac 20,096]

What would that be? Our medical staff from 2012 or AOD9064 from Dank??

[jackaub 1,402]

When did he re-injure it and how? Or wasnt it healed yet??

[beelzebub 23,379]

I dont think we burnt any bridges trying this . Kudos to the Toiges for the due diligence. Commiserations to Trengove. I dont think footy ( playing ) will feature largely going forward

[stinga81 210]

I really do feel for JT.

So many setbacks, one final chance to get the body right and well, if not than this time next year we could be saying goodbye to him off an AFL List. I surely hope not, but it doesn't look good.

[Gipsy Danger 1,067]

This is starting to look like a Matthew Egan situation.

Poor bloke deserves so much better then this especially after the crap Neeld put him through.

Best wishes for your recover Jack, hope to see you in the red and blue again soon.

Of course they did, Richmond were doing their due diligence. I find it hard to believe we were shopping him around in confidence that his Navicular was all fixed up.

The elephant is quite simply "Will Trengove ever play another AFL game" ? I doubt it

[BIG JIM 508]

I hope this did not happen while MFC we're pushing him to run for the scum from Richmond just to get a extra draft pick.

[poita 3,902]

This whole saga pretty much sums up the club in a nutshell. Doomed to wallow in perpetual mediocrity.

[Deemotivated 550]

Can't even take a trick...

[BIG JIM 508]

If this did happen while doing a medical at the RFC I will be very angry.

Nothing like the Egan situaation

Egan did his late in the season and he tried to come back for the grand final and totally stuffed it. JT has had a normal recovery and it just hasn't worked.

The curse continues!

[Demons rising 52]

Very sad in many ways

Time for a change to thread title

you're a happy little poster, aren't you.

[Redleg 40,944]

I look at it this way. Roos must have a fair idea of what Trenners is capable of and his fitness status.

Buckle up, next week could be a bumpy ride.

Pretty accurate on both points, I would think.

[sam in sydney 14]

looks like the 08-09 drafts are going kill us

thanks Schwab, BP

Its lost us a generation

Shame Shame Shame

P.s , and i put money up for that rubbish

[Nasher 33,616]

Look, I'm all for a bit of a Barry bash, but to blame him for this happening to Trengove is completely ridiculous.
