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

If it makes the side better in the long run, I'm all for it.

But I really do like Jack and on face value it looks a trade that could leave us the laughing stock yet again.

Hmmm this is very interesting. Jack Trengove is not what we thought...Pick 12 must already be in place for an improvement..

8 years of failure here kiddies...Roos has been bought in to do the job

Let's see what happens.

Trengove has been sub par since 2011.......that is 4 years (88 Games....)

This is what "everyone is tradeable" looks like.

No point throwing our hands in the air, this is typical of the kinds of trades that many here have been proposing in regards to players from other clubs coming to the Dees.

As I've said above, I am a big fan of Trenners but you are pretty spot on here WYL.

If he weren't to improve from here on in, it'd probably be a win for us. But I really do hope we don't trade him.

If it's driven by the club then it seems near certain that we need the pick 12 to make another deal work. Coupling 2 or 3 with 12 can only mean a very very good player. I'm excited.

Where's the 'Trust in Roos' brigade when you need them?

Agree. It's gotta be bull.

Doesn't it?

I still think, as a collective (and I know we're asking plenty of the supporters), we need to hold our judgement on this trade until we see the bigger picture. Roos has stated that he doesn't want us to draft in too many kids and I believe him. While Dangerfield may be out of reach, there may be something else going on underneath it all that we don't know about yet. To me there must be a player out there that we can get for 2 first rounders that will bring more to the table than what Roos believes Trengove can, and he is going hard after it. It would mean we get one of Brayshaw/Petracca, an excellent midfielder, Stretch, Lumumba, Garlett and possibly Frost. To me that is an excellent trade period.

It still has to happen but I think there is more here than meets the eye.

Extended his contract when Scully took the money and ran.

Accepted the captaincy when we were at our lowest.

A role model on the training track and originally injured his foot doing non-compulsory preseason training sessions.

Even the article sights him as being 'reluctant' to move to Richmond.

I don't get overly worked up about list decisions the club makes - but this one would do my head in.

This is like trading Woewodin all over again.

looks like a terrible deal on the face of things.

a pick 2 from 5 years ago AND a second round pick for pick 12?

once a player is on a list it makes no difference where he was picked. If club sees potential it makes no difference if you're $cully or Rockliff

I'm clinging to this like Kate Winslet to a floating piece of debris in the Atlantic. Unfortunately, Jack Trengove is playing the role of Leonardo DiCaprio.

Trading Woewodin was the right thing to do....

I am a massive wrap for Trenners and always will be... But... The below scenario is jumping out at me

Trengove to Tigers for pick 12

Pick 2 used by dees to snag best available mid

Picks 3 + 12 to Colling%^#* in exchange for Beams

Thoughts?

Beams doesn't NEED to move North... He WANTS out of shitsville!

Maybe its to help the Ryder deal get thru: An elite Port player to Dees for pick 3 and 12 and one of those Port sends on to Essendon (with their) 17 for Ryder.

Or something similar to help get the Beams deal thru altho I can't think of anyone I would want from the pies.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
