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

Trengove and 23 for 12?

Rubbish trade.

If Richmond had Trengove in this exact scenario, we'd be seeking him out ourselves.

Really unhappy about this prospect.

Trengove signed a new contract in the week following the horrors of 186. That is the sort of loyalty you don't forget.

There would need to be a very big fish involved to trade Trenners and Pick 23 for Pick 12 which is Richmond getting him for an 11 pick downgrade.

I am not happy about this, but I guess if we want to improve we have to give up something that we think is quality. To get something better we will have to give something that others see as equal to or better than what they are giving up.

The beams trade doesn't make sense to me. "I wanna go home due to family issues but now I wanna move across the road" Is Mitch the new manager of Beams?

All I'm thinking is who are we trying to get if we need more top 20 picks?

That age article seems to debunk the Beams to dees dream.

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....)

Lets not let the facts get in the way here WYL, he has been sub par for 2012 & 2013 that is two seasons, he has been out all season injured. Whilst I agree with you that his 2012/13 form is not that of a number 2 pick his early form was very impressive.

The kid can play and will be a good player when he gets a decent run at it, really disappointed in this trade if true, would only do a straight swap for Pick 12, my thoughts are something else is happening behind the scenes in regard to an exchange of draft picks for another player we have been chasing.

Trengove has shown loyalty to this club and this should be remembered as try and build our culture

If that Adelaide deal has legs to it, then we should take their pick 10 and keep it - not offload it to Collingwood for Beams.

2, 3, 10 sets us up VERY well for this draft, I hope we back ourselves in.

Petracca, Brayshaw and Laverde/Ahern.

Now Adelaide to consider trumping Richmond for Trengove:

Adelaide Crows look to trump Richmond deal for Melbourne midfielder Jack Trengove

Yikes

What a nonsense article. So what if Adelaide has number 10 to potentially 'trump' the Tigers for Trengove. So what if he's from SA.

No doubt St Kilda also has the chance to 'trump' Richmond by offering their number 1 pick for Trengove.

What a nonsense article.

yeah i just looked at it properly

Its just the author telling us Adelaide have pick 10 and could trump Richmond if they wanted. Well no [censored], any club with a higher pick could trump them

No quote from Adelaide themselves, just an authors fairytale

We need atleast 3 live picks in the draft.

Looking at that we have absolutely no picks whatsoever.

Technically we only need 1 live pick. Jetta upgrade counts for 1 and Stretch the other.

I don't like the thought of trading out Trengove. And I can't understand why Beams would want to come to us after saying he wants to be up north with his brother and father.

But if we did get Beams and Dangermouse how could we complain about that?

The sling tackle was 2011...Correct.

Since then his form has been poor to average...

He hath no pace or acceleration...Loyalty is a fine quality but it won't win finals if the body aint up to it.

remember we will be passing on the compensation for Trenners to Collingwood so getting pick 10 means collingwood gets pick 10 they benefit more by the better deal not us.

i could handle trenners moving to Adelaide more than richmond. At least his family is in Adelaide.

Beams would be to much like the clark scenario and if we got him id fear he'd leave us like Mitch has and he'd walk out on us after a couple of years to go back to brisbane.

I have my doubts about the Beams thing. Pies knocked back 5 & 25 for him as a matter of principle - misguided or otherwise. 3 and 23 is enough of a step up for them to release him without losing face. They could even chuck back 48 at us. He does not want to play for them & the sick dad stuff is just a small part of the equation.

We don't need to trade out Trengove but my gut feel is that if it has come this far in the news, it's done. I don't like it. If we are trying to attract players to the club over the next few years , what sort of message is this sending ?

And if Trengove goes reluctantly to the Tigers I may well have a Richmond - supporting daughter. I can't cop that

Posted

Surely we won't get Beams, he wants to go home to QLD.

I'll be gutted if:

a) all we get for Trenners is a pick upgrade of 11 spots; and

b) we try and hijack a person who say they want to go home and instead comes to us for crazy money and with suspicious motives

If anything, should Adelaide be offering Pick 10 and Richmond Pick 12, we should say to Richmond that we'll give you Trengove for Pick 12 but we're not throwing in Pick 23 as well because we've got an offer for Pick 10 on the table from Adelaide

Well..... go out to dinner and bloody hell.

I do enjoy trade week for the very reason everything nutty and otherwise gets bandied about and then occasionally something gets legs.

I often said and still will all players are negotiable, some more and some less than others but..... Some are , in a fashion , more cut out for the trade table than others but you have to give to get as they said. I and others have said it wouldnt be beyond reason to think players at the edge of performance kpi's then , well, look out

But all that aside Im amazed, bewildered , and even a little confronted , that Trengove is on the table. Had the Greek been put up I wouldnt blink but Trenners ....

Others allude to it and I can only think there is more afoot than meets the eye here. Roos isnt one for collecting kids. We still havent morphed 2 and 3 into players so why 'stock' up with a 12, or even a 10 for that matter unless its part of something much larger.

All quite odd

Paddy Dangerfield is a fantastic player and a great football commodity, but he is just one player. The idea that we should do anything it takes is to get him is the Messiah thinking that has got us into so much trouble. Dom Tyson and Bernie Vince were good examples of the way we should go about this. Expecting one player to change our fortunes is misguided. Having said that, I would love to see Paddy in Demon colours.

While he has been disappointing in the last couple of years, Trenners represents something really good and wholesome. I am very wary about letting him go unless it is for a very well considered deal.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
