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



Recommended Posts

Posted

Not only is JT fighting for his career, he will be doing it at a club that openly tried to trade him.

He won't be a FA next year as it stands but I think the relationship between club and player has been changed irrevocably now.

I am not one to get overly despondent but even if he recovers, I don't think we will see the following renaissance.

That';s not right. We were approached by Richmond and he was spoken to about it. Very different to trying to offload him....

well said Trenners

Just read it myself and it really goes to the quality of the kid. To have the Trengove of his 2nd AFL would be marvelous. Im not putting money on ya son, sorry, but truly hope you can overcome your setback and prove many of us wrong.....Id gladly be wrong.

All the best, however it goes.

Surely it's semantics to the individual involved?

The conversation he had with the Tigers is the concern, not who instigated it.

That matters to us, but to him - we were willing to part with him and that is a fact he will have to get over, embrace, or be burnt by.

Clearly the foot is an issue, but it also says something for the wisdom of shopping around people with the qualities of Jack Trengove - they just don't grow on trees and this club can't afford to lose anyone so highly regarded.

Players come back in all sports, sometimes Mayweather has the year off - comes back and dominates.

Sugar Ray Leonard had a LONG stint off. Ali, Tyson.

Jordan had time out of basketball, came back and dominated.

Trengove can come back and be a better player, he is only young.

I back you in Jack.

That is the key.

Playing Trenners week after week in 2013 was never the right thing to do.

Sums up the previous regime really.

Trengove will be very very lucky to play again

I'm sure the club will do its duty in providing JT the best medical outcome, and whilst I don't want to pre-empt further diagnostics, the club would be crazy to keep him on the list, rookie or otherwise. It's become unlikely his foot will recover to AFL standard now, and if it does, it's a very very long and uncertain road back. A horrible situation, but the way footy is, there's no room for keeping players on as an act of pure good will with no value to be gained on game day.

[censored]. Would much rather have him on the list than some late round spud.

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. ..........................................

Not clear to me at all. The Roos /Jackson administration has far too much integrity for that.

Is that your expert medical opinion is it WYL?

Don't bother answering. Rhetorical question.

Common sense actually Nasher.

Couldn't run and couldn't kick over 30 metres.

But Neeld kept flogging his "captain"

I hope you weren't one of the one's talking about loyalty and all. Keep him on the list and give him the best chance at a career. He's more than earned that.

I think if the opinion from the medics is he can come back from this then we do what it takes and keep him on the list. So I don't agree with you on this 'Webber', I do value your expert opinion though on this and other injury issues.

If it's not a good prognosis then I'm sure 'Jack' will retire, it's the kind of kid he is.

The positive thing emerging out of this, if there is one, is that it has obviously caused a rethink on trades. I, for one, would be wrapped to see us draft Brayshaw and Petracca (or McCartin or Wright) and watch Roos, Goodwin and Stone turn them into the first generation (for some time) of elite Melbourne players and the basis of our next Premiership ( which hopefully Jones, Tyson and Trngove are also part of)!

If there's indeed an irony about all of this is that the almost worst case scenario results in us taking two kids who hopefully tear it up for us !! damn :o

some us still prefer a ready made or two however...Still 2 days to go eh :roos:

Going way off topic now rjay, but while I've always understood you putting people's Demonland monikers in quotes, Jack's actual name is Jack, it could probably do without the quote marks.

Like others I am full of admiration for his attitude and resolve as shown in his tweet.

Really hope he gets through this but it really is a nasty injury that must raise doubts about the structural integrity of his navicular.

Webber just curious as from memory you work in the physio or sports science field, what was the foot injury which derailed James Hird's 1998 & 99 seasons and how does it compare to Trenners?

Shane Charter could help. He had the good stuff for Hird.

Just a thought, what if he failed the test intentionally? He wants to remain a Dee and finish the job.

I am not having a go at Trenners, but he could have over played a niggle to his foot.

So he faked an MRI?

Should be a KGB spy if so.

If he didn't want to go all he had to say is - I don't want to go. In the AFL there is full trade protection inherent to contracts for some reason.

Ok just wishful thinking, call me deluded, maybe I should barrack for Essendon.

KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
