    It was widely reported at the time and a comparison was made with Matthew Richardson who had the same injury.

    There is a wide range of severity of the Lisfranc some heal OK but others can be career ending. It seems Clark has recovered from his.

    The problem with Trengoves navicular is that it had to be bone grafted and that takes a long time to reach full strength. The immobility required causes dramatic muscle wasting which will take a lot of rehab once weight bearing is possible. They are now using bone morphogenetic protein which is like a natural superglue to aid the strength of the graft so a good long term result should be possible as long as it is not rushed - and I'm sure it won't. The surgeons that do this are not going to risk a bad result.

    That's why I firmly believe Jack has a good long term future and at 24 shouldn't be written off.

    yes but I don't see any virtue in him playing this year.

    That makes at least two of us. it seems to me that 2015 was a write off four months ago.

    If he was to start pre season training in November I would be happy.

    Different values yes, you know Trenners is as loyal as they come.

    Pretty sure Clark did his navicular too, it was the sof tissue injuries that "flared" his depression.

    Clark did the Lisfranc not Navicular.

    I may be wrong but didn't Matthew Richardson have a Navicular injury. One of a few to make a comeback.

    Let's not also forget Melbourne was on the front foot to trade him 4 months ago.

    It wasn't D'Land who was trading him.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
