    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.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.
