Jack Trengove

[Ted Lasso 19,571]

He is too talented to not give the opportunity, imagine if we delisted him and he found top form at another club, demon land would blow up

[Deez 298]

deserves 2016. if hes foot isnt right with enough time for him to get back playing - it never will be. he must be making progress.

[dees189227 12,464]

would just love to see him come back and play nearly a full season or even a full one. Interesting though if he didnt re injure himself if he would have ended up at Richmond.

[Fat Tony 5,322]

We should have waited until later in the year to make this decision IMO.

[hells bells 2,023]

I still hope he'll come good. Seems a great fella. Deserves better luck than what he's had.

I like the Cross replacement idea.

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

Last year we tried to trade him, this year we gave him a contract extension.

How quick the football world turns.

[Qwerty30 196]

Where did we give him an extension of contract?

Also, listen to Petracca talk about his time with Jack below. Jack deserves a good chance at re-igniting his football career:

[Gorgoroth 13,190]

Correct decision by the club I reckon.

Good luck Trenners.

[Born to Run 204]

COULD NOT BE HAPPIER

Look, it may turn out to be a bust, but at some stage you have to reward quality people, and if anyone deserves an opportunity (and will make every possible moment one to repay the faith) it's JT. Good bloke, cruelled by injury and the burden of a bad environment.

Imagine if the best of Jack was on display next year. Will be the highlight of any recruiting/list management action if it happens for me.

Good luck JT!!!

[Sir Why You Little 37,342]

I wish him well

I have my doubts considering the running needed for the modern game, but the club has backed him

As others have stated he is still only 23

JT could still become a forward yet.

Trengove will not play another senior game at MFC! IMO

Guess you weren't a fan of swarta either !

Don't hit the road Jack.

[rjay 25,362]

This is what good clubs do...

Everything happens for a reason IMO.

Good luck Trenners u deserve every succes and I will be more than happy if it's at Melbourne.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Love everything about this decision. It's the right length in the contract and we've backed a good clubman who could still become a player in our best 22. Terrific stuff from the club.

[old dee 24,028]

Now when the 2016 season starts can we play him as a half forward please

That is where he played his best football he is not a midfielder.

Like Grimes we ruined him trying to make a midfielder out of him.

Of course making him captain did not help.

Best of luck JT.

Honestly, you are the biggest stick in the mud. We all know there's a chance he'll struggle to get back, we don't need you to remind us, especially at a moment where he's just been given some good news and the club has backed him in.

Timing of comments is everything and yours stinks.

[Moonshadow 17,678]

Wery subtle Ethan, I'll do some code breaking - but I'm sure I'll come up with Moonshadow.

Of course you will. Nothing is more certain.

Amazing that Trenners still has 2 months before he even starts to run. The guy must have an upper body like Arnie Schwartzeneger at his peak and the legs of Mr Punieverse.

You just love flogging your own ego.

Who gives a chit, well bloody done to the Dees on giving him the chance after the situation he was thrust into.

[picket fence 18,080]

Ah now don't go all sentimental like... you blokes!

Which club would offer an extention contract to a guy who.... however you wanta put it, was thrust up as a potential trade to Richmond!??

Sheesh no wonder we have not won a flag in 50 odd years!

Clubs that support their players and want to give them the best possible opportunity to succeed.

[Adzman 2,154]

This is a good decision for all involved. Trenners gets to prove to the world he can still be an elite player with a guarantee of a contract in 2016, and the demons get to take a punt on him getting back.

Without knowing too much, I'm tipping he took a pay cut from his last deal.

You are a dead set mate.

Il take Paul Roos and Peter Jackson decision over some senile old fool stupid remark.
