Trengove sighting, having lunch at High Street near Chapel

Nothing more to add :D :D :D

Did you ask him about the soccer, PS3, or his cat?

Posted

He is a determined and resourceful young man who has a passion for the game. From a positive point of view, (sick of the never ending negativity about us) I believe he will return and play an important role in our future success.

Devastated that TDI wasn't able to get the scoop via Twitter and it was Dave Misson that broke the news.

I guess there's always tomorrow.

TDI, can you ask Jack if Dave Misson is in fact correct?

Cup half empty is we never see what could of been as his foot will never heal.

Cup half full is that two former number 2 draft picks explode out of the blocks next year showing everyone why the were rated so highly.

Look, I'm sympathetic with the recent frustration at TDI's antics, but you are kind of inviting it with posts like this.

Yeah, I know.

Can't you just ban him?

Perhaps he and club thought a fresh start at another club was the best thing for him, he went for the medical, so he must have been willing to go, rather than being offloaded as you say, I have spoken to him previously about his, and is quite comfortable with the whole scenario. Main thing now is to get fit and see what happens, will try and speak to him tomorrow if he appears in the fresh air, hasn't tweeted, could have been advised not to and let Misson in his injury report update officially

C'mon mate don't act surprise that he hasn't tweeted you back..

No didn't meltdown old chap, just McQueen with his usual standard of input to a topic

Didn't think Jack would reply but worth a try, good to see it in the injury report, hopefully he can now look forward

Antics, Nash I am shocked, I take every poster seriously on here.....believe me........

Contrary to popular belief, some have replied, but they send me direct messages

I have also posted replies from Burgo and a couple of other admin staff

Stopped reading your posts but thought I would answer this one

I think Trengove is "Cactus" I reckon the club knew it and therefore a trade with Richmond was always going to be a win for us!

Unless a miracle occurs I cannot see him at the club next year!

I would be aghast if he was offered a new contract on the basis that he may come back.

I reckon his dwindling pace will be further compromised and in view of where we are at I don't believe we should be looking at him sticking around next year.

Time to pass! and move on!

Sounds like a good idea. And at this time, late March, how should we do that? (Rhetorical question - of course I expect you to have NFI.)

Obviously you don't do it now! I refer to the end of this year! Surely that is OBVIOUS!

Jack's foot is tracking well according to Misson's injury report on the MFC site

That's football speak for "We have NFI when he'll play again".

If Trengove does come back, he'll have to reinvent his game. Can't see him being an explosive mid or a half forward. If he can get his kicking ability back, would't mind seeing him play as a half back. He reads the play well and has clean hands.

If he can't get his kicking or any explosiveness back than he won't get a look in let alone try and reinvent himself.

I love Trenners as a player and have complete faith he will get back and become a best 22 player next year. Others before him have gotten through this and with the kid as professional as he is and diligent with his recovery I am sure he will get through fine.

Note - I don't know Jack personally, I am simply assuming he is the professional and diligent type.

Good to have a learned orthopaedic opinion from Professor Picket.

Can you fix my bunions?

How do we know he can play? Can you refresh my memory.

Maybe you're memory is failing but as a 19-20 year old he played good football. Not just "promising young potential" stuff, he was contributing, averaging 20+ disposals showing strong overhead capabilities for a mid, strong tackling and a good kick. He also had good pace over 5 meters.

He had played 80 games and while he struggled in his last season due to injury he was still not our worst.

We've seen he can play. If he regains those physical attributes he will be a player. The question is can he get fit, not can he play.

Ok, I am calling this one now. Jack will be back with Casey in July and in the senior team in August. Call me an idiot now if you like, and revisit this in September to confirm or deny. But the dreamer in me has won out.

I think if Trenners can get two games in with casey at the end of the year if would be a great achievement.

Even better if they are two BOGs!

Posted

His future will depend on how his body responds to a fuller training schedule once cleared. He can't afford another set back if he plans to play again.

I think trenners is an incredibly hard worker and will find a way back to senior footy. I think expectations should be in check, as he can't be the player he once was and we still don't know what that looks like yet.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    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.
