Cool. Can we get this thread back to being about Trengove's progress rather than about why he's still on the list, then?

Sure but if someone asks a question or attacks my opinion (which is all it is) i will answer back as i expect you would to

Have you ever considered that Trengove wanted to go to Richmond?

Good article - gives Misson update on some rehab players and some insight on how we will approach the NAB games.  http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2016-02-05/well-attack-nab-challenge-misson

This bit from Misson is especially good: “Jack Trengove is coming towards the end of his rehab. He’s been doing a lot of work – and a lot of football work – in the last couple of weeks and he’s probably a week and a half away from joining in with the group. We feel like we’ve got his load pretty right. More importantly, he’s feeling really confident in that foot and he’s looking forward to joining in with the group – and the group’s looking forward to having him.”...Misson.

At this stage presumably only a training jumper

I'm intrigued that people are so concerned about Trengove looking slow during the latter stages of his rehab. Whilst I don't expect him to ever be the team speedster, I think we should wait and see what he's like when he's allowed to go full bore before conceding on this. And let's not forget that Sam Mitchell is considered a slow mover but he's still an elite because he has other attributes that compensate adequately for that.

exactly jack, & hodge as well is not quick by leg speed.  but they are quick of mind. they are natural footballers with footy IQ.

 

& Re the O'meara/Prestia boys, it never stops the hawks to recruit excellent mature players who are hurt knees etc. as long as they can get them up every week.  Burgoyne & Dew to name a couple,

If only the wishes re snagging a goal from outside 50 off his non-preferred would come true - unbridled joy on Demonland......

I am sure the soothsayers would say that was only because his preferred foot wasn't up to it, due to Mark Neeld

He's slower than Cliffy Young in size 15 gumboots it's sad but true .

no fear of that happening. The only thing that can fail for Trengove is his body - not his application.

I'm currently watching Tregove train with what looks to be the main group! Moving really well! 

Twisting and pivoting then stabbing 20 metre passes!

Great news. If he can get the ball, he has a great footy brain and he will know what to do with it. If he can hit targets he will walk into our team.

Did you ever run with Cliffy? I did for 10k and he definately wasn't slow.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
