From the training sessions i've been to, this is as good as i've seen Jack move, i didn't really see him in his first two years but he just looks so much quicker and more powerful

Yeah totally agree he's a terrific person if he breaks down again hopefully the club offers him a coaching position.

Pretty sure he's been interning at a financial firm of some sort while not at the club.   I think that's the direction he's planning on taking if footy falls through.

I'm sure that it goes without saying but I would be stoked if JT made a successful return and finally achieved the status in the game he deserves after all this time.

He doesn't deserve anything

he should have stopped playing with an injured foot long before he did..

Not entirely sure that was his decision to continue SWYL.

You could well be right. It was a complete joke of a club whilst G & T were Captains

Neeld and Co have a lot to answer for and we are still paying for it now unfortunately in more ways than one.

Oh yes we sure are. Many people say the club has turned the corner

No we haven't. We are still teetering right on the edge. 

What we do have is a better list now. But until the players take full responsibility on the field (win more than 1 game in a row) we are still close to the fire...

Roosy's last year is critical+

Agree 100% mate.

That's harsh and hindsight is a wonderful thing regards the misdiagnosis/mismanagement of his injury. We should take into consideration that he was restricted by it whilst trying to lead the team as co-captain. Who knows, it may well have been a different outcome if he was injury free during that time.

He's put in the hard yards and deserves to play AFL grade football.

Harsh.

He was put in an unfamiliar spot to lead this club when he was far too young. The stress and pressure he put himself to try and lead this toxic club has now now taken its toll on him (something he couldn't control) and now he is working is absolute backside off to regain his football career.

He deserves every bit of success and good fortune that comes his way. He along with Jones Garland Grimes and Dunn are small sample of players still left who were went through the absolute horrors of the club during those dark years. For their loyalty and love for the club they do deserves success.

That's a low quality post, why would you post that you obviously never played any contact sport. Maybe replace the Sir with Stupidity.

Ownership/leadership/accountability. 

Vince is now talking it up, there are no more excuses left.

Trengove is a massive plus for us if he can get up and going. A real talent. the club needs a flag but Trenners, Grimes and Jones holding that cup would be massive.

I normally agree with you WYL but this is a poor post. Trengove was under immense pressure to carry the club he stood up for. When Scully legged it Trenners responded by signing on. No doubt him continuing to play was also political as far as Neeld and co attempting to save their skins. Trengove was a 20yr old caught up in a storm of shite

Harsh, bordering on cruel.

When Trengove's injury was first diagnosed,  he said there was a part of him that was almost 'relieved'.  He didn't know what was wrong with him, he didn't know why his body wouldn't do the things he wanted it to do; he didn't know where his power, speed or ability to 'push-off' had gone.  He was relieved to find out there was actually something wrong and where in his body the problem lay.  It was never a matter of him saying 'my foot hurts'.

He does deserve a go at his football if for no other reason than no one deserves the terrible luck that he has had this far.

This is rubbish WYL.  Is this an aberration or are you showing your true colors here?

Let us hope his footy career gets back on track for the next ten years so society can be spared from his financial career if it ever happens. He is a better person surely than becoming a financial parasite on the community.

No Munga it is not MM. In our new system I am just a shadow. I can not upload my preferred image. I will need to talk to DL admin for a resolution. But yes we need to  deal with all bankers ASAP!

They'll be third up against the wall, right after politicians and the Marketing Department of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
