Do you reckon a post like this has ever been seen on a Collingwood supporter's website. 

 

Wish I was in Tuscany!

Be a brave pies supporter to admit he'd worn a Demons scarf (-;

 

edit: assuming your going to the game - look for my mum on the train getting on in Castlemaine 70 something with scarf - she'll be giving it to any opposition supporter in colours.

Great story. I would play Trengove on Mitchell this week.

The Collingwood version:

My partner de facto is having her 40th parole hearing on Saturday, we've hired a villa lawyer in Tuscany a back alley, and have friends flying cahns from everywhere for a James Bond fancy dress party pissup after. I think James Bond our lawyer is going to have a demons scarf punch on.

 

P.S. Congrats Trenners. (That's from me, not the Collingwood supporter)

No matter what happens on the weekend, this is truly awesome stuff.

Just saw the Media Conference and the "Announcement". The way the players showed their appreciation of Jack's return showed the respect he has earned. Would really love Jack Grimes to be with him, but that is the next step.

His media conference showed the quality of the person and well done to Melbourne for the way he has been managed . Even if he does not get a kick or whatever ( although I doubt that) this has got to rank with as good a sporting story for yonks !!! (Apologies to Daniel Menzel, but we are biased here. )

I know we often harp back to the "Dark Ages" but the quality of Jack Grimes and Jack Trengrove as young people are a credit to their resilience and upbringing ( and a credit in the way they have managed themselves for the positions they were in). They are both showing the quality of the people they are. If all Melbourne players were of these blokes standards, then the Club is in great hands. 

Go Jack !!! ( and hopefully other jack joins him soon )

Met Trenners up in Darwin a few years ago. I was a bit [censored] but he was well mannered , listened to my ramblings and was very pleasant. A lovely young man and he deserves every success .

The team last time Jack played, divided into those still with the Dees:

Nathan Jones, Vince, Tyson, Watts, Grimes, Matt Jones, Dunn, McDonald, Pedersen, Michie, Kennedy-Harris, Spencer.

And those not:

Cross, Frawley, Terlich, Toumpas, Georgiou, Bail, Byrnes, Howe, Fitzpatrick.

The ABC said there were only 4 playing Saturday that played with him on that fateful day.

Who do they think isn't playing Sat.?

Perhaps a temporary 're-Jack-ing' of the banner, for this week, is warranted????

That would have to be a high-jack of course ...

Interesting. I can't see any of them missing so probably just miscounted?

That makes at min. Two of us BD. 

Late spring lovely in Tuscany in June.

Looks in easily the best shape of his career. Good luck Jack.

Nah that was 186 I think. 

I hope he plays at least another 19 games.  There are some spectacular genes in the boy

So happy for Jack. A long time coming and so well deserved. As I've said before, this feels like the end of our dark period and Jack mirrors that horror journey so well. 

I just hope this is the end now and we get to enjoy 100 more games from him. 

My first game of 2016 and I'm just beyond excited to cheer him on, even though I think we will get smashed.

THEN...

B Lynden Dunn, James Frawley, Dean Terlich

HB Jack Grimes, Tom McDonald, Daniel Cross

C Jack Trengove, Dom Tyson, Matt Jones

HF Jack Watts, Cameron Pederson, Jimmy Toumpas

F Jeremy Howe, Jack Fitzpatrick, Shannon Byrnes

FOL Jake Spencer, Nathan Jones, Bernie Vince

I/C Viv Michie, Alex Georgiou, Rohan Bail

SUB Jay Kennedy-Harris

 

NOW...

B: Jayden Hunt, Tom McDonald, Neville Jetta

HB: Tom Bugg, Oscar McDonald, Josh Wagner

C: Dean Kent, Jack Trengove, Bernie Vince

HF: Billy Stretch, Jack Watts, Jeff Garlett

F: Christian Petracca, Jesse Hogan, Chris Dawes

Foll: Max Gawn, Nathan Jones, Dom Tyson

I/C: Clayton Oliver, Sam Frost, Aaron vandenBerg, James Harmes

I count 12 players in the side this week Trengove would not have played a game with excluding VFL games this year: Hunt, Bugg, McDonald, Wagner, Stretch, Garlett, Petracca, Hogan, Oliver, Frost, vandenBerg and Harmes.  

I know he's been there the whole time so it's not as if he's meeting them for the first time, but it will be a pretty different looking side to the last ones he played in!

The Melbourne stereotype is alive and well.

Not sure if anyone was listening, but I called SEN this morning on the hallelujah segment and gave a HALLELUJAH TO JACK TRENGOVE BABBBYYYYYYYY

Can't wait to see him run through the banner this weekend. GO DEES!

We have to do that every day, what do we deserve?

And it only took him 797 days to get over it.

Welcome back home Jaded. Hope you are wrong about getting smashed though. Go Jack Trengove!
