The Jack Trengove is BACK Thread

Hopefully there is a good chance that Jack Trengove will play this week against Port Adelaide.

Especially with Bernie Vince now suspended for 2 weeks for his silly misdemeanor.

I openly admit to being a bit of a Jack Trengove fan so fingers-crossed he DOES play this week?

We believe in you Jack! I hope you play on Saturday at the MCG and prove all those doubters wrong!

 

Yes, Vince is out but remember that Tyson, Viney and Watts are likely returnees. 

Much as I love and deeply admire JT and his efforts at returning to the big time, where would he fit and whom would he replace?

    Really needed him in the clearances tonight...

    You'll get to see him in the clearances at the end of the year. :(

    This is just a hypothetical here so bear with me, but....

    We know JT is a FA this year and has the option of walking come seasons end. And, whilst most of us agree that the previous month has presented as the most fertile period for Jack to get a trot given the injuries and consecutive 6 day breaks, the club has not taken that opportunity.

    We are all miffed but are we over-looking the most obvious reason some players do not get played?

    Has Trengove already played his hand and told the club he's leaving at seasons end? I could then understand the resistance from Goodwin to play him at all this year.

    Plausible?

    Then why can't the club state this and congratulate Jack on the attitude and endeavour he has displayed. They could note that he continues to perform at a high level at VFL level despite no longer being part of our future

    That would open a legal can of worms...

    Both would be very costly. I think Jack has been a Melbourne listed Casey player  all this year. 

    Superannuation payments i would call it.

    Starting on the bench. Great to see him finally make it into the team! Best of luck Jack!

    Very happy with this, I admit I'm a tragic, and spew every time someone calls footy a business, but 3 jacks in your hand, is a strong hand!

    Stoked for Jack.

    Hope he puts in a blinder.

    Awesome, glad he gets a chance.

    I'd love to see him play out the year and lock in a new contract. 

    Well done trenners

    Stoked for him.

    What a fairytale it would be if he played great , stayed in the team and ran out for the Red and Blue in the finals.  He deserves it.

    if that happens he will get a nice contract extension too.

    Edit -  I just copied almost exactly what Abe said, I hadn't seen his post though, promise.

    I'm surprised he gets a run, but excited to see him do well.  He'll know this is his last chance, so hopefully he can fill a role for the side and show everyone that the game hasn't passed him by. 

    Good luck, Jack.

    oh my lord, just when you thought it was all over for JT, hope he carves it up!

    Great stuff, very glad to see him back and he definitely earned his place.

    Hopefully the start of a rejuvenated career for Jack.

  • Quote

    Very happy for Jack, I was worried he'd go the whole year and not make it out on the G again. 

    I'm thinking that Jack will move into Lewis/Vince's role as a half back general sort of thing and Lewis may move into Vince's role as a tagger. Salem will be back in the half back line as well for some class and we've got to Hunt and Frost to break the lines. 

    Really looking forward to seeing him out there again, would love him to snag a goal and seeing him arm in arm singing the song at the end. Along with Watts and Jones I don't know that there's anyone that deserves to see success for Melbourne.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
