Not if hes lost his pace and is too slow we won't!!

That won't be answered until he's tested at AFL after he has had a couple more runs under his belt. You may well be proved right, but he is definitely good enough and an absolute inspiration. I'm backing him in.

There are some very good AFL players who aren't quick.

[MadAsHell 4,215]

A very disappointing night. Will give my usual run down when i get home.

[KC from Casey 7,117]

And that's it - a 44 point comprehensive victory to the Seagulls away from home.

Sam Mitchell is slow ....almost in reverse but is almost the best player in the league.  Luke Hodge would struggle to beat 80% of players on any AFL list. He is still an absolute star.

I back Trengove...

Jack Trengove is also one of the clubs best Aerobic athletes at the club, i really think the interchange cap suits him perfectly.

Sam Mitchell is slow over 20 metres but very quick over five metres.

Sam Mitchell is lightning fast with his kicking.

Sam Mitchell is lightning fast with his handpassing.

Sam Mitchell is lightning fast with his decision making.

Actually his 3rd.

Statistically correct but I don't count 4 minutes as playing a game of football which is why I said virtually.

[Adam The God 30,421]

I do want to reiterate something. I hope Trenners makes it back and I still think he can, but I wouldn't have him in our midfield.

Did enjoy some of his leadership. Really supporting the younger MFC listed blokes.

Petracca looks explosive and exciting breaking away from stoppages. He's a nice kick. He executed another of those 35m kicks that barely got off the ground but went straight down Trenners' throat.

Very lippy as many have stated. At the huddles you could hear him demanding more of his team mates. During the three quarter time huddle he was getting on Grimes' back about having a lot more time than he thought and ensuring he used it better.

Jack Trengove has missed two years of footy, has played just 3 games in his comeback.  

Lets give the bloke a chance before stamping his papers as too slow and finished.    

For [censored] sake he has busted his arse to get over this injury and get back on the park.  For that alone he deserves our praise and admiration.

Reading some comments you get the feeling that people are actually willing him to fail because it suits their narrative.

Exactly, Trengove just doesn't have those smarts. He can compete but he gets caught easily

[What 18,810]

Going to make the prediction now that was the last game Christian Petracca ever plays for Casey

Who said anything about Trengove?  I was talking about Mitchell.

In response to someone backing Trengove.  By stating those things about Mitchell you were suggesting that Trengove was none of those things. 

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Anyone got the full time stats?

I think you need to be banned my friend, clearly you really haven't a clue who ayou are talking about and so in your delusional state then clearly we need to act against your none to clear rhettoric! 

[DistrACTION Jackson 9,246]

So Trengove has 30 touches and 2 goals in his 2nd full game back and half of Demonland is writing him off?

I really need to stop coming on here!

Whats grimes been doing wrong. Is it poor disposal? Thanks for the coverage

Tries to take on tacklers and gets caught and his poor decision making and disposal lets him down. 

It did seem as though our game plan falls down because we have too many blokes who turn it over under no pressure. Terlich is a major culprit.

No I wasn't, I was suggesting that it's a myth that Mitchell is slow.

Trenners is on the right path. I can't see him not breaking into the side with these type performances.

You're the poster who used to call Trengove slow at everything he does, including speaking, right?

From what has been mentioned over the last few weeks he isn't lightning but is not as slow as when he was suffering from that foot (he looked live he was in quicksand). I reckon he will get back to AFL in the net one or two weeks and will play as a utility all over the ground.
