All things considered, what a [censored] weak comment. 

Good on Jack, great effort, and such an impressive competitor.

No it wasn't! We selected $cully as number one and most form experts had $cully and Trengove as 1 & 2. It was not our recruiting team's fault that $cully was offered a $Million+ per year to go to GWS where he is amongst their best players. Are you suggesting that $cully would not make our top 22 (or for that matter not make Richmond's top 22)? ?

Great interview on SEN this morning with Jack. Will try and find the audio when it comes online

Disagree. That's not the case. Its an unknown as to what Trengrove would have achieved.

Trengrove looked promising in his first 2 years before injuries and the weight of the captaincy played its part. 

Poor injury management and the influence of our 'high performance' coaches and development programs snuffed out any chance of many of our high draft picks reaching their potential.

Same would have happened to Martin if he came to the MFC and probably worse given he had/has his own set of issues.

Can't see a club picking up Jack to play AFL but can see them putting him around their VFL squad to teach and develop them as a playing coach then moving to an assistant or development role with that club later.

Not too different to Matthew Egan who had is career cut short and is now with MFC.

Trengove was a good solid player, big heart. 

But he was always to slow to be considered as such a high draft pick

i thought that long before he was injured

$cully never wanted to be at Melbourne and as an athlete, should never been labelled number 1

He is a running machine

the only thing Dusty can do is play football and we didn’t even bother to chat to him

It summed up those dark dark years

Clueless

Fuxake, fence.  Bet you weren't complaining one iota in 2011/2012 when Trengove was one of the very few shining lights in our pus side.  Tell me when Trengove re-signed in the face of 186, we were up to our neck in the Scully thing, and Dustin Martin was nobody, you were saying "if only we'd picked Dusty".

I'm all for slamming the club for terrible recruiting.  Decisions like the Cook and Gysberts ones were a joke.  But sometimes you just have to accept that s*** happens.  He looked every bit an elite talent for years and is clearly a quality, professional individual.  Nobody could possibly have predicted that it would turn out the way it has.

I don't get this comment. Why do you say that?

No MFC listed player wants to win the b n f in the 2nds. It means they aren't playing in the ones..

I wonder Nasher had Richtank had first two picks who they would have chosen!?

All elementary of course now!

As a young up coming player thats great.  But as a 25/26 yr old after being drafted as a teenager its not good for your career.

Pointless article as if was fit that preseason and everyone since his journey at our club may also have been far better?  or he may have been passed by the current first choice players such as Conca has been done at the tigers.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
