cooko

i am a MCC member but also paid the extra cash to become a MFC member

i'm a big fan of this guy too....good to see you've used other sources to support this guys cause...i'm impressed with this thread and trengove

people...fast forward to the 5min mark of this link! fantastic stuff!

He was the only one with eyes on the ball!

at the 5:28 mark he shows a bit of pace too.. he loses the ball.. but a little burst of speed like that near the end of a grooling final is pretty impressive!!

Just thought I would let you know that here in SA, the media has gone ape$hit about JT..... His performance was quite staggering IMO

On 5aa (sports show) Stephen Rowe started telling Graham Cornes how he thinks Trengove is as good as Gibbs, McLeod, Riccuito and Wanganeen were at that age.... Cornes' response was, "The bar has been raised, he is better than all those guys at that age, I would put him level with Nathan Buckley".... Not bad!!

Those two guys are Glenelg boys, through and through and were praising the kid like crazy!

Luke Norman (Sturt coach) was just on the news here in Adelaide and said that Trengove will be a 200+ game AFL player and that at the start of the year he was touted as a Top 10 prospect.... But now he is certain he will go 1 or 2.... Was pretty stoked that he would go to Melbourne

Norman also said that Sturt is keeping Jack away from the media this week and that he is definately not going to be at the draft camp (obviously).... They just want him to concentrate on the GF on Sunday.... He said that he has a maturity he has never seen before in a young player and that his committment to the club on and off the track has been "phenomenal"

I knew it.... I knew he would come to us.... Thank you God!!!

Hooooooha!!! :wub:

Cameron Schwab on Twitter :

"Jack Trengove played the house down for Sturt today. That's got the twitterers twittering."

Hopefully this means the scouts were there to witness his display..... Got a great feeling he is ours!!

Cam also made an earlier statement whilst watching the TAC Cup GF

"Watching the TAC Cup GF. Anyone looking for confirmation of the value of choices 11, 18 and beyond should tune in. Bit of size as well."

:D

thats great news! hopefully that pretty much confirms we take him

what is the link for his twitter page?

Jack has said to me-

Has no preferences on where to go in the AFL, Just wants a crack at AFL footy.

I then asked him if the Dees picked him up would he have any temptation to go home like Scott Thompson did?

He answered-

if i got picked up i would love to be a one club player. there is no incentive at the moment for me to come back to adelaide. i can see myself settling down wherever i went next year. as long as i had a good group of friends at the club i went to, i could see myself staying there for my career.

So yeah thats for all the peeps worried about the Scott Thompson disease haha

your welcome

you spoke to Jack?? How? when? are you serious?

thats great news.. hopefully when he tells that to the melb selectors it will eliminate any doubts of him bailing!

id take him pick 11 maybe

:lol:

yeh id take judd with our 4th round pick.. maybe..

thanks for the updates guys!

i just hope the dees selectors are watching this game! Having Scully & Trengove in our midfield will be so exciting.. please dont waste the pick on morabito when we have a safe star in trengove!!

Guys, I was all over picking up Morabito at number 2 and was content with the idea of picking up Trengove but now that we have pick 11 does that force us to pick up Butcher at 2? Butcher regarded by many as easily the best key forward and picking up a player that is in Butchers shadow simply because we need a key forward seems a waste of a high pick when we could pick up a gun in Luke Tapscott for example.

1. Scully

2. Butcher

11. Tapscott

OR

1. Scully

2. Trengove/Morabito

11. Carlisle/Talia

???

i could be wrong.. but you would think Port will pick up Tapscott with their pick.. and if they do trade shaun burgoyne to hawks for their 1st round pick.. then there will probably be 0 chance of him being around at pick 11

So what, Fevola gets [censored] at the Brownlow. Good so would i after a long year. Chill out FFS

You all sound like Ned Flanders. Fev is a good Bloke who enjoys having Fun.

That is no crime....

i agree..

most of us have probably had a few nights where we have had too much and feel guilty in the morning! he knows he was wrong.. but i wish the media would get over it.. hes a funny guy who actually has a bit more personality unlike the majority of the footy players out there

HOOOHA!!!

now we need davey to sign on and we can sleep easy at night :D

Last week I had a conversation with someone as high up as it gets at the MFC.

Anyway we were talking about the benefits of getting Burgoyne to the dees. (At the time he was hopeful not confident of getting him, strictly implying that we wouldn't trade for him, the only way he was coming was the PSD).

I mentioned that if we got Burgoyne, Davey could quite possibly take his game to another level. He agreed and continued to talk about Davey in a glowing manner.

Based on this conversation nothing he said alluded me to the fact Davey would be leaving.

thank god !!

never go against the Dr

... ok so I was wrong about the 3rd round swap .. lol

haha still.. impressive work mate!!

..got any more gold for us??

Ok i will not reveal my source - you would not believe it... The very same source has said the following .. Davey wants out - to play with his brother, the players as a group have no idea what the game plan is and there is much anger about the C.J send off. I know i will not be believed but it was the same conversation about brock. We will have to work hard to keep Flash.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

losing Brock is pretty mental...

..but if we lose one of our 2 best players in Davey or Sylvia.. that really is F&*#ed

sorry ignore that.. just saw it on the dees site... wow

have you got the web link for this?

This is no rumor, this is a fact. Brock will not be at the Dees next year. One more star player is about to walk out the door with him.

another star is going to leave? i hope your kidding!! we need some older stars to stick around and teach the kids!!

The deal that has been put forward is Pick #11 for Brock McLean + swap of 3rd rounders.

where are you getting all of this 'insider information'?

why would the dees swap our 3rd round pick for their 3rd round in the deal? shouldnt they give us pick 11 and their 3rd round pick for say our 4th round pick and brock? he was pick 5 in his year!

This is what I fear the most from this rumour, a player that bleeds for the colours now wanting out? If that's the case then we are in some trouble.

It seems many here though are keen to move him despite a deep and continuing passion for the club (for all we know), which IMHO is just a terrible move. Mclean is the poster boy for a new kind of Melbourne player, tough and loyal, and a leader.

this is a tough call on brock.. i agree completely with you though..

Brock has almost been the new face of the dees.. he bleeds for the club, put his own money in, etc.. the dees are getting the reputation of screwing their players and not giving them much respect (which they admitted recently and said they would try to change.. eg bringing Woey and Farmer back for a club night not long ago)..

it is hard to judge Brocky on recent games because he has had so many injuries.. but he did play some good games this year.. just look at the 'demonland player of the year' thread where he rated fairly high!

having said that.. i agree with most on here that a mid field with Brock, Jones, Moloney might get a little crowded with similar players.. and getting pick 11 could get us someone like Talia, Tapscott, Jetta, Panos, etc

trade week will be very interesting!!

Scully and Trengove all the way!!

not a Morabito fan at all !!

Well done Gary

Sandy did a terrible interview with him after he won it!

agreed... what was with the Tiger Woods comment? random!!

Nice win Gazza!!

Swan and Deledio SCREWED me big time on all my multi's!! How the hell did Richo beat deledio when he only played like 3 games?? haha

i put $10 on Swan to win

$10 on Boyd to win

Goodwin most votes crows

then did a few massive multi bets with all of the favourites from each club.. got it up to about 11 or 12 and chucked $10 on it

nothing massive.. but enough to keep me interested

yeh thanks very much for the updates! this kid will be a star.. the dees have to take him at 2.. our midfield would be set for years after scully and trengove!

can you give us the link to the radio station? cheers

are you serious?

Completely agree!! KC you have been awesome with the updates! thanks so much mate!!

would love roughy..

..but no chance in hell the hawks would trade him
