Certified Legendary Thread Jack Trengove

[Theseventhhamster]

That and he wrecked his neck in a tackle and got moved to predominantly defensive forward.

 

[Tulip]

Trenners has averaged 18 disposals a game a year in his career
I reckon the Brayshaw comparison is much much closer, Tyson needs to work on his defensive stuff but his attacking stuff is good even though his kicking can be poor

Trenners is a country footballer who did all the small things well and never looked rushed, exactly like Brayshaw
Brayshaw averaged small disposal numbers because he doesnt get cheap touches

Agree to disagree I guess, everyone sees the game differently. If I had to compare Trengove to anyone, it would be a James Kelly type which is something inbetween Brayshaw and Tyson. We'll have to wait and see how he plays when he comes back, considering its been so long.

I dont disagree with a James Kelly comparison and Kelly is massively underrated when people remember the cats midfield
But Id think Tyson is more Finesse than Trengove by a long way

If Trengove hadn't been drafted by us and hadn't had the injury dramas, I think he'd probably be playing similarly to someone like Boak. Not doing anything amazingly flashy or eye-catching, just winning ball, using it well, accumulating 25 odd touches and kicking the odd goal. Would probably be six inches taller, too. Uncanny what this club can do to talented kids.

So what you're saying is, we are (or perhaps were) the footballing equivalent of teenage smoking? ... fair call.

More like teen pregnancy. Weight of responsibility on young shoulders, months of sleepless nights and after a brief minute of joy, life as you know it is over.

I so want Trenners to be the Resurrection Kid

God I can't wait until he comes back, praying he can play 100-150 games from here and have a decent career. Loved watching him play and there is going to be one hell of a roar when he kicks his first goal back at the MCG.

Trengove is a chance to return playing football over easter weekend at Casey. 2 weeks.

HAPPENING

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Ridiculous really.

 

[wowlace]

Good luck to the lad.

 

[RandB]

Fingers crossed.

 

[Ando727]

I feel like we'll still be calling trengove a "lad" when he's 34 and still trying to get out on the park for his first game since he broke his foot.

 

[Higgs Boson]

You're not taking it well I see.

Sucks will probably miss round 1 by the sounds of it but at least its not an acl or anything.

No. It was worse

 

[schmuttt]

Ridiculous really.

how so

 

[Crimson Azure]

Always stress when this thread is bumped.

Don't worry unless the thread title changes to: #9 Jack Trengove - FUBAR

I don't want to sound sacrilegious, but is it possible that jack trengove is the one true son of god and the redeemer of all mankind, may the blessings of the saints be upon him forever and always?

 

[schmuttt]

Certainly gives a lot of confidence that we still have this guy and Petracca to come back into the side. For the first time in a long time there is genuine competition for spots.

 

[ManWithNoName]

I was looking at going to the VFL practice match to see how Trenners and Petracca go. But it's on at the same time as our Rd 1 game. Stupid.

Same, so annoying! Bring back the curtain raiser!

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

He is fine? Why the sub heading? Reminds me of this with all his injury issues:

With Trengove and Petracca playing, Casey should move the game to Gosch's Paddock or somewhere else close to the G as a curtain raiser.

 

[SuburbanMe]

I'm all for Trenners getting back at it, but the way some of you guys seem to hold him so highly baffles me. I just see him as a VERY unfortunate battler. I don't think he ever showed signs of being a star.
