2008 Player Review - #35 Trent Zomer

Featured Replies

Posted

35. Trent Zomer [196cm 94kg 09.06.89 - 0 games 0 goals] – rookie listed tall key position player from Eastern Ranges who spent most of the season developing in the reserves at Sandringham. Had a couple of games in mid season at full forward as a replacement full forward for Nick Sautner, kicking three goals in one but failing to impress in the other.

 

Reckon he'll survive the maximum quota on the rookie list (2 or 3 years?) but doubt he'll make it.

Work ethic is an issue and his footy smarts are minimal

 

Eh, ever since he was about 16 any time I played him his comeback to losing was "I'm going to play AFL are you?". That, the fact his teammates at South Croydon used to pay out on him a fair bit and the way my friend complains about the way he cracks onto her doesn't say wonders for the type of person he is..

Though I spose you can afford to be a bit arrogant if you're at AFL level lol

 

well he is right about the '' im going to play afl are you?''

That'd be an ok comeback at TAC cup but for 3rd division U18s I thought it was a bit stupid. Especially considering half the guys in my team had turned down Eastern Ranges the previous year because they had no ambition of playing AFL (btw I don't mean they'd all make the squad, but a lot were invited to train)

If work ethic is an issue, then Trent will find himself on the outer, because DB won't muck around to wait for improvement if there is no work ethic.

good on him if he does- not many can say that!!

Quite right.

Well apart from what I know of him personally, in the player review things from the Sandy games that was a constant in almost every match. Needs to work on efforts etc

Consistent with what I have heard about him.

He is then finished at MFC.

Hoping he comes back to play in our league so I can remind him of what he said :lol:

*edit*

Having said they'd his likely destination would be one of the more money filled clubs like East Ringwood or Vermont

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
