Strong bodied youngster with all of the attributes to make it at the elite level. Plays well in defence but is versatile enough to play in most positions on the ground. Much will be expected from him in the years to come.

Trent has the right attributes to take his game to the next level. Every now and then in comes a draftee with potential.

This kid is the real deal.  With a strong preseason under his belt l can see him being a regular breaking the lines in the backline.

Is one that will take the game on.

Was rapt when he slid as far as he did in the draft. Got ourselves an absolute bargain.

He was excellent in his first season and looks as though he will have a long and successful career from here.

Wouldn’t surprise me if ends up as one of our best midfielders in years to come.

Can't say enough about Riv just does all the footballers things naturally and without fanfare.

Will star wherever he plays back it even in the midfield or maybe up forward to win the game.

Dont be surprised If Trent becomes a leader of the Club with Captaincy right in the mix. 200 plus game legend To look forward to enjoying his magnificent career.

with only 9 games played in 2020, he should be eligible for the rising star next season?

should join the likes of - gulp! - jordan gysberts as a player who gets two rising star nominations in consecutive years

oh, that's right...he didn't get one in 2020...

A very impressive young player, arguably the most impressive of our three draftees from last year.

You beat me to it. Best of the three IMHO (and the other two weren’t exactly unimpressive)!

For a moment I thought this thread might have been about Trent Rivers.

Great young talent with a lot of upside. I personally think his best footy will be in the midfield, let's see what happens.

Trent Rivers, Kossie Pickett and Luke Jackson our 3 top picks  in 2019.

 Three fine picks .    FD did their homework on this one.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
