    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.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
