TrentRivers2022.png

After tasting premiership success in his second season at the club, the long kicking defender’s form slumped in mid year but he returned to the side for the run into the finals. More is expected from him in 2023.

"The defender played 18 games in 2022, but missed a chunk mid-season when he was dropped from the team. Forced his way back in round 18 and then played the remainder of the season. Has a year to run on his current deal." - Herald Sun

Rough year for Trent with injury holding him back, but I'm backing him to become one of the best medium defenders in the comp over the next few years.

I think our preferred backline next year will be Lever, May & Petty as the 3 talls and Salem, Rivers, Bowey and Brayshaw as the medium/smaller options and Hibberd as emergency.

 

Knee injury at the start of the year just ruined his season with form.

When fully fit as we saw last year he's one of the best young players going around.

Courageous, tough and a gun when fit. Hopefully a fully fit Riv for 2022.


Agree Trent Rivers is a huge talent is 6’2”” and 91kg, has pace and a bit of mongrel, would love to see him back to his 2021 form and as WOK mentioned would love to see him have a run through the midfield as well. Looking forward to a big 2023 from the “Riv”.!!

Serious long term talent. I would like to see him have a run through the midfield. Centre clearance potential for sure.

Gr8 name - it's a tribute to Farmer & Kossie obviously.

Love that he hasn't had a sook and gone home to WA.

Liked even more that though he got done HTB and had some turnovers in the finals, he still backed himself in to get the ball and didn’t go into his shell. He continued to ante-up, he just lost. Give me a footballer who isn’t deterred by mistakes over one who is filled with self-doubt because of it.

[censored] it and go again, perseverance through adversity. Diamonds are only yielded through withstanding pressure.

That’s a good sign. We need to keep the Riv. He’s only 20-21 and with 3 solid years behind him. Good pace. Good tackling.  Good spoils.  Good aggression.  Like his long kicking.  He gets into trouble when he tries to do too much or go for fancy short passes.  He’s very good when he sticks to his regular game plan.  

Glad to see responses recognising his relative youth and talent here; many of the comments during the season weren’t so forgiving.

He and Bowey found it tough to maintain form and intensity, but they’ll both bounce back. 

Trent will be an excellent long term player for the MFC; respected by fans and underrated by the media.  Has a great attitude to his football to compliment his talent.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
