2025 Player Reviews: #24 Trent Rivers

Featured Replies

 

Went backwards as a mid this year but seemed to spend much less time in the role.

Didn't seem to have a great year.

But how many did?

Hope he tears it up in 2026.

Would like to see him train as a mid this off season and get him ready for a huge midfield role next season, has the perfect combination of an inside outside mid

Yep

Sums up the team and makes you wonder if next year will be any different.

Ageing backline, non functioning forward line and one dimensional midfield.

If we put Petty in defence than with him and Turner it's young.

I'm sure King won't persist with that old madness.

Today is world rivers day. I salute you Trent Rivers!

It feels as though Trent still has another gear or two left in him.

I don't want to say he's stagnated, but it's clear that playing him primarily off half back hasn't done his development much good when he's shown tremendous ability in the midfield.

Here's hoping King can bring out the best in Rob next season and onwards.

 

i think he'll be strongly tempted with a move home in two years, he seems to always be sniffing around one whiff of midfiekd minutes and he'll be off, likely will be the same time JOM is ready to hang them up for the dockers

He did train as a mid,Goody and the fd didn't use him,sure he makes a few mistakes but when the session was lost thats when they had a free hit

Yeah ik was excited to see him in the mid, I understand we had a few injuries in the backline at the beginning of the year, but would of liked to have seen us trust our back depth rather then throw rivers back to defence

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Recent meetings between Melbourne and Carlton have developed a striking and somewhat familiar narrative, underscored by a series of closely contested encounters ultimately decided by narrow margins. The Blues have won out on each of the past four occasions:-

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
