Look i truly like this kid, like a lot. But I just don't see that dog in him. He's kind of like a glam car. There's a lot to love about it and it looks sweet, but it doesn't handle well in the rain and you can't take it off road. Trent is an attacker, but he doesn't seem to understand the defensive side of the game, and that's concerning because he's been a FB for a while now. In all honesty, on that side of the ball he's not that much worse this season than he was the last few, its just that his offense has dried up a lot and so that makes his other mistakes stand out more.
He doesn't have a defenders mindset, and teams are seeing and targeting that now. Robbo looks to relish the grind, he has a meancstreak to him and he also doesn't seem to mind going unnoticed. Trent seems to be a quiet kid and I dont think he craves attention or anything like that, but he seems to have fallen into this idea of what he's supposed to be and forgot that he's also just a cog in the wheel. Thats why I say move him forward and let someone who knows thats their role do that job and let TAA focus on a job that better fits his personality.
