He is the best of our draftees so far for mine. For a key defender to be doing this at 18 is generational in terms of talent. Lalor close second but he needs to find more of the ball and build his tank a little.

Lalor has been our best. Trainor has been our most consistent.
On results that is not true. Lalor has proven to be less durable and less able to find the pill. Also Trainor's performance as a KPP in year 1 in my opinion give him the highest ceiling as he is not expected to do this yet.
Yes.

Ordinary take.
Cannot agree with this. Coaches votes and player ratings say Lalor then daylight.
Trainor has been terrific and we should be delighted with him. But for eg I don't think he would get picked in a finals team right now where Lalor would no trouble.
Still very early stages for these guys. The club will be delighted with them both.

Lalor has that ability to look really dangerous in the AFL. Trainor is not that yet. But his role is more difficult in that he is often playing on taller players and is more usually in general play.
It does look like we nailed these 2 picks. Alalor looks A grade mid/forward. Trainor, well KPD, wing, maybe forward.
Lalor finds the pill less because he is playing as forward most of the time. Easier (still difficult) to find the pill in defence.

Has the traits to be a serious point of difference IMO
Defensive efforts and finds the ball. It sounds perfect for him.

Can drop back into defense and intercept and hopefully drift forward with a mismatch. A Temu Richo if you will
Don't particularly care where he plays ATM, just keep pumping games into him.
HAHA go and get ****ed AFL. Daniel Curtin got the rising star nom for a 14 disposal, 6 mark, 6 tackle game. Trainor has had about half a dozen games better than that.

They're running out of options. By the end of the year the only players in contention for a nom is going to be about 10 Richmond players.
Still find some older guy to get the rd 24 nom instead.

3 more tackles in a winning team makes it a far better game doesn't it??????
I prefer Trainor in the back line as he adds some nice run and poise, he seems a bit lost on the wing.
I don’t like his flopping for free kicks, needs to get this out of his game ASAP.

There will be some Geelong spud taken at pick 80 who will get it for 5 touches.

How is he a key defender? Plays more like Broad/3rd tall
Laughed more than I should have
This is my only concern with him .... has had an amazing start to his career for the position he plays for his age ....
