Player Watch #47: Cooper Trembath - 3mo after running around for Blackburn, has kicked 9.4 in 3 weeks - has signed a 1yr deal

[shintemaster]

Some truly scary calls being made here for a guy that's played 3 games out of the MSD and has a one-year deal.

Agree he looks promising but hopefully people don't drop him when it gets harder for him in year 2 (as it does for them all).

I know you're playing Devil's Advocate somewhat here, but this guy has it.

 

[Psicosis]

Should I just ignore the fact that CCJ started in the blue team ahead of Trembath in the orange team?

No one can really be that stupid, can they?

Well well well

 

[shinboner magic]

Don’t worry CCJ will show how shit he is today and never be seen in the afl again

 

[Nylex]

Well well well

 

[tales129]

Injured?

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Injured?

Played in the VFL game…

Thought it was load being managed actively playing 2s

 

[zoomba23]

Well there goes my theory. Good stuff from the coaches

heard that one before....

 

[RooInNorthLondon]

If we want to begin to turn the sinking ship around actually picking our best players in the 23 rather than running them out in the VFL would seem like a place to start.

 

[Disco Dew]

I’m getting real sick of their shit

 

[Devski]

Guys we're just hiding him for round 1. Its 4d chess guys. We wouldn't actually play CCJ instead of him.. right?

Re the Trembath/CCJ discussions, if X goes down CCJ will be the first ruck, so he has to get pre-season exposure. Also like it or not there is an option in the 3rd tall/2nd Ruck setup between a smaller more agile Trembath or the lump CCJ, depending on the opposition. I think they had a look at CCJ yesterday and I trust they will give Trembath time against the pies.

with the new ruck rules,it was completely idiotic to play two rucks who cannot jump,shows the brain dead people in charge,one is not even a footballer which makes it worse,if blind freddy can see this and they cannot then.................

Yeh and it's not as if we could just rock up with 4 more players on the day and give Trembath and Banch some valuable senior minutes too.

Edit: do what now?

Got to wonder whether Goad would have rolled out this week instead of CCJ - which might have been the plan.

 

[HugeJohnson1]

Trembath & Goad stocks

Yes would be the correct answer and these new rules I think as other have suggested will fast track him into the side

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Definitely still room for X around the ground, but Goad and Trembath for the main centre minutes.

Didn't believe it when people suggested he was managed and don't believe it now. I have no doubt that our ITKs here report what they have been told, but I simply don't trust what they're being told as being 100% truthful. We have a rep in this regard.

The warning was there when he wore the orange in the intraclub.

Now a full blown crisis after missing the scratch match.

I’d consider it match fixing if he doesn’t play against Collingwood.

I find it pretty annoying. Yeah, he doesn't have a stack of runs on the board - but the last 3 games he rolled out he kicked 3 goals without breaking a sweat. You have to respect that form.

Could he go back if they rub Comben out

Maybe Biden's love child CCJ can go back there since he's paid good coin to be straight into the seniors anytime he's half fit.
