Player Watch #47: Cooper Trembath - signed end '26 - 17 goals in first 7 games - Rising Star nom Rd4 - how long is the contract offer?

[Rod Stroker]

3 years in the 600s. Both parties want this to happen.

If you're his manager, you're probably advising him to hold off for now. No rush to sign an extension in April, when every other club will have interest.

And candidly, if he keeps playing as he has been, 600K/yr is well under what he's worth in the market.

 

[Pravda Roo]

Hi everyone any interest in starting this chant from 80s classic Hanging with Mr Cooper anytime Cooper scores a goal or even a point?

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

If he got his haircut he'd be 6ft 3

 

[R00StaR]

Straight up bargain.

Its about the right reward and insensitive to keep it going and prove worthy of a bigger, longer contract imo.

 

[shinboner magic]

Waiting for his breakout 5+ goal game where he takes it by the throat, no time like the present.. seems to have a good head on his shoulders

Judd had his breakout 5 goal game against the reigning premiers who were the lions at the time.

When some of our other forwards stop getting in his way, I think it will happen. He is our best chance for a contested mark in the forward line, the other guys should be doing their best to keep their opponents out of the contest and allow Coops a one on one.

I'd offer him a 4 x $800k contract without too much hesitation.

Yep. The brainiac brady could have signed him for 2+ years at the end of 2025.. now he’ll chew up 5-6% of the cap (deserved). Well played Brady, well played.. Fantastic management. He would have jumped head first at 500k last year. Now his price has doubled. Yippee

Midweek tackle

 

[itchyscratch]

The only way Cooper has let me down is that he should have been an electrician rather than a plumber.

Then he’d be our Mauritian Electrician Magician.

Hold up.

He was a mid season picnic who played 3 dead rubbers.

Lots of snoz criticism is legit. This isn’t.

Zurhaar got in Trembath's way at least 4 times in the Carlton game - in fact CZ provided Trembath with more opposition than Carlton defenders for most of the game!

If you couldn’t see he was going to be a future star then you are ******ed

Someone told me that out of contract rookie listed players become unrestricted free agent's, true or false ?

True. We can't let him get out of contract.

Correct, if the club offers them a rookie list spot and another club offfers a main list spot. They can move freely.

It’s how we got Hugh Greenwood

 

[Ashley B]

Just got a few of these

Lachie Young as well, if I'm remembering right.

 

[DocSholl]

Not sure if Dwayne was just in a hurry but that was the most awkward interview ever.

 

[Fart Cummings]

It's Josh Goater on the couch/step. Don't worry, I fell for it too so I double checked.

Yeah I was like, I’m sure that’s not Goad! Who is that haha

Greenwood was delisted by GC though. They were just going to redraft him as a rookie

 

[StiffArm]

Goad is a unicorn.

Better than a dinosaur? =P

Seems it's a draft priority to go after these kids with good character.

Trembath, Sheezel, Wardlaw, Kerch, FOS, Urqs, Hards, Threadgold, Matlock all scream professionalism and good character.
