Player Watch Trent Bianco (Delisted 2023)

[jonmacTrag]

That second goal was a beautiful kick. But apart from his set shots can't remember one effective kick from him today. He'll learn from that

Certainly had an off day field kicking but has the goods - keep playing him and he should settle in nicely.

 

[domus]

He will be a class act but had a shocker with the ball in hand other than the two goals which would have been three but for the siren at halftime.

 

[domus]

I must be watching someone else then

Had a shocker with his disposal, Tradedraft.

 

[Robroy22]

At least three of his clangers were just inexperience. He probably gets away with not getting far enough back from the man on the mark in VFL and juniors....but senior players are much bigger (and have better reflexes) and WCE players blocked three of his "low passes" (which were struck well but just too low) by guarding his mark.
When he had his set shots, he had time to set himself up and he only had to kick at a target. And you saw the result of the kicks!
His kicking coach this week will work with him on getting more separation from his marker and his passes should hit their mark a lot more in future. The one "shank" he had was just a rushed kick....he is fundamentally a good kick (biomechanically) so experience will improve his % as he gets more games.

Hopefully he learns from today's game, he was trying to be too pretty with his first few kicks . He needs more games under his belt so hope he doesn't get dropped

He shouldn't be dropped he made a few poor decisions but experience will fix that and the only way to get experience is to play.

It'd be moronic to drop a good kick for some kicking errors. There may be some other reason to drop him, but not for those clangers.

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Most of the times I saw him fluff the kick , he crouched over T. Adams style and tried to be overly careful. Hopefully he's not modelling his short kicking on Taylor Adams

Do the Opposite

 

[Mkcaptain]

He has a better knack for popping for a goal than what I thought he would

He missed a shot, then was nearby when Dom Sheed kicked his.
His reaction was priceless, it was like that’s what you’re supposed to do, (kick the goal).
Next shot from near the boundary he nailed it.
Really like his attitude.

 

[grayza2018]

Just had one of those days, didn't he. I'm very encouraged by the signs he's shown so far

But he might be hitting a wall too, remember this is effectively his first year. He might need a circuit breaker or week as sub next week, to freshen up.

Agree. Showed his mettle with that kick I reckon.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Great kick, horrible kicking day. Still a win and he (and we) live to fight another day.

He did nail 2 good goals from 2 attempts late so at least he contributed positively on balance.

 

[76woodenspooners]

This game was a learning experience and he’ll be better for it …

… and no doubt he’ll have a few things to work on. I wouldn’t be adverse to him being dropped to work in those things in the seconds. We’ve got other kids who are putting their hand up for a game.

 

[Milo the border collie]

Yeah his kicking was a bit astray at time with the opponents cutting it off, maybe he has some technical issues to work on. Many in the know suggest he could be our next captain after Tay.

Please refrain from mentioning Dom Sheed goals ever again.

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Had a bad day. But would be sticking fat for the remainder of the year unless he physically starts to drop off.

Should be medical sub tomorrow

[sr36]

Great news Trent, we're making a twitter video of you saying blokey stuff at training. Oh, by the way, you're dropped.

To be fair he's been very poor the past month, his kicking is his only strength and even that's been bad.

He was not getting as many Touches but just last week where his Disposal Dropped off a But
