I like the look of Trudgeon. Just seems like a smart young player. Was captain of Northern Knights last year. Good size for age - tough and clean

There is a lot to like about the lad. He had a couple of games with the 2's last year, during the patch where we didn't have anything remotely like a tall, he was shown up a bit then for a lack of pace and a feel for the game at the higher level. I don't think he is quick now, but he has developed a much better feel for the pace of the game. I am glad for that.
By the way, he is the brother of Paige, our AFLW defender.
