Farewell #8 Trent Bianco

Bianco played at half back in round 7 of VFL. Played very well too. Maybe they’re trying to freshen him up and keep him interested with a new position.

My daughter’s favourite player. She calls him “Bianca”.

Will always remember Bianco’s role in the win against Essendon with Jamie’s kick after the siren goal. Bianco marked the ball from a Moore kick then kicked a beautiful kick to Jamie surrounded by two Essendon players.

The rest is history.

Had put on some good VFL numbers but time to move on.

Sad to see him go. If he was taller or faster he would still be playing for us. Had good football smarts, just not enough height or speed.

Another very good footballer who deserves a spot on a list. Ever appreciated for his pinpoint long pass to Jamie for that after-siren winner against Essendon.

I don't really rate him, but I would like to see him prove me wrong.

Bianco was the Captain of the Oakleigh Chargers premiership team containing Matt Rowell, Noah Anderson (both Suns but wasn't Anderson a Brownlow surprise), Cooper Sharman, Nick Bryan (Bombers), Dylan Williams (Power) and under agers Jamarra Ugle-Hagan (Dogs), Will Phillips (Roos) , Fin Macrae, Reef McInnes (Pies), Bailey Laurie (Dees) and Conor Stone (Giants).

Kaden Schreiber is a Collingwood VFL player now. If Bianco can't find another club, would love to see him stick around with the VFL pies given he was a mad pies supporter growing up but I can understand him wanting to look for another chance elsewhere

I understand why Trent got delisted, but it is a pity. Apart from the fact that he was a lifelong Collingwood supporter he has a real footy brain. He isn't quite fast enough for his size and McCrae and Allen would now have been ahead of him for selection in the firsts. But he still would have been a regular selection at any of the six bottom clubs. I hope one of them pick him up for next season.
