What Role Was Luke Trainor Building Toward at Richmond?
Updated: Aug 30
The full RTSSG member feature, 🐯 Tiger Luke Trainor Glow-Up Is Real 🐯, starts with a Richmond question that deserves to stay open a little longer.
Luke Trainor entered his second AFL season after adding visible size and strength. His reading of the play and intercept ability were already central to the discussion around his development.
Does extra strength simply make Trainor better at the role he already had, or does it open a different job altogether? Can Richmond use him as a loose interceptor and still trust him on stronger opponents? Which defensive combination gives his reading of the play the most value? And what would count as a genuine year-two leap?
Is the obvious reading actually the right one? What changes when the next piece of evidence is added? And what would Richmond or the people involved need to prove before the question can be answered with confidence?
The member investigation follows those questions further, tests the competing explanations and then makes the judgement that this Public doorway deliberately stops short of. Read the full RTSSG feature here.
