Trent Knobel
Trent Knobel (born 23 May 1980) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League. Knobel, a ruckman originally from the Gold Coast, was recruited to the AFL in his home state with the Brisbane Lions onto their rookie list. He made his debut in 2000 after a rookie elevation. After getting his chance in Round 14, Knobel held his spot for much of the season, and played in two finals matches. After a disappointing 2001 season, and with the Lions having an abundance of ruck stocks ( Keating, McLaren, McDonald, Macdonald among others), they traded him to St Kilda. After fairly limited seasons with the Saints in 2002 and 2003, his 2004 season was much improved, playing all 24 games and becoming the Saints' number one ruckman. Despite his crash and bash ruckwork and tally of 460 hitouts for the year, he was criticised for his lack of around the ground work, averaging just 6 disposals in 2004. This led to him being delisted by St Kilda, before being selecte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
