A South Australian midfielder who rocketed to the top of draft calculations after breaking into a strong Sturt SANFL senior side during 2009, Trengove played a starring role in their preliminary final victory with 29 touches and a vital match saving mark in the dying minutes.

With the luxury of the first two picks in the draft, care of the last priority selection of the pre-expansion era, the Demons weren't forced to choose between Trengove and fellow boom recruit Tom Scully and both were drafted to the club.

After earning a nomination in the Demons upset victory over Brisbane, Trengove finished 4th in the Rising Star voting, two places behind Scully.

Despite controversially being outed for three matches for a sling tackle against Adelaide in Round 7, Trengove played every other match for the season and was one of his side's best midfielders. In stark contrast to his fellow draftee Scully, Trengove signed a mid-season contract extension and pledged his future to the club.
