She was also listed on the Fremantle roster for one season but did not participate in any matches. In 2021, Trend competed as a contestant on the thirteenth season of Big Brother Australia.
North Melbourne
During the 2018 expansion signing period, Trend joined North Melbourne as a free agent. She made her first appearance in the club’s debut game, contributing to a 36-point victory against Carlton at North Hobart Oval in round one of the 2019 AFLW season.
Fremantle/Hawthorn VFLW
In August 2020, Trend was traded to Fremantle ahead of the 2021 AFLW season. Later that year, she was moved to an inactive list to focus on pursuits outside of football and relocated back to Victoria. Subsequently, she joined in the VFL Women's (VFLW) competition, where she was named captain for the 2021 campaign. Fremantle delisted her at the conclusion of that year.
On 27 April 2021, Trend was revealed as a participant on the 2021 edition of Big Brother Australia, ultimately finishing in 11th place after spending 41 days in the house.
