No movement on the trade-front, but how far can these talented Tiger cubs go in season 2026?

TYLAR YOUNG

A deal for Young was inching closer late last week, with hopes it will be one of the first completed to start the Trade Period's final 72 hours. Richmond has eyed West Coast's No.34 pick in recent negotiations, but there has been haggling over whether the Eagles could talk the Tigers down to the No.38 or 41 selections. West Coast has been hopeful of moving up the board, so wants to keep as many mid-level picks as possible.

TYLAR YOUNG (Richmond)

Linked to: West Coast

Now that the Eagles have tied up the bulk of their business, their offer for Tylar Young shouldn’t be far off being completed. The 27-year-old key defender looks likely to be traded for one of West Coast’s pick 38 or 41; the latter probably the fairest of the two.

Potential trade: Richmond get Pick 41. West Coast get Tylar Young.

From Barrett's Sliding Doors column. Barrett's a Norf supporter too.



IF ...
Kerry Packer once famously said, "you only get one Alan Bond in your lifetime, and I've had mine" ...

THEN ...
maybe, just maybe, Tigers list manager Blair Hartley has said something similar about the North Melbourne Football Club at some stage of the past year. Tigers secured North's 2025 first-round draft pick in a pick swap during last year's national draft. Tigers have got picks three and four in this year's draft. North's first pick is 25.

Lucky to get a game in the seniors after 4 seasons so I’m one who thought he would have been delisted , As there has been suggestions that they may delist other players who play regular senior games  the club must see more in him than I do.

2025 apparently his 3rd year after the first two were impacted by injuries.

Hasn't really had a good crack at it.

Hence I'm content to give him a go in 2026. His VFL form indicates he's got some talent and I'm hoping he goes the next step.

Heck, Dow has had way more opportunity and hasn't exactly lit the place up. I'd rather de-list him because I'm more confident he's a bust unfortunately.

I don’t believe you know what the club is thinking and but I was suggesting the club should have waited until they knew if Young was staying and as other clubs were talking to Blight and Kosi we should have waited  . Everyone else seemed to understood what I was suggesting.
 
I posted that about a fortnight ago
