----------------------------

Kaleb Smith

Draft pick: 49
Games: yet to debut
Contract status: end of 2024

Smith was put onto Richmond’s inactive list in May and hasn’t played a match in 2023 as he works through a foot stress injury.

Steely Green

Draft pick: 55
Games: yet to debut
Contract status: end of 2024

Green has averaged just 10.3 disposals a game in the VFL and his efficiency numbers are low in his first year with Richmond.

Seth Campbell

Rookie pick: 12
Games: yet to debut
Contract status: end of 2023

An adductor injury kept Campbell out of much of 2023 and he has played just three VFL games this year.

Tylar Young

Rookie pick: 26
Games: 16
Contract status: end of 2025

Richmond has high hopes for the mature defender, who has proven nearly impossible to beat in one-on-one contests so far this year. A brilliant pick up off the rookie list and appear bedded into the Tigers’ defence.

Kaelan Bradtke

Summer supplemental signing
Games: yet to debut
Contract status: end of 2023

Signed over Quinton Narkle in summer, Bradtke broke his hand in the first half of the season and missed a chunk of time. The athletic forward has kicked a goal in every VFL game he hasn’t been injured, including a haul of five in round 1.

Matthew Coulthard

Mid-season draft pick: 4
Games: 3
Contract status: end of 2023

The speedy forward made an impact on debut in round 19, helping Richmond claw back for a win over Hawthorn. He looked like he had plenty of talent in that debut and a heap of speed.

James Trezise

Mid-season draft pick: 13
Games: yet to debut
Contract status: end of 2023

Trezise has stayed in the Richmond VFL side since he was picked up in the mid-season draft and had more than 20 disposals in four games running recently across half-back.
