RICHMOND - BOTTOM FOUR

Ravaged by injuries this year, Richmond could reasonably see a spike in performance next season with a host of names back in action. Think spearhead forward Tom Lynch, promising key defender Josh Gibcus and up-and-comers Tom Brown, Tylar Young, Mykelti Lefau and Judson Clarke, who each missed significant time in 2024. Further, the Tigers are about to introduce a slew of tantalising draftees — including the No. 1 pick — and rookie senior coach Adem Yze now has a year of experience under his belt after a baptism of fire. Still, there will be significant growing pains, and the level of competition the club will face next year likely means it will find itself in the doldrums once again.
