Brett Deledio
They struggle when he's not out there, and while he may have been one of many experienced heads that didn't have an enormous influence on Sunday in the elimination final loss to North Melbourne, he's still vitally important as a leader and forward option who can play through the midfield.
Alex Rance
There's a reason the Tigers fought tooth and nail to keep their full back when clubs like Fremantle and the Brisbane Lions circled earlier this year, and that's because he holds their backline together, is strong one-on-one and attacks from the back half while providing significant leadership.
Jack Riewoldt
Heart and soul player who bleeds yellow and black. While his attitude issues earlier in his career could have seen him at odds with his club – and he was briefly linked to Fremantle and Greater Western Sydney in 2013 – like Deledio and Rance he's since inked a long-term deal and it's hard to see him ever play for anyone else.
Other likely untouchables: Trent Cotchin, Anthony Miles
