Countdown to D-Dayafl.com.au
Sat 16 Oct, 2010RICHMONDNAB AFL Draft selections: 6, 29, 46, 50, 63, plus end-of-round-one compensation selection (Nathan Bock)
Delistings and retirements: Andrew Collins (Carlton), Ben Cousins, Troy Simmonds, Richard Tambling (Adelaide)
Additions: Shaun Grigg (Carlton)
Approach:Having picked up Shaun Grigg from Carlton in trade week, and with disgruntled Essendon midfielder Bachar Houli expected to come on board in the pre-season draft, the Tigers have plenty of midfield depth. What they need most is a tall defender with good skills who can help out Chris Newman in the backline. With Tyrone Vickery taking time to prove himself, a young ruckman would be another handy addition.
Dream selection: Skilful South Australian wingman Jared Polec is a likely contender to be taken by the Tigers with pick six, but given that they need a ruckman, Norwood beanpole Daniel Gorringe shapes as another genuine possibility.
