RICHMONDThe Tigers have already acquired their main priority with Shaun Hampson joining them from Carlton for their second-round draft selection. Hampson fills the need for a big-man to help Ivan Maric in the ruck. The Tigers are also going to keep mature-age rookie Orren Stephenson as further insurance should one get hurt. The backline is in good shape with the acquisition of Troy Chaplin last year and the forward line looks OK, too, with the Tigers already ruling out Paul Chapman and Alan Didak as possible additions. While Taylor Adams appears Collingwood-bound, he would be a perfect fit for a developing Tiger on-ball brigade. All up, trade and free agency speculation surrounding Punt Road has been pretty quiet and it appears the Tigers are simply happy to keep their draft picks now they've got their big guy with a few – namely Matt White, Luke McGuane and seemingly Robbie Nahas – on the way out.
