Shane Tuck set for his 10th season

RICHMOND warhorse Shane Tuck is almost certain to play on next year, continuing one of football's great comeback stories.

Tuck was talked out of retirement at the end of 2011 before emerging this season to play the best football of his career.

Tuck, who turns 31 in December, was rumoured to again be considering retirement. But those close to the midfielder say he is determined to play a 10th AFL season, buoyed by his form and the emergence of Richmond as a finals contender.

The Tigers have presented Tuck with a new deal, but he wanted to finish the season before discussing terms.

Sources said he would be more than comfortable with another one-year deal.

In a brilliant 2012 campaign, the veteran played every game and had 576 disposals, collecting 25 or more touches in 14 appearances.

In an interview with the Herald Sun earlier this year, Tuck said he was determined to have a career with no regrets.

"I just want to try my best, hang in there and be successful. If you work hard and do the right things, it just seems to work out," he said.

I wish some of my Yr12s had this attitude.

 

[eliminator]

This guy has to put in the leadership group. His attitude is outstanding as is guts and determination. He never backs down from a contest and never gives up

[Penelope]

Tucky epitomises what you want in a footballer the way he goes about it.
Hard, uncompromising and uncomplaining when he gets shafted.

Yet he gets keeps getting one year contracts.

Meanwhile Mr potato head jackson and his fellow tubers will continue to get multi year contracts.

[wayne]

I hope his kids turn out good players. Bit of Ablett, bit of Tuck in them.

we're not worthy

Forget your Yr 12s, how about a few on our list

Barrett tonight on the footy show said for the first time in Tuck's career he's got some leverage to work with in negotiations over his next contract. He's been offered a one-year deal and has already upped the rate since the original offer was put on the table. According to Barrett, Tucky has gone on holidays to think about his future and may even go to the RFC well a third time when he gets back to squeeze out some more money.
