Who is our best Rising Star hope this year?

This is your club’s best Rising Star chance

RICHMOND

The scariest thing about the Tigers’ list is that some of the kids vying for selection have all the hallmarks of stars. Take Jack Ross, for example. The tough midfielder managed to break into Richmond’s side for seven games, where his appetite for the contest was undisputed. Averaging 17.3 disposals per game in your debut season is no small feat. Ross’ teammates Riley Collier-Dawkins and Patrick Naish also can’t be overlooked. Collier-Dawkins continues to evolve as a he grows into his body, with his VFL form late in 2019 a positive sign for the first-round draft pick. Naish, who has two AFL matches under his belt, should also get more of an opportunity this year.

Not sure anyone will get enough games.. ..you'd think Ross has both Pickett & Graham ahead of him now and Stack will surely come in now Bellis is gone....depends on injuries... :shh

Ross is more of a bull contested possession player Neither Pickett or Stack are this type.

It will depend on our needs for each opponent as to who plays on the day.

It may be that Georgey may feel the heat if Stack can put the pressure on that Georgey can and Stack has better skills.
