YOUR CLUB'S BEST 22 PLAYERS UNDER 25 HEADING INTO 2022

What does the future look like at your club?

We have dissected each of the 18 lists and pulled together your club’s best 22 of players 25 and under.

The only criteria is that a player must not have turned 25 prior to the new season commencing.



FB: Tom Brown / Josh Gibcus / Bigoa Nyuon
HB: Rhyan Mansell / Ben Miller / Daniel Rioli
C: Tyler Sonsie / Jack Graham / Hugo Ralphsmith
HF: Sydney Stack / Noah Balta / Shai Bolton
FF: Maurice Rioli / Mate Colina / Noah Cumberland
FOL: Samson Ryan / Riley Collier-Dawkins / Liam Baker
I/C: Jack Ross / Will Martyn / Thomson Dow / Sam Banks


After a period of success, the Tigers will need to look to their next generation for future glory.

There is plenty to like about the club’s younger brigade with Noah Balta and Shai Bolton leading the way. Balta is the man to help carry the club forward given his athleticism and ability play at both ends of the ground. Bolton is a star in the making who can do it in attack and through the middle.

Three-time premiership player Daniel Rioli narrowly makes the cut for this team, falling in by just one month. He has been set up as a rebounding half-back in 2022 where he is expected to provide plenty of drive.

Draftee Josh Gibcus is an exciting talent as a key back and promises to be a central figure for the next decade, with Ben Miller and Bioga Nyuon the other developing tall options.

Sydney Stack could be anything provided he applies himself and can be effective at both ends, Jack Graham has future captain written all over him, and Liam Baker is fast emerging as one of the team’s most important players.

There is plenty of promise in the likes of Riley Collier-Dawkins, Jack Ross, Thomson Dow and Rhyan Mansell, while Hugo Ralpshmith already looks a player.

If Richmond is to again contend in this next block of years, it will be this group of under-25s who must take things forward.
