Richmond Rant / Re: Pass mark for 2026?
« Last post by one-eyed on Yesterday at 11:53:23 PM »Burning Question for Richmond in 2026:
Was the Tigers' competitiveness in 2025 a fluke?
Aidan Cellini, Patrick Parnell & Hayden Farquhar
zerohanger.com
January 12, 2026
The Tigers were one of the surprises of the 2025 season, despite winning just five games for the year.
A stunning comeback in Round 1 against the old foe Carlton served as an optimistic launchpad for a year of strong development from their crop of rookies and second-year players, and helped them achieve four further victories, including one over top eight side Gold Coast. They also came within a kick of upsetting GWS and St Kilda.
However, entering 2026, the consensus seems to be Richmond will regress rather than advance a rapid rebuild following an off-season of minimal player movement, outside of their two first-round draft picks.
That's an understandable call to make, given the Tigers' underlying numbers were largely comparable to West Coast. However, the yellow-and-black proved just last year why you shouldn't discredit their legitimacy as a team capable of recording a few upsets, and will likely build on the experience they gained from their close contests last year.
If they can hold their own for a full four quarters, rather than fading out as they did in close contests against GWS and Sydney last year for example, this feverish young side can prove they're ready to belong with the other 16 sides that finished above them in 2025.

« Last post by MintOnLamb on Yesterday at 07:04:20 PM »Is the stat kicks to advantage into fwd 50 or just any kick into the forward 50??Turns out Ross is our best kick inside F50.
YOUR club's best money kick - every club's No.1 (min. 50 kicks into F50)
Club Player Kick inside 50 to retention %
Adelaide Taylor Walker 56.7%
Brisbane Eric Hipwood 50.0%
Carlton Patrick Cripps 49.1%
Collingwood Patrick Lipinski 65.5%
Essendon Zach Merrett 54.4%
Fremantle Murphy Reid 66.7%
Geelong Tom Atkins 68.3%
Gold Coast Ben Ainsworth 61.0%
GWS Tom Green 55.1%
Hawthorn Karl Amon 58.7%
Melbourne Kysaiah Pickett 52.9%
North Luke Davies-Uniacke 48.8%
Port Jason Horne-Francis 48.4%
Richmond Jack Ross 46.1%
St Kilda Marcus Windhager 56.5%
Sydney Chad Warner 58.3%
West Coast Liam Duggan 51.7%
W.Bulldogs Joel Freijah 54.7%
https://www.zerohanger.com/the-money-kick-who-is-the-afls-best-kick-inside-50-172028/
47.2 IS The average yet our so called best kick into the fwd 50 is below that average and is the only one of the 18 clubs.
Its not a flattering stat for the team or Ross.
