Yeah we have this draft to look at cutting into 1/4 of that.

Reality is you can't build a lost with top end talent. You need a mix. We need to start also hitting wins in Rookie draft and will also hit free agency soon. I expect for probably a gun ruck as picking one up in draft is really 6 years away from a break out year and by then Lalor and CO will be FA available and we can't afford to wait that long to be back in top 8. As wed struggle to keep a hold of all that draft crop coming to FA at once. If we are playing finals it'll be easy to sign them.

So 8 players Andy, agree. 2 of them come this year in pick 2 and 3. Next year's first is probably a top 6 pick minimum.  So 3. Get 2-3 rookies to add and then 2 FA big names or trade ins on big contracts. We are cooking.

Shouldn’t there be a pinch of light blue for Derek Egg Smith

Over 1/3 of that is Richo...

Broad, Nank, Prestia and Lynch all to move on in the next 2 years you'd think.

Need to upgrade Ralph, Short/move on, maybe Banks too.

So yeah...another 6-8 players and we may be sorted.

Lalor's interview with 7news tonight:

Rampaging young Tiger Sam Lalor is fit and firing after an injury ravaged year.

The number one pick telling 7NEWS the mental battle was just as tough during his rollercoaster debut season.

No movement on the trade-front, but how far can these talented Tiger cubs go in season 2026?

TYLAR YOUNG

A deal for Young was inching closer late last week, with hopes it will be one of the first completed to start the Trade Period's final 72 hours. Richmond has eyed West Coast's No.34 pick in recent negotiations, but there has been haggling over whether the Eagles could talk the Tigers down to the No.38 or 41 selections. West Coast has been hopeful of moving up the board, so wants to keep as many mid-level picks as possible.

-----------------

TYLAR YOUNG (Richmond)

Linked to: West Coast

Now that the Eagles have tied up the bulk of their business, their offer for Tylar Young shouldn’t be far off being completed. The 27-year-old key defender looks likely to be traded for one of West Coast’s pick 38 or 41; the latter probably the fairest of the two.

Potential trade: Richmond get Pick 41. West Coast get Tylar Young.

From Barrett's Sliding Doors column. Barrett's a Norf supporter too.



IF ...
Kerry Packer once famously said, "you only get one Alan Bond in your lifetime, and I've had mine" ...

THEN ...
maybe, just maybe, Tigers list manager Blair Hartley has said something similar about the North Melbourne Football Club at some stage of the past year. Tigers secured North's 2025 first-round draft pick in a pick swap during last year's national draft. Tigers have got picks three and four in this year's draft. North's first pick is 25.
