Richmond Rant / Who will make their debut first in 2026?

The players at each AFL team most likely to earn a debut in 2026

By Mitch Keating

21 Dec 2025

Richmond

Rookies: Sam Cumming, Zane Peucker, Noah Roberts-Thomson, Sam Grlj

Still waiting: Patrick Retschko, Oliver Hayes-Brown, Josh Smillie

Most likely to debut: A run free of injuries will hopefully see 2024 Pick 7 selection Josh Smillie get his chance at a debut, with soft-tissue setbacks continuing to plague the big-bodied midfielder. Pat Retschko could get a look after earning a career lifeline at Punt Road, while Sam Cumming and Sam Grlj will both be a chance of debuts come Round 1.

Alex Carey was named man of the match.

Starc with 3 wickets today and Boland the last one.

Lyon (hammy) likely to replaced by one of Murphy (Vic), Kuhnemann (Tas) or Rocchiccioli (WA) for the Boxing Day Test.

It’s a tough gig carrying Nathan Lyon 🤣🤣🤣

I stand corrected at this point in time

I've just seen 3 wickets from Lyon and am loving my humble pie.

He's just sealed the series.

Done a hammy
And now we can see how much he’s missed
Travis Head isn’t the option

He can't stay on the park anymore.
Same as Hazelwood.

It's a shame. We'll need to find a new spinner. At least he made it count but he won't be seen again this series/maybe ever.
