Josh Gibcus (one game in 2025)
The Tigers defender has endured a tough injury run after an impressive first year in the AFL. The No.9 pick in 2021, Gibcus played 18 games the following year but has featured just three times since. Gibcus missed all of 2023 due to a nightmare hamstring tendon injury before tearing his anterior cruciate ligament in early 2024. The Tigers were patient with Gibcus and after a run of VFL games, he played his first AFL game in 527 days against Geelong in the final round of the 2025 season. The Tigers will also be hoping Josh Smillie, the No.7 pick in the 2024 draft, can make his debut after injury ruined his 2025 season, and that young gun Sam Lalor plays more than 11 games in 2026.
