THE OFF-CONTRACT PLAYER YOUR CLUB IS SWEATING ON RE-SIGNING EARLY IN 2023

Noah Balta

The Tigers have a strong list of out-of-contract players in 2023.

Some of those are veterans such as Trent Cotchin and Jack Riewoldt, who are coming to the end, while others include co-captains Dylan Grimes and Toby Nankervis, who are going nowhere.

The name that jumps off the page is that of Noah Balta.

The 23-year-old is emerging as a key member of Richmond’s defence and will soon be the main man down back.

His athleticism also allows Damien Hardwick to use him up forward, as a pinch-hit in the ruck or even in a free-roaming role where he can put use his booming boot to good use.

Balta will no doubt attract interest from rival clubs if he starts the 2023 season well.

The club could also do worse than tie down defender Nathan Broad, who has been in career-best form, while the signatures of hard-working wingers Kamdyn McIntosh and Marlion Pickett and talented youngster Hugo Ralphsmith would also be handy.
