Congratulations Bendigo Spirit, 2025 #WNBL champions! This team gives back so much to the Bendigo community and I couldn't be prouder. www.bendigoadvertiser.com.au/story/891204...

Absolutely superb second half by Melbourne United in game 1 of the #NBLFinals. Really ratcheted up the defence to take the lead in this series. Marcus Lee enormous in this one. #NBL25

My predicted Round 1 Richmond team. A bit tricky with some players being locked into certain positions but I think this is pretty close. Lalor and Trainor would be our Round 1 debutants if correct. #GoTiges #AFL tradablebits.com/thank_you/52...

Basketball can be a pretty wild game sometimes. Crazy game, crazy finish, crazy series. United through to the championship series. #NBL25 #NBLPlayoffs

Incredibly disappointing to not have Smillie out there in the early rounds, but playing the long game is probably the right choice. Despite our influx of young talent this season, it's quite possible we go into Round 1 with no debutants. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1724884...

My Richmond takeaways from practice match with Collingwood. - Team struggled to defend rebound footy. - Blight looks ready. - Short bounce back year incoming. - Trainor great in the limited time he got. - Desperately need a fit Lynch. Looking forward to watching the growth this year! #GoTiges #AFL

Hallelujah! About time our #AFLW program tapped into the Irish talent pool. Welcome to Tigerland Aoibhin! #GoTiges www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1721238...

Incredibly disheartening to read that Dion Prestia will be out for the early rounds due to an Achilles issue. Has constantly battled soft tissue injuries for the past 2-3 years. On the plus side this presents further opportunities for the less experienced midfielders to step up. #GoTiges #AFL

It's always rough when a rookie suffers a season ending injury before they even get a chance to show their stuff. I'm far from a Blues fan, but this news absolutely sucks. www.afl.com.au/news/1271024...

Not sure I'm ready to see Khris Middleton play in a Wizards jersey, even more so when it's against the Bucks! #FearTheDeer #NBA

Finally watched the WCE v Rich practice match. My Tiger takeaways: - Such a young team picked! - Slow movement from back half - Lalor as advertised - Blight and Kosi pretty decent in backline - Dow ok - OHB much improved Looking forward to the next game with some more senior players! #GoTiges #AFL

A fantastic article that I feel captures the feelings of many Tiger fans this pre-season. Not expecting a whole lot of wins but excited and optimistic about the next generation of Tiger cubs about to get their chance. #GoTiges #AFL www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/af...

No major surprises with Richmond's leadership group. Nankervis sole captain again, joined by Short, Lynch, Taranto and Broad in the leadership group. Great to see Taranto stepping into a formal leadership role for the first time. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1716154...

Good news Tiger fans! Lalor is good to go and Smillie on track for the Collingwood practice match. Lynch tracking well too. Going to be exciting to see the next generation Tigers get their first competitive hitout against opposition teams. #GoTiges #AFL www.afl.com.au/news/1267139...

Massive year for Hopper. It's absolutely imperative that he gets his body right and alongside Taranto, leads the way and sets the standard for the rest of our young midfield to follow. I've got high hopes. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1713470...

Shattered to be losing Middleton. Bucks have only a few paths to win a championship, one such way was K-Midd getting healthy and returning to the peak of his powers. That chance is now gone and I don't believe the addition of Kuzma replaces that. #FeartheDeer #NBA

Informative episode of Talking Tigers: - big change to our high performance program, led by Ben Serpell. "Play how we train" - Conservative approach with injuries. - More praise for Mansell's pre-season. - Broad really impressive speaker - potential vice captain? #GoTiges #AFL tinyurl.com/yfc3wknm

Judson Clarke on the wing? I don't mind it. Looking forward to getting him back sometime this season. #AFL #GoTiges www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1711441...

Sounds like we might be developing the gameplan a bit more this season, which is well needed. Looked very lost at times last year! Also a clear acknowledgement that we have transitioned to a younger team now, which was absent previously. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/video/171141...

This Lakers- Mavs trade has me in genuine shock. What an absolute fleecing. Out of absolute nowhere as well! #NBA

A couple of interesting titbits from this training report: - Bauer playing forward in the "A team". - Campbell plenty of "A team" midfield time; would certainly add some pace to the mix. - Koschitzke continuing to be played in defence. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1711356...

Looks like I'll be watching this one on replay! #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1710093...

Thankfully no major new injuries but still not ideal, especially for the first year players Smillie and Alger. Hopefully they are both right to go for the pre-season games. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1710030...

Jack Ross the inside midfielder? #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/video/170964...

Some sort of innings from Mitch Owens! #BBL14

Unleash the Geisch! #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1708150...

I know it doesn't seem like much, but comfortable victories against poor teams is a step forward for this #Bucks team. Showing some good signs. #Fearthedeer #NBA

Enjoyed reading this one again. I'm going to miss seeing the Dusty 'don't argues' or one on one contest wins deep inside 50. It's quite likely I'll never see another Richmond player with that same big game impact that Dusty did. #GoTiges #AFL www.afl.com.au/featured/114...

That's two miraculous #BBL14 chases in a row. Both the Gades and the Heat were gone 10 overs into their chase but manage to get things done. Incredible. #GetOnRed

How good is Test cricket. Fantastic series with momentum swinging from test to test, innings to innings, session by session. Australia too good in the end at home but India put up a hell of a fight. Bumrah player of the series in my opinion. #AUSvIND

It's absolutely criminal that Boland hasn't played more Tests these past few years. Such a consistent bowler. #AusvInd

That's as scary a collision as I've seen in cricket for a long time. Real flashbacks to the Gillespie-Waugh collision decades ago. Hoping Sams and Bancroft are ok. #BBL14

Really hope Kamdyn gets the 10 games needed to reach the 200 mark. Would be a massive achievement for a player who has given his all for the club. #GoTiges #AFL www.richmondfc.com.au/news/1706469...

Important comeback win by the Bucks to get things back on track as we move into 2025. Perhaps even more importantly, the team is relatively healthy for the first time since the NBA Cup concluded. The push for a top four seed is on. #FearTheDeer #NBA

That is an absolute belter of a catch by Sutherland. Didn't think he had a chance at all. #BBL14 #GetOnRed

When is Cameron Green available? We might need another batter for the 5th test. 😅 #AUSvIND

How good is it to see Casey Prather absolutely balling out in the #NBL again. MVP anyone?

The Bucks smack the Bulls and the Packers torch the Saints. Today is indeed a good day. #FearTheDeer #GoPackGo #NBA #NFL

Josh Smillie is an absolute beast on the rowing machine. Hard to believe he is a teenager in his first #AFL preseason. Primed for a big rookie year. #GoTiges www.richmondfc.com.au/video/170632...
