Talking Tigers: Episode 24

Taj Hotton’s exciting AFL debut with Richmond is front and centre on the latest episode of Talking Tigers.

The TT panel sing the praises of the talented teenager for what he produced first-up at the game’s highest level against Essendon under the MCG lights last Saturday night.

They also pay tribute to another Tiger cub in Luke Trainor following his long-awaited AFL Rising Star nomination.

And there’s plenty of positivity around the performances of other Tigers in the clash with the Bombers – 250-game milestone man Nick Vlastuin, Tim Taranto, Jacob Hopper, Toby Nankervis, Ben Miller, Tylar Young, Jayden Short, Tom Brown, Sam Banks, Jack Ross and Jonty Faull.

The “Going up the Country” segment features a small South Australian town where a popular, dual Richmond premiership player lived after emigrating from England.

“60 Years of MCG Memories” highlights one of the most brilliant quarters of football produced by a player in the Tigers’ history.

While, in “Hidden Tigerland”, club historian Rhett Bartlett details a remarkable match in Richmond’s VFA days.

For all things Yellow and Black, make sure you tune in to Talking Tigers.
