Talking Tigers: Episode 437

The hot form of exciting, young Richmond forward Jasper Alger is a hot topic of conversation on the latest episode of Talking Tigers.

The Club’s latest AFL Rising Star nominee has captured the imagination of the TT team and the Tiger Army with his highly-impressive four-goal display against reigning back-to-back premiers Brisbane in Hobart last Sunday, following on from a three-goal haul v 2026 premiership contender Sydney.

Also on this week’s show, there is plenty of praise for debutant Kye Annand, Sam Banks, Tyler Sonsie, Liam Fawcett and acting captain Tim Taranto in light of their efforts in the clash with the Lions.

In the “60 Years of MCG Memories” segment, the Tiger Time Machine travels back to a bitterly cold, extremely wet day in mid-July 1966, when Richmond pulled a surprise positional move pre-game that paved the way for a spirited victory over arch-rival Carlton.

And, in the “A-Z of Tigerland”, the focus is on two top-class Tigers who played crucial roles in the teams they played in.
