Talking Tigers: Episode 425

About this episode

The episode discusses the impressive debut of Richmond's Sam Grlj and features praise for fellow young player Sam Lalor, along with a historical look at a past match.

The sizzling Round 1 AFL debut of Richmond young gun Sam Grlj is a hot topic of conversation on the latest episode of Talking Tigers. The TT team tell what excited them about Grlj’s performance against Carlton, and why he’s going to be a pivotal member of Richmond’s line-up. Another super-talented teenage Tiger Sam, Lalor, receives plenty of praise as well for his dynamic display last Thursday night. Also on this week’s bumper show, Richmond great Matthew Richardson leaps to the defence of the Club’s current-day star key forward Tom Lynch. The new A-Z wheel segment spins up a trio of “O so good” Tiger presidents. And in “60 Years of MCG Memories”, the focus is on Richmond’s Round 1, 1982 match against North Melbourne, which was jam-packed with highlights. For all things Yellow and Black, make sure you tune in to Talking Tigers. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
