Cult hero finds his lucky number as Tigers assign jerseys

Richmond have announced their new jumper numbers for the 2019 season.

Cult hero Jack Higgins has taken lucky number 13, with draft pick Fraser Turner being handed his old No. 28.

High draft pick Riley Collier-Dawkins will wear No. 26, with fellow draftees Jack Ross and Luke English taking numbers 27 and 32 respectively.

Mav Weller will wear No. 16, while rookie selection Jake Aarts will sport No. 39.

Richmond’s list may not yet be complete, with undrafted WA youngster Sydney Stack set to train with the side in the hope of landing a rookie contract.
