Tigers Midfielder Grace Egan Told to Explore Trade Options
Richmond midfielder Grace Egan has been advised to explore trade possibilities, with the Tigers confirming that the 25-year-old is open to opportunities at rival AFLW clubs.
Egan joined the Tigers from Carlton ahead of the 2022 season (season seven) and played nine matches in 2025 after dealing with a serious illness during pre-season and a lip injury in round two.
"[Egan was] encouraged in her exit interview to explore her options," said Tigers AFLW list manager Trent Mosbey. "At this stage, our conversations with Grace have been about her exploring opportunities elsewhere. We will work through that and what a suitable trade could look like."
Mosbey confirmed there is no guarantee Egan will remain in Richmond’s lineup next season. Meanwhile, the club has delisted Charley Ryan, Lauren Brazzale, and Lulu Beatty.
