The Talking Tigers team lost one of its most valuable contributors this week, but as they say, when one door closes, another opens.

So when resident Tiger tragic Tony Greenberg was omitted from the TT side, due to a pre-planned mid-season sojourn in the country’s tropical North, a keen podcast observer pounced on the opportunity.

Regular listener, and Richmond stalwart defender, Chris Newman, stepped into the co-host chair, and played his role to perfection.

Among a swag of subjects covered in this week’s episode, the makeshift TT team discuss this round’s 100-game milestone men, analyse last Sunday’s victory over St Kilda, and preview the Round 15 clash with North Melbourne, while Newman hijacks Richo’s top five, running through the biggest Tiger metrosexuals in his time at the Club.

If the Tigers turn you on, then make sure you turn on to Talking Tigers.
