Valuable veteran key defender Robbie Tarrant must surely be charging home in the 2022 Jack Dyer Medal count.

You could mount a strong argument that Tarrant has been Richmond’s most consistent player over the course of the past couple of months.

He has negated every opponent he’s played on and conceded precious few goals throughout that time.

In last night’s draw with Fremantle at Marvel Stadium, Tarrant kept a quality opponent in Matthew Taberner to just eight disposals and one goal.

Tarrant, himself, had 14 disposals, three rebound-50s, five intercepts, six one-percenters and took eight marks.

He is clearly showing why the Tigers were so keen to secure his services during last year’s trade period.
