Jack Ross has bounced back strongly this year from his injury-interrupted 2024 season.
The industrious midfielder, who managed only seven games last season because of a foot stress fracture, has been one of Richmond’s most consistent performers throughout the 2025 home-and-away rounds.
He has played every game so far and is averaging 19.0 disposals, 7.0 contested possessions, 4.4 marks, 3.8 tackles, 3.1 clearances, 4.0 inside-50s, 4.9 score involvements and 293.0 metres gained.
Among the Tigers’ playing list, he is ranked first for inside-50s, first for score involvements, first for goal assists, third for uncontested possessions and fourth for clearances.
Ross racked up a personal season-high and team-high 26 disposals in the Round 22 match against St Kilda at the MCG, along with 10 contested possessions, six marks, a team-high five inside-50s, five clearances, seven score involvements and 440 metres gained.
Recruited by Richmond with pick 43 overall in the 2018 AFL national draft, Ross, who turns 25 early next month, has played 91 games and is now a valuable veteran within the young, inexperienced Tigers’ line-up.
