The Tigers will receive midfielder Georgia Stubs and a 2026 fourth round pick from the Kangaroos, with Richmond giving up their 2026 fourth round selection.

Hailing from the Eastern Ranges, she is praised for her pace around the football and ability to explode from stoppages.

The 20-year-old is also handy across half-back, but unable to make her AFLW debut, due to a dislocated ankle, suffered in 2024.

Standing at 167cm, Stubs is also known for her athletic ability, high-level contest work and willingness to move across the ground in support of her teammates.

Her tackling was a highlight of her junior campaign, and her blistering speed was on display during her Draft Combine, recording an impressive 3.12-second 20 metre sprint.

AFLW List and Recruiting Manager, Trent Mosbey, lauded Stubs' "competitiveness and intensity", and expressed the excitement to welcome the youngster into the Swinburne Centre.

"Georgia has developed significantly over the past two years, within the highly-respected North Melbourne AFLW program. We feel Georgia is ready to take the step in her development since being drafted.

"Georgia has displayed impressive character traits and very driven and motivated to takung her career to the next level.

"We are excited to welcome Georgia to Tigerland."

The AFLW Trade Period runs from Thursday 4 December to next Wednesday 10 December.

It will be followed by the Telstra AFLW Draft, to be held on Monday 15 December at Marvel Stadium, with Richmond holding picks 4, 22, 40 and 58.
