After a massive off-season in which the Saints went all in - bringing the likes of Tom De Koning, Jack SIlvagni and Sam Flanders into the club - the expectations for the Saints hasn't been higher since the late 2000s! With those raised expectations comes more media attention, with the Saints being arguably one of the biggest stories of Season 2026, so how will they choose to blend these new faces with the talented youngsters they have drafted over the last few years? Ross Lyon certainly has more to play with, so Rhys and Behm discuss how he can get the Saints back into finals contention this year!

Richmond have made massive changes to their list over the last couple of years, with Adam Yze implementing his own brand and style into what was an historic era.

Behm and Rhys discuss exactly who makes and who misses Richmond's best 23 for Season 2026!
