The Tigers are yet to confirm their leadership group for 2018, but any changes to the successful 2017 model would be a surprise. A streamlined three-man group was a raging success last season, with Trent Cotchin emerging as one of the best captains in the game and Alex Rance and Jack Riewoldt providing excellent support as vice-captains. Riewoldt flourished in the role after a prolonged absence, and superstar Dustin Martin could be a player the Tigers look to add if any change is made. The Tigers have confirmed their group in mid-March in recent seasons, through a player vote and consultation with football department staff, the club executive and a leadership consultant. - Nathan Schmook
