Former North Melbourne and Gold Coast player Joel Tippett, who also spent time on Brisbane's list and most recently played for Williamstown, joins fellow AFL Kangaroo Sam Wright in yellow and black.
In addition to the major drawcards, Xavier Kennedy has returned to the club after playing with Yarrawonga in 2019 and the Tigers have also recruited Hayden Creenaune from Queensland.
“We're pretty confident we have put a good list together,” senior co-coach Jedd Wright said.
“We want to make finals firstly, but to win a final or two would be the goal.
“Everyone seems to have picked up a few, so it's going to be an even competition and if you're off your game you could quickly lose a couple.”
Wright, who will have Tom Buzza alongside him in the coaching role, said despite topping up the squad with AFL experience, it was improvement from within that would result in their goals being achieved.
“We are looking at our 21 and 22-year-olds,” he said.
“Players like Brad Tarnell and Sam Fowles are getting close to 100 senior games, so we're looking for them to take the next step.”
