A PAIR of premiership Tigers have earned new numbers while father-son prospect Patrick Naish has gone down a different road.
After breakout seasons, Dan Butler and Jason Castagna have moved up the pecking order at Richmond, moving into the No.7 and No.11 jumpers respectively.
Butler moves up from No.40 this year to inherit Ben Lennon’s locker while Castagna moves in from No.43, replacing Jake Batchelor.
Meanwhile, Naish, son of Tigers favourite Chris, will take the No.45 in 2018 as his father’s No.6 belongs to Shaun Grigg.
