Bolton locked in at the Tigers

West Aussie Shai Bolton has secured up his long term future signing on the Richmond for another five seasons.

The new deal will keep the dual premiership player at the club until the end of 2028.

It's a mammoth deal for the 24-year-old who earned All-Australian honours last year.

“I have loved the club since I got drafted. I love the culture here, all the boys, the coaching staff and playing at the MCG,” he told the club’s website.

“It was pretty easy to decide in the end… I am super excited to stay here.”

He was already contracted to the club until the end of 2023.
