Tigers sign trio to new AFL deals

Richmond players Ty Vickery, Steve Morris and Bachar Houli have signed contract extensions with the AFL club.

Richmond have locked away three key players with AFL contract extensions.

Key forward Tyrone Vickery and utility Bachar Houli have signed two-year deals that will keep them at Punt Rd until at least the end of 2016.

Defender Steve Morris has secured a three-year extension, meaning he is at Richmond until the end of 2017.

The Tigers made the finals last year for the first time since 2001, losing to Carlton in their elimination final, and are widely tipped to move further up the ladder this season.

"Its a great result for the club to lock away three of our most important players for the next few seasons," Richmond football manager Dan Richardson told the club website.

"Bachar, Steve and Ty are all integral members of the team, and we look forward to seeing them continue to improve in 2014 and beyond.

"Pleasingly for all parties, we were able to finalise these contracts before the start of the season."
