Richmond star Marlion Pickett is in custody after being charged with alleged burglary charges and will appear in Perth Magistrates Court on Monday to apply for bail.
Richmond confirmed in a statement the charges related to alleged offences in December 2022 and January 2023.
His manager Anthony Van Der Wielen told The Age that Pickett “has a strong intent to defend himself against the charges”.
The club nor his manager will make no further comment.
The 31-year-old dual premiership midfielder played in the Tigers win over Fremantle in Perth on Saturday night.
He made his debut in the 2019 grand final becoming a premiership player and Richmond life member after just one game.
