With Wagga Tigers already wearing the traditional yellow and black colours, the Hume league powerhouse is happy to make any changes required to get the team on the park.

Osborne president Jason Gooden said the finished product will be unveiled in due course.

"It's a bit of a heritage jumper. We haven't changed our colours much, but it will all be revealed in the next couple of weeks," Gooden said.

"We've got the go ahead so they're in the printing process with the design.

"We've got to respect Wagga Tigers. The Riverina league is their league.

"It's all happened pretty quickly, but that's the exciting part about it, to tick the boxes."

Osborne is set to play three of the nine-game home and away season at home with its entry into the competition eliminating the bye.

"We're grateful to get three home games and grateful to get nine games of footy in. Not that we've started yet, but if we can get that, it's a positive," Gooden said.

"We've had to give up some home games, but you've got to give a bit to take a bit.

"In the Riverina league, we saw there was an opportunity with nine teams in the competition and we even heard a couple of clubs might drop off.

"We thought if we could jump in there and help the Riverina league out it be a good thing, but to their credit all the clubs have come up and are in it.

"A 10-team competition makes it pretty healthy."

The addition of Ovens and Murray stars Elliott Powell and Tom Johnson in the past week should leave Osborne well place for a tilt at success, but Gooden hasn't looked too far ahead.

"I haven't thought too much on the footy side of things, I've been busy about the club itself getting it up and going," he added.

"I know the Riverina clubs have picked up few up out of the NEAFL and the O and M clubs.

"Just to get a game under our belts, I'd be pleased about that."

The only concerns from AFL Riverina were around Osborne's ability to field all three grades of football in the competition, but a slight difference in age limits is in their favour.

"We pick up six players so they can fall back into the under-17.5 in the Riverina league," Gooden said.

"Everything is starting to line up a little bit just by staying positive and keeping in the game."
