Maric suspended should be a loss for them. In previous years Cotchin would have copped a week for his hit as well.

If we only win one more game for the year I hope it is this one

Staggered that he didn't cop something for that. But after the Schulz incident nothing surprises me.

Nope. Essendon* and Hird gets the sack afterwards....

Hope we smash em. I reckon they're overrated anyway.

We need players back to have a chance, if we play all the fringe guys from last week tigers may make shirt work of us.

I fear we may be due for a downer after a solid month of having a red hot crack.

Carrots and Gibbs will be back, that's a start. Menzel/Doch/Walker - not so sure.

I wonder if they will use Nathan Brown for the Shirt work? ;-)

Are you saying that we're a bunch of blouses?

I am confident but would feel better if Cripps was fit (scary that I am relying on a guy with <20 games experience...).
I reckon Richmond are a bit like us from a few years ago - a couple of good wins and they play like millionaires.
If we come with the intent we showed against Port Adelaide (which was more manic than the other matches in the past month) & I think they'll go to water. As long as Casboult marks a few in the goalsquare, we'll be good.

PS. We are ahead of Richmond, Essendon* and North on the premiership clock... they're all past it or will never quite get ther but don't yet realise it yet... (well, maybe Essendon* does now)

If they go like for like it'll come down to Hampson and McBean you'd think, but I personally think they'll opt for a smaller forward line, though they will bring in some height in defence if Everitt plays.

Not sure White's going to have a good defensive match up for this; he may miss, or be swung forward. Assuming every one passes their fitness tests, I'd like to see:

FB: Tuohy Jamison Docherty
HB: Yarran Rowe Buckley
C: Boekhorst Gibbs Simpson
HF: Armfield Henderson Bell
FF: Menzel Casboult Everitt

RR: Kreuzer Cripps Murphy

Int: Dick Holman Curnow
Sub: Walker

Out: Whiley, Wood, Tutt, Graham, White, Johnson
In: Dick, Docherty, Gibbs, Walker, Rowe, Menzel

Isn't Hampson injured as well?
