Apart from Ivan's nose, I think we got through today unscathed.
Fire away with your changes, if any?
-
No changes
-
Grimes in, S Morris omitted.
Possibly try and make room for Conca, possibly the skipper (he only had 13 touches ;D).
-
Morris out. Knights in.
-
newman to early retirement.
hunt can play VFL next week too.
-
Newman for anyone.
Has totally lost his awareness with his speed.
L I A B I L I T Y.

-
No changes
-
Dare I say it - do we rest some stars .
Give Cotchin or Jack a week off.
-
No Changes
Jack played 100% game time yesterday that probably means they wanted to get as much game time into him as possible
Think line up is now settled
-
No changes.
-
If fit I think Grimes is a certainty to come back in..Unfortunately Morro will have to give way
-
Yep Grimes is back next week
-
id give Grimes another week even if h is ready
-
If Grimes okay would bring him in at the expense of Hunt or Morris.
-
Morris out. Knights in.
:banghead serious question WAT. Who would you play on the smalls? Knights? :lol
-
grimes can play small or tall equally well..thats why I think hes crucial for our backline,much more versatile than Morro.
Me I would have morro as a sub.Hes one player you would love to throw into the mix when things aren't going our way
-
Knights in Morris out!! :clapping :clapping

Jack looks like he's been sore since the St Kilda match IMO.
Would rest anybody sore or nursing minor injuries. Rest Maric VS North.

The Barometer - Round 22

RICHMOND
ON THE BLOCK: Ben Lennon might be feeling nervous after starting as the sub and taking off the green vest halfway through the last quarter. He replaced Shane Edwards, who was given a rest after gathering 17 disposals in his comeback from a broken leg. Other “fringe” players Sam Lloyd, Kamdyn McIntosh and Steve Morris were all very good against Collingwood.
ON THE CUSP: Dylan Grimes and Reece Conca will both try to prove their fitness after suffering minor hamstring injuries two weeks ago. The VFL team suffered a big loss to Collingwood but Liam McBean (five goals) will keep the pressure on the top-level forwards to keep performing while Chris Knights (20 disposals, two goals) could be a finals wildcard.
AL PATON’S FORECAST: Richmond was the lowest-scoring team in the top eight until two weeks ago, then it banged home 45 goals against Gold Coast and the Magpies. The spread of goalkickers is particularly pleasing for Damien Hardwick, with Ty Vickery (10) leading the club goalkicking in the past two weeks, followed by Sam Lloyd and Brett Deledio (6) and Jack Riewoldt and Dustin Martin with four each. With a top-eight place all but locked in, the Tigers will want another good win against Essendon and hope the Saints can upset Sydney so they are playing for a top-four spot against the Roos in Round 23.

I wouldn't be resting anyone at the end of the day we should thrash Essendon but anything is possible we take this game for granted and we drop it then we could find ourselves finishing 7th or 8th. If there are no injuries id suggest keep the same team give grimes one more as he would have to play against north as well as conca if they are right cant have them coming of a 3 week break into a hard final not right prep.
Morris will hold his spot I think and will be a show in to tackle Harvey or Thomas in the last round.... :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup
GO U TIGERS

With finals locked in, it is time for the Tigers to look at what their best September team looks like.
Defender Dylan Grimes is certainly a part of that and could return this week from a hamstring injury if he passes a fitness test.
Reece Conca would also be in the club's September plans, but it is likely he'll need a match in the VFL after another hamstring injury.
Liam McBean is in superb form at VFL level, kicking another five goals at the weekend, but he can't fit in at AFL level right now with a smaller forward line working well around tall pair Jack Riewoldt and Ty Vickery.
Half-forward Chris Knights had 20 possessions and two goals in the VFL but will likely be waiting for an opening rather than forcing his way in on form.

Injured players rest.
The rest go to work.
You win a flag by working.......as a group.
-
and stuff conca off.
He throws the team balance out he window.
stuffn moron.

Much as I would like to bring in players such as Dea, Astbury, McBean etc. It is the wrong time of the year. We need to go into the finals with a settled side. If going to make a change believe they will bring in Grimes if fit but at whose expense is the issue.

Dea, Astbury and McBean deserve a chance at the senior level given their performances in the latter half of the season. To say they do not defies logic.
-
Dea can pee off if he's retiring.
But astbury and McBean, most correct you are
-
Going by what Dimma said today, there will be just the one change if Grimesy is right to go.

Would say
Grimes In
Morris Out

i will never understand what people see in Astbury as a footballer....slowest player in AFL who cant hit a target beyond 15 metres

even if Grimes is ready ...surely he gets another week off given his history...its a no brainer
