Which Tiger draftees will play? Hardwick answers your questions
AFL stuff page

AFL Media's Ask the Coach series continued on Tuesday with Richmond boss Damien Hardwick answering your questions on stuff.
Chris Dalmau:
Where do you see Corey Ellis fitting into the side with the likes of Houli, Brandon Ellis, and markov? I really like his foot skills and hope he can hold down a spot across half back.
Dimma:
We really like what Corey brings to the table, I agree with you on his great foot skills. I think he can play wing and half back.
Brendan Fisher:
Will any of the new draftees (Graham, Bolton, Garthwaite) get an opportunity in the JLT series or are they still in development stage?
Dimma:
They're probably still in the development stage, that's not to say they might make an appearance later in the #JLTSeries.
Brendan Fisher:
When will the decision be made to promote a rookie? Castagna and Butler both looked great on Friday, will you wait to see more potential in future games?
Dimma:
I think so, we have one available rookie spot at this stage and are fortunate to have competition for that spot from a number of players.
Aidan Berg:
Will our tackle numbers and pressure around the ground improve from what it has been over the past couple of years?
Dimma:
We would hope so, it is something we've focused on over the off-season.
Scott Buchholz:
How much midfield time are you looking to give caddy vs up forward?
Dimma:
That's a good question. It probably depends on how he and others are going. We'd like to rotate Martin, Cotchin, Caddy and Vlastuin through the forward line.
Tyron Kerr:
When will the leadership group be announced dimma?
Dimma:
When I know you'll be the first to know!
Steven Hampton:
Who would you say is doing the best in the pre-season so far of the new recruits?
Dimma:
It's probably unfair to name one, I have been impressed by them all at different stages.
James Laughlin-glen:
Will toby nankervis take the number 1 ruck role this season?
Dimma:
I thought Toby and Ivan were very good on the weekend. We have some tough decisions to make, can we play two?

Is Steve Hampton just Shaun Hampson in disguise?

Probably better than Hampson

I see Dimma quit answering questions as soon as the topic of Brandon Ellis came up lol.
Nathan Radzi
With the added depth and competition starting to form in our side to get a spot in the midfield, will Brandon Ellis ever address his turnover rate?
Luke Prendergast
When is Brandon Ellis going to be held to account for constantly turning the ball over and putting teammates under pressure?
Elliott Diamond
Dimma went quiet quickly when these questions came out haha
