RICHMOND premiership captain Trent Cotchin is expected to travel to Adelaide on Wednesday ahead of Thursday night's Grand Final rematch despite spending Sunday night in hospital.

The Tigers confirmed to AFL.com.au on Monday that Cotchin had sought medical assistance at Epworth Hospital on Sunday night after coming down with a migraine.

He had trained earlier in the day and had no other medical concerns other than the headache, which he wasn't able to shake.

He attended the Melbourne Grand Prix on Saturday, for which he was ambassador, but wasn't scheduled to attend on Sunday.

Cotchin was discharged from hospital on Monday morning and was subsequently resting at home on the players' day off.

He is expected to train on Tuesday and line up against the Crows on Thursday night.
