Will be missing Darcy Gardner & Ryan Lester from defence which will weaken them a little. 
Would be a mighty effort to get close up there.

Nank will be getting a mid season bye rest in a few weeks. Why raise the white flag? The players will have the belief that they can cause the upset.

Need to make Andrews accountable help had a field day last time I know Lynch is back , but I would bring the extra tall stretch them and helps Nank to. Pickett in the ruck this week is not a good idea.

Dont know if it affects them that much. They play Marcus Adams every week starting on the bench usually.

Rckon they will  Just start Adams along with Andrews and Birchall or Bring in Jack Payne and play Adams from the bench as per usual. Payne played the first three games before injury dont know if he is  back playing or not.

I think their back half will go something like this its pretty settled in many ways, all bar Adams have played 9 games with Adams playing 7.

Richmond coach Damien Hardwick knows his team has fond memories of the Gabba despite a fiery qualifying final loss to the Lions last year

Russell Gould
news.com.au
19 May 2021


Richmond coach Damien Hardwick believes the “solid gems” he has found among the young talent on his list will keep his team in the hunt to launch another premiership tilt when his injured stars return.

It’s the first time Richmond returns to the Gabba since last year’s grand final win over Geelong, and a place where Hardwick said his team had some “good memories”.

But this time it will be emerging Tigers like Hugo Ralphsmith, Riley Collier-Dawkins and Rhyan Mansell leading the Richmond charge.

“It’s a good opportunity for those young boys that stood up on the weekend to have another opportunity against a really good Brisbane side,” Hardwick said on Wednesday.

“It still keeps us in the hunt, which is really important this time of year. Once we get that more experienced talent back in the side it’s only going to hold us in good stead.

“The positive for us is we’ve found some players.

“Riley Collier-Dawkins was terrific again last week, Hugo Ralphsmith showed he’s going to be a player of the future. Mansell has been terrific ever since he came into the side.

“It’s been a little bit of a painful ride along the way, but the fact of the matter is we’ve found some really solid gems out of it as well.”

The Lions took full advantage of playing on their home ground when the teams last met, winning last year’s qualifying final by 15 points.

Hardwick’s memories of that game, which was a small hiccup on to the way to grand final glory, were of his team’s poor discipline, which he won’t allow this time.

“They beat us by three goals last year, discipline was a big area in that part of the game we let ourselves down in,” he said.

“We gave away four 50m penalties (for) goals and the game was decided by three goals.

“We know when we play our best footy it’s on the edge, but we have to make sure we don’t give away free kicks that give the opposition easy goals.”

Andrews will play on Lynch and Adams will play on Jack.  Good luck any of the other blokes when Dusty goes forward.  Birchall hasn't played on a man in 10 years so it wont be him.

Barrett and Nat Edwards talk about our game.

Not sure how that Predator quote applies to the current Brisbane side right now given we're the underdogs in this match :huh3. Make more sense if we made that quote.

Listen: https://player.whooshkaa.com/episode?id=830597

In this episode ...
0:27 - It's been 20 years since Leigh Matthews famously used the line rom Predator: If it bleeds, we can kill it
2:09 - The "massive hole" in the Lions side
2:53 - The Tigers using injury crisis as an opportunity
3:50 - Is Brisbane's history repeating?

https://www.afl.com.au/news/616831/listen-if-it-bleeds-you-can-kill-it-will-tigers-be-brisbane-s-01-bombers-

And from Barrett's Sliding Doors column:

IF ...
you look at the top eight ...

THEN ...
the team which looks most vulnerable, even after last week's retrieval of a 28-point deficit against GWS, when it comes to premiership credentials is the team sitting eighth. But that team is Richmond. And because it is Richmond it is probably still favourite.

Will Martyn is the sub which is a bit of a surprise.

Like last week it's all about the midfield tonight. Can we match the Lions' mids with all our outs?



Jack to Lynch who marks. But he misses another set shot.

If Astbury is going to play 2nd ruck and not defence then we might as well play CCJ who is a genuine ruck, more agile and can contest and mark the down the line kick. The latter is where we are stalling in the last 5 mins.

Plenty of Tiges need to lift especially in the middle. Need to harden up. Mind you that's hard with these soft umps. Our forwards didn't get much of it because it hardly got passed centre.

Dimma just mentioned the 6-21 free kicks. Obviously not happy and rightly so.

Went in with very low expectations tonight and it's panned out that way.   
The Lions a very good, solid team.  Harder & tougher for longer.
I'll take 5-5 after 10 rounds.  7-5 at the bye hopefully with some players back. 
I do believe selection an issue not playing Caddy & CCJ.

Brisbane     3.5     7.9   11.11-77

Goals: Riewoldt 3, Aarts 2, Lynch, Naish, Ross.


Brave for 2.5 qtrs but continually having to defend thanks to the umps gifting Brisbane frees and forward momentum has now caught up. We've got no run in our legs left. This good get ugly in the last  :help.

Unfortunately Caddy is too slow now days.

Definitely missing another tall or at least a tall that can provide a marking target for our defenders to kick to and provide a bridge between our backs and forwards. We've been killed on the down the line kick tonight. We've also been killed in the clearances especially when Nank isn't rucking.

My team selection had Coleman-Jones in for Rioli. Caddy in as a big bodied mid

I think I was right - Nank needed help another tall up forward stretches their defence.

We were bullied inside and caddy would’ve been handy for team balance and added spice on the field.
We were smashed in clearance with too many youngsters.

Rioli must be dropped this week as he should have for this game. Atrocious. Castagna not much better.

We really lack run out of the back half this year. Probably as a result of our midfield issues and not wanting to run off their man too much. Our spread and work rate has been poor when we do get the ball moving our way. Again, perhaps worrying about being beaten when the ball comes back the other way?

AFL report card: Round 10

24 May 2021


RICHMOND

For all of the billing of a Friday night blockbuster, it was always going to be tough for this version of Richmond to head up to the Gabba and beat this version of Brisbane. They acquitted themselves relatively well, keeping within around a goal at halftime, before fading in the second half. They’re not in the top eight right now but it’s fine; they’ll be back.

In the votes

With many big names absent, several lesser-known Tigers stood up, with Jake Aarts (17 disposals, two goals) and Kamdyn McIntosh (19 disposals, 533 metres gained) both having their best games for the club according to the AFL Player Ratings. Noah Balta (17 disposals, seven marks, 13 intercepts) was a rock in defence while Tom Lynch and Jack Riewoldt each kicked three goals.

Room for improvement

The loss had nothing to do with the free kick count; the Tigers were simply beaten up in the contest. They had just 24 clearances to the Lions’ 51, including 13 to the Lions’ 35 from stoppages, along with big losses in the inside 50 and contested possessions counts. Dustin Martin had an atypically quiet night, spending plenty of time forward but failing to hit the scoreboard.

Grade

So we lost the free kick count heavily
we lost the inside 50 count heavily
lost the clearance count heavily
lost the stoppage count heavily

and Martin was somewhat contained

Yet we lost by less than 5 goals. like our chances next time against Brisbane, even if we just improve the above counts to minor losses

One positive and negative from Round 10

RICHMOND

Positive: First half

Richmond started brightly at the Gabba, kicking the opening three goals before taking a lead into the quarter-time break.

Although they were beaten four goals to two in the second term, the Tigers remained right in the contest.

There were some promising first-half performances, namely from Jack Riewoldt (three goals) and Jayden Short (15 disposals), but it was not a consistent effort overall.

The lack of senior bodies around the ball quickly showed as the Lions took control in the third quarter.

There was enough to like early from the Tigers but they were unable to sustain it over four quarters.

Negative: Not coping with attention

While some of the attention may have been unwarranted, it looked as though the Tigers didn’t really enjoy how the Lions were up in their face… again.

It happened in last year’s Qualifying Final and a similar tact was taken on Friday night.

The likes of Rhys Mathieson, Mitch Robinson and Harris Andrews were overly demonstrative in the way they went about unsettling the Richmond players, and it worked.

The Tigers were undermanned when taking on a genuine contender on the road, and while they performed well at stages, they ultimately come up short.

Some of that has to do with the fact they were overawed, particularly around the ball with the Lions smashing them 51-24 in clearances.

Easy to act pseudo-tough in round 10 when your playing on kids and inexperienced players in our midfield. Not to mention Rhys Mathieson's high shot on Short which wasn't sighted yet Pickett was suspended for the exact same thing ::). Let's see how their self-proclaimed "barometer" who has never played in final in his 6 years :wallywink goes up against us at full strength with Cotch, Prestia, Edwards, Lambert and Bolton back in our midfield in a final when it matters.
