Tiger twist: Trademark scrapped in bid to rejoin flag race

Richmond is prepared to go tall for the first time in its premiership dynasty to rejoin the flag contenders this season.

Nick Vlastuin thinks Grimes, Tarrant, Gibcus, Lynch, Riewoldt, Balta, Soldo and Nank will all play!

Vlastuin also said the Tigers have clocked up “four or five times” more miles than what they did last summer.

And a Tiger draftee [Gibcus] is set to be unleashed.

Didnt we go last year with

B: Grimes - Astbury Balta - Broad poo theres 4 talls all 192cm or more in the back half.
If its Grimes Tarrant Broad and one of Gibcus or Miller nothing has changed


Didnt we go Jack Tom and one of Chol CCJ at every opportunity didnt we play Nank as well.
Well its Jack Tom and instead of Chol or ccj its Balta.

The only real addition to the structure will be two ruckmen with Soldo coming in with Nankervis and i dont  think we will play two ruckmen.

This myth  that we play small is just that a myth.

Yeah but Chol and CCJ are too tall to play key forward. Balta is the key difference there.

Haha c'mon couldn't help myself.

For me the addition of Gibcus or Miller should hopefully free up Grimes to intercept more. Tarrant is an upgrade on astbury. Broad will play medium or small.

Chol and CCJ were rucks so if Balta can play genuine forward and the rucks just alternate/rest on the bench then they should be very fresh all game, no excuse there.
