Looks like one forced change with Prestia injured.
Cotch in if he's right.
Fire away with your changes ...
-
Give Prestia a rest. Grigg probably miss another.
Cotchin in.
-
Prestia will go out for cotch.
Macintosh got more of it today and had some good efforts but still shanked it more often than not. Would like to see Menadue come in for him.

Love Kamdyn but if there was any wood on the G yesterday he would have chopped it

The Barometer - Round 8
Herald-Sun
7 May 2018
ON THE BLOCK: Hard to see too many changes this week after Richmond belted Fremantle. Sam Lloyd was last in after being a late inclusion for Trent Cotchin. Dan Butler had a quiet day with just 11 disposals, two tackles and no scoreboard impact.
ON THE CUSP: Cotchin will face a fitness test after being a late withdrawal on Sunday. Expect Brandon Ellis to return after being axed last week after gathering 18 disposals and laying six tackles. Anthony Miles continues to bang down the door at VFL level after 32 touches four tackles and a goal against Footscray. Corey Ellis had 20 disposals.
BEN HIGGINS’S FORECAST: The Tiggy Train rolls on. Fremantle put up a fight in the third quarter but as they’ve done all season, Richmond steamrolled them in the final term. Earlier in the season, we would have said North Melbourne would provide little resistance but after a gutsy win over Sydney in Sydney, the Kangaroos can’t be under-estimated.

Anyone think bolton or stengle should come in for butler? Has had some pretty poor performances so far after a great round 1 performance.
-
Butler the least of our worries.....Stengle in for Prestia if Cotchin's still out...... :shh
-
Surely if both cotch and Prestia are out then miles or at the very least Cellis will come in to help out in the midfield.
-
No way Butler gets dropped. Should light it up at Etihad.
-
Yep - would be foolish to willingly reduce the overall leg speed of the side for Etihad.....would bring in Menadue, Bolton & even Moore before slugs like CEllis & Miles.... :shh
-
I would have Cotchin and either Menadue or Stengel come in for Prestia and Higgins. Could be seen as harsh on Higgins as he has been solid but don't think the fast passed Edihad suits him just yet. Just my thoughts.

You don’t think Higgins is quick?

Average speed.

Harsh but I would drop Higgins for Stengle or Bolton.

Stengle's a gun.....once he bulids a tank, look out... :shh

Thanks Brandon. :lol

What giving character references at bail hearings?
-
I reckon Cotchin and Prestia miss this week to have them cherry ripe for the game after.
Soldo in for Prestia

What giving character references at bail hearings?
Was referring to Brando having done some extras over pre-season with some of the young guys. Jack Graham was involved, that boy is wise beyond his years.
Not sure what is wrong with Brandon giving a character reference. :huh

Yeah, I don't see the issue.

He's helping out a great mate who has stood by his side over the years ::)
So what. Ever heard of 2 sides to a story

In the mix: round eight

RICHMOND
Get them in: Trent Cotchin will come back after missing Sunday's win over Fremantle with complications from the collision knee injury he sustained the week before. Anthony Miles continues to play above VFL level while he waits for his opportunity.
Under the pump: Hard to pick unforced omissions after a 77-point win, but Jack Higgins could be due for a rest after three games in 13 days while Sam Lloyd's status as the 23rd man could see him bounced again despite a decent performance as a late inclusion against the Dockers.
Medical room: Cotchin returns but Shaun Grigg (hamstring) will likely miss again. Dion Prestia hasn't been entirely ruled out, but his calf soreness won't be taken lightly and he won't play if there's any doubt.
Verdict: Cotchin in for Prestia. Brandon Ellis played in the VFL but didn't set the world on fire, which complicates whether he deserves a recall. Toby Nankervis will likely have a rest soon and Ivan Soldo is ready if it's this week.

-
I wouldn't drop Lloyd. There's a few ahead of him right now
-
Lloyd's kicking is a real asset but I think he will be the one that makes way for Cotchin.
-
Hearing that Martin and Nankervis unlikely to play, Prestia and Grigg ruled out and Cotch is touch and go.
If Dusty does line up, he will most likely play FF for majority of game.
Our midfield will be very suspect this weekend if mail is correct.
Dusty has been injured for around a month now, the feeling is because of the 3 games in quick succession if Cotch had of got up last weekend Dusty would have had a rest vs Freo. Don't be surprised if he spent majority of this game forward and then have the rest vs the Eagles but I am hearing the club would prefer to rest Martin and Nank for this game and have them ready for the big clash with WCE but with Prestia getting injured, Grigg already ruled out and Cotch 50/50 its made it more complicated to give them a rest.
Assistant coach from Richmond is where it was coming from.
Take a look at Dusty's TOG last week 78% and they have been trying to manage him for a month or so now with TOG and playing majority up forward where possible.

I looked at TOG stat before the Collingwood game and it was low in those 3 weeks leading up with him playing most of the game v Lions in forward line. My mail is that he may have had a mental health night with a few lads after the maggies game but who knows?
-
I am concerned more by the surface at Optus Stadium in Perth. We cant afford for any of our top liners to injure themselves on that surface. Id rest all our top players against the Eagles, its not worth it for 1 game. We have bigger fish to fry in September.
-
I would play Martin forward. He is carrying an injury since the 2nd half of the Adelaide match.
Prestia OUT Cotchin IN
I would rest Nank v West Coast, and Dusty too!
If Cotchin is 100% play him. If not, Miles!
I am concerned about our tall forward stock. Anyone pushing?
-
Nank and Prestia out
-
Cotchin and Soldo in
-
Richmond won’t be taking North Melbourne lightly and will want all hands on deck. Captain Trent Cotchin will be named after one week out, but in bad news for Tigers fans, Dion Prestia will probably be the one to make way as he continues to deal with leg troubles.
