Changes next week for the Port game?

[RedanTiger]

Astbury for a cardboard cut out of Richo. Or Elton

Astbury out for Griffith at CHF

[JVT]

You think they'll drop Astbury? Not that he shouldn't be, just not sure the coaches will after he got himself back into the side. They may opt to let him play again and get some confidence/experience prior to pre season.

This is correct...Coach is just trying to big note himself before he apply's for the port Job, he's just trying to talk down his currency to try and lure him across when he gets the job

I thought Coach already had the Port job?  What the stuff is going on here?

Footy Barometer - Round 23

    From: Herald Sun
    August 27, 2012

RICHMOND

ON THE BLOCK: Another nice win for the Tigers on Friday night. A 45-point thumping of the Dons in a result which probably flattered the losers. Expect White to miss with a hammy, but expect little change other than that.

ON THE CUSP: Brandon Ellis had a much-deserved rest and could slot back in for Sunday’s match against the Power. Coburg’s season is over but Tom Derickx and Addam Maric are also in the frame to play the last game. Ben Griffiths should be over his concussion if required, too.

SAM LANDSBERGER’S FORECAST: It’s all about Jack this week. He’s one behind Pavlich in the Coleman race and will know exactly what he needs to do come Sunday to snare his second award. Can he mow down the Freo superstar? If the Tigers are 10 goals up in the final term don’t be surprised if the match becomes a “get it to Jack” game. From a team perspective, another win to end the year would hand Richmond a respectable 11-11 record, healthy percentage and likely finish of 10th – equating to pick No. 11 in the draft.

RICHMOND - In the Mix
Paul Daffey

The most obvious choice to replace Matt White (hamstring) is Brandon Ellis, who was dropped before the Essendon match last weekend. It is a pity, really, as Ellis was in line to join the elite club of players to have played every game in their first year. Otherwise, who knows what might happen for the last match of the season. Tall swingman Todd Elton might get a call-up or Angus Graham or Andrew Browne could replace Ivan Maric, who might want to sit out after playing the latter half of the season with a groin injury.
