March 23, 2016RICHMONDIs this the year Dustin Martin becomes an All Australian? The Tigers are looking for ways to become a team that wins finals and Martin shapes as the key. Nominated in the 40-man squad the past two years, if he takes the next step so do the Tigers.
Have elimination finals defeats scarred the players mentally? If the Tigers make the finals we'll get a definitive answer. If they don't, there are bigger issues at Tigerland. The club has been keen not to reflect on 2015 and seems to be doing everything it can to wipe three consecutive elimination final defeats from memory.
Is Damien Hardwick the right man to take Richmond to a premiership? This remains a crucial year for the coach, who has time on his side after a contract extension but still needs to win a final this year to prove his team is on track. His credentials will be hurt without September success in 2016.
