C'mon...as if would Half-Step would be dumb enough to risk bringing back underdone Fat Boy Conca for a crucial match v North .......oh....wait......

Agree with the comments that Lambert had a poor game against the Bombers but I think Hardwick will stick with the same team against the Roos

The Barometer - Round 11

Herald-Sun

RICHMOND

ON THE BLOCK: Daniel Rioli was limping in the third term but played out the game. Otherwise the Tigers emerged with a clean bill of health. Rioli was the quietest player stats-wise (six disposals) but had a lovely tap-on to Jack Riewoldt for a goal. Hard to see Damien Hardwick making any changes after a third straight win.

ON THE CUSP: The Tigers will monitor Troy Chaplin, who missed Saturday night’s Dreamtime at the G with a hip injury. If he’s right he definitely comes back in. The only VFL game at the weekend was a Richmond v Essendon dreamtime game at Punt Rd, which the Bombers won by 23 points. Reece Conca was named in the best in his second game back from injury; he was rushed back against the Kangaroos in last year’s finals but there is no sub vest this time.

AL PATON’S FORECAST: Tigers on the march? Maybe. They did what they had to do against Essendon without looking super impressive but players who were missing or way out of form early in the year are firing now — Deledio, Grimes, Miles are at the top of the list. Next up is nemesis North Melbourne; the Roos have won five of their past six clashes including that final. Trent Cotchin will have a point to prove and is hot form, following his 39 disposals against Freo with 29 and two goals against the Bombers. And there is no Ben Jacobs this time.

RICHMOND

After two VFL matches in the past three weeks, half-back Reece Conca looks ready to play his first senior game for the season after recovering from a serious hamstring injury. The 23-year-old racked up 26 possessions, seven clearances and eight tackles in the VFL at the weekend and could be called on to play the backline role he trained for during the pre-season, bolstering the Tigers' run and ball-use off half-back.

Troy Chaplin could also be injected into the back six after one match sidelined with a hip injury. The Tigers would be keen to bring him in to combat North Melbourne's three-pronged tall forward line.

Youngster Connor Menadue missed his first match for the season last week and might be better for the rest and brought back in.

Half-back Jason Castagna is performing consistently at the lower level and should get another chance with the Tigers soon.
