We cannot allow ourselves to be beaten so badly at clearances against gws. need to do something about it if there is any sort of option we need to look at it. Im asking how bad it could have got if Cunnington had played.

Gws unlike NM have hardened ball winning clearance players They will get Hopper back Ward Taranto Kelly Green and Coniglio all have performed better at clearances than any of our players this year lucky for us Tom Green will probably miss another week with a hammy and Coniglio has missed a whole heap.But even without those two they have the players to hurt us in this area.

what is the option? chol? is that one step fwd two steps back? and if so who goes out?

In the Mix: Round 22

RICHMOND

Richmond will be faced with an interesting dilemma, after late call-up Thomson Dow (22 disposals) performed well in Kamdyn McIntosh's absence. After pulling out on game day, McIntosh should be ready to go for the clash with GWS. Hugo Ralphsmith (17 and a goal) also performed well on the other wing, while Maurice Rioli is likely to be given another week. Matt Parker didn't do too much wrong, but was one of the quieter players with 14 touches.

Verdict: No change.

Team Tips:
The Tigers are confident Kamdyn McIntosh will be available to return for Friday night’s mini-final after being a late withdrawal for last weekend’s win over North Melbourne due to a hamstring strain. He was replaced on the day by Thomson Dow. Otherwise this is a relatively steady 22, with Maurice Rioli looking impressive on debut.

Hardwick said defender Nathan Broad was "probably 50-50 to play again this year" after failing to pull up well in his recovery from a syndesmosis injury.

Wingman Kamdyn McIntosh is in contention to return from a hamstring injury, while Hardwick hinted debutant Maurice Rioli Jnr and fellow youngsters Hugo Ralphsmith and Thomson Dow would retain their spots.

No guarantee Kmac comes in by the sound of it.

Hardwick said he “would like to think” youngsters Maurice Rioli, Hugo Ralphsmith and Thomson Dow had done enough to retain their spots, while triple-premiership hero Kamdyn McIntosh (hamstring) was fit but the fact he had not played for a month was an issue.
