Go Danny 

I know it's just how'll line-up on paper but wouldn't we want Chubba at FB and push Joel to CHB so we don't lose his rebounding skills ???. I know Tivs has had a good year apart from last week but back on a HBF  . Keep him away from our backline Terry lol. Good to see Terry try a Bowden at FF if that's where he actually plays.  It could flop with Paddy as opposed to using Joel but you never know it might pay off.

In: Knobel, Kellaway, Pattison, Meyer

Believe it (Kellaway) when he runs out

Surprised by Meyer's selection then again maybe he's going to our FB or CHB

Out: Stafford, Oakley-Nicholls, Hughes, McGuane

No surprises there

[Fwoy3]

Good to see Matty White make it into the emergencies too 

[Bulluss]

Seeing McGuane isnt named an emergency, is it safe to assume that Kellaway will play?

Or have they just decided that McGuane just isnt ready at this stage to play no matter what.

Good to see Meyer in, hopefully he will take his chance and show us something.

Interested to see if Kellaway is at training tomorrow. He wasn't around on Wednesday when i got there for the last half hour.

Surprised by Meyer's selection then again maybe he's going to our FB or CHB

LOL

I think latter maybe the reason Bull.

No disrespect to Luke but he looked out of his depth last week and I don't reckon he is ready for the big stuff yet.

Up until his AFL debut last week he'd only played 2 senior games for Coburg 3 weeks ago he was playing for Coburg's reserves. Couple with that as a defender he has struggled at Coburg. His better games for the Burger have been when he's been moved forward

[LondonTiger]

Only surprise is Meyer, although he is fit, and when he gets it he uses it well.

Thought Knobel and Pattison should have come in.  Kellaway, hope he is fit enough to play.

Going to be an interesting game to listen to.

Four changes for Tigers
6:56:16 PM Thu 18 May, 2006
Exclusive to richmondfc.com.au

Richmond has made four changes to its side to take on Adelaide at Telstra Dome on Saturday afternoon.

Andrew Kellaway, Danny Meyer, Trent Knobel and Adam Pattison all come into the team – Meyer and Knobel for the first time this season.

The Tigers have omitted four - Greg Stafford, Cleve Hughes, Jarrad Oakley-Nicholls and Luke McGuane - following the club's 118-point loss to Sydney.

Knobel and Pattison will start on the bench with Dean Polo and Daniel Jackson while Stafford, Oakley-Nicholls and Matthew White have been named as emergencies.

Richmond football manager Paul Armstrong said the selections changes were based on positional like-for-like players.

"'Knobs' has been good in the Coburg side for the past two or three games since he's come back from that fracture in his leg and 'Staff's' just had a quiet few weeks and he's just going back to find a bit of form with Coburg," Armstrong told richmondfc.com.au.

"Andrew Kellaway, we're pleasantly surprised he's come through, to take Luke McGuane's place. There's nothing wrong with Luke, it's just that Andrew's an experienced player and we missed that a little bit.

"'Patto' is coming back in for Cleve Hughes, who has had three games and a bit of a taste of it and Danny Meyer, who played senior footy last year, has come in to give Jarrad a rest."
