RICHMOND

ON THE BLOCK:
The Tigers have maintained a settled line-up for most of the second half of the season and that is set to continue. If there is a change, usual suspects Sam Lloyd and Ben Lennon — who copped the green and red vests on Friday night — are the most likely to miss out.

ON THE CUSP:

If Reece Conca proves his fitness it will give selectors a dilemma. He’s part of the best 22 but has played only two games this season so it would be a big call to bring him back for a final. The likes of Matt Thomas, Liam McBean, Matt Dea and Chris Knights are training in the hope of a promotion, but it’s only likely to happen in the event of injury. The one who could get the call from Damien Hardwick is Steve Morris, who would die on the MCG to help Richmond get to the second week.

AL PATON’S FORECAST:
It’s just the third time since 2000 a team has won 15 games and missed the top four (one of the others was the Tigers in 2013 — is fifth-mond the new ninth-mond?). But the gap between fifth and eighth is wafer thin. Can’t read anything into Friday night’s win, although it at least snapped a five-game losing streak against the Roos. But the Tigers can’t get caught up in psychological battles. The focus will be on sticking to the plan that won 15 games this year. Ivan Maric needs to play the game of his life against Todd Goldstein and the midfielders have to avoid bombing the ball on Jack Riewoldt’s head to provide easy pickings for Robbie Tarrant and Lachie Hansen.

In the mix: finals week one

RICHMOND

It's unlikely the Tigers will make huge changes to their team this week unless forced to, but there are no players under major injury clouds. Reece Conca remains a chance, but coaching staff will have to take into account he's played just two games since round 17, and those were his only AFL hit-outs for the season, because of a hamstring injury. Tall option Ben Griffiths is in a similar boat. The forward had surgery to repair a finger tendon in late July and hasn't played since round 17. He's more likely to be considered later in the finals and will train this week, but appears unlikely with Ty Vickery putting in some good performances recently. Matt Thomas, fresh from his equal second place in the VFL's best and fairest on Monday night, is there if they need a midfield replacement after filling in for Trent Cotchin in round 22, while Steve Morris remains a possibility, but has been in and out of favour since round 16.
