Great. Looks like we'll get Vickery back to face up to Geelong then...

Emerging Richmond tall forward Ben Griffiths is recovering well from the calf injury that sidelined him last weekend and expects to be available for the Round 6 clash with North Melbourne in Hobart on Saturday.

Can't see Vickery being dropped after Dimma's comments earlier in the week. Suspect we will play both Griff and Vickery and both could be used to give Maric a chop out in the ruck.

Vickery will play. Certainty.
If Griff has one bad game, alas curtains for him.
Vickery is four years into the abyss and he still gets a call up. :help

Is your calf your brain?
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

He hasn't won a Brownlow nor a Coleman, must be mentally weak.

I think Phil has a point. I sense that Ben (based on interviews) lacks confidence. He doesn't know how good he could be and for me he doesn't realise how good that booming kick of his can be.

He could be more confident but I don't think he lacks it anymore. More just modest and wants to play his role to win games. Knows he is important to our structure and doesn't have much pressure on him for his spot

Does still have confidence issues kicking for goals. Needs to rectify these soon but i think he's starting to feel pretty good about his work around the ground. Has become critical for us which I find quite worrying as he has only performed like a competent AFL player this year and does have a history of injuries.

Bloke needs a rocket in the ass regarding his short-range kicking for goal.

Missed a total sitter VS Carlton, another VS Footscray, and at least two VS Melbourne.

Unacceptable for a KPF!
