Just saw that on Supercoach FB page. Surely if he's been carrying it for a few weeks he will just keep playing? Especially considering we've already lost a few. 8 day break as well.

Completely opposite feelings to last week's selections. Well done Dimma.

[Willy]

Lennon, Mcdo, Maric are playing

Morris dropped

[Lozza]

Would prefer Morris to Newman to be honest.

[Yeahright]

Maybe if played in his better positon as a backman but honestly reckon he offers less than Newman (if you can provide less than nothing?)

Pretty good selections for once . Would've preferred Bean or Astbury over Maric

WHISPERS

COULD Richmond be tempted to give Dustin Martin a rest?

The explosive Tiger has been off the boil in recent weeks, managing just 21 disposals at 57 per cent efficiency last week against Carlton. The sluggish outing included seven clangers and just the one tackle.

Richmond coach Damien Hardwick last week conceded he had four or five “very sore boys” when quizzed about the prospect of “managing” players to freshen them up for a finals tilt.

Martin was singled out as one of the Tigers to go into the match with little or no training under his belt.

Dusty posted an old photo on Instagram this week with his hand bandaged — is he telling us something?

Sore hand? 
Doesn't excuse kicking straight to the opposition when your teammate is clear. 

Sore boys?
Didn't they rest up during the bye?

[Loui Tufga]

Lloyd replaced on the emergency list by Thomas
Late in for Martin?

[WA Tiger]

It doesn't look like Morris was that good last week then does it.

Must stay out now and we must leave the kids in, trade Morris at the end of the year with Conca!!
