Won't be any changes unless there is a injury during the week

Agree. Whilst I would like Miles to be brought into the side at the expense of ElliB I very much doubt that will happen.

I would say Hunt for Short or Miles a no brainer.

Who's in the mix for round two?

Nathan Schmook
AFL.com.au
March 28, 2017

If there was a weak spot in Richmond's 43-point win over Carlton it was the backline, conceding 14 goals to an inexperienced Blues' attack.

This is also where the Tigers' depth is, with Jayden Short (16 games in 2016) available and in good touch in a VFL practice match on Thursday.

Oleg Markov and Nathan Drummond are also options as versatile defenders, but Short would be the first player called on as a replacement for Taylor Hunt, who would be the defender most under pressure if a change is made.

In attack, Sam Lloyd had an off night and the match committee could consider bringing in Ben Lennon, who was lively and kicked three goals in Thursday's VFL curtain raiser, if it decides an immediate change is needed against Collingwood.

Midfielder Anthony Miles was surprisingly overlooked in round one, but it's hard to see a midfield vacancy for him to take at the moment.

I would like to see Lennon come in.  Maybe for Lloyd.

I'd say Hunt for anyone

Lloyd kicked 35 goals last year, he is not going anywhere after one quiet game

After a win no more than two changes but the back line needs a re-adjustment.
Short in for Hunt at back pocket.
Drummond in for Houli and plays half back.
Vlastuin to go to half back and McIntosh to the wing.
Conca played okay and replaces Ellis on the other wing.

Unlikely to happen but Miles for Ellis to cover the midfield loss of Vlastuin and Lambert for Lloyd, maybe Stengle but it's unlikely.

Stengle's a rookie and would need to be elevated. We still have two spots with Graham & Hamspud on the LTI but we always seem to be reluctant to elevate more than one rookie until late in the year for whatever reason.

Prestia in doubt tomorrow night?

Left the ground gingerly last Thursday night in the latter part of the last qtr and put the jacket on.

Didn't run around today, can ill afford to lose him against Collingwood considering their clearance and contested ball numbers last week

Recruit Dion Prestia shapes as a key player for the Tigers, but he was on light duties at training on Wednesday, completing no running in the 30-minute captain's run.
