Castanga will need a big week on the track.
He would have to be the poorest skilled player on the AFL!
Don't get me wrong his work rate and ability to get the the right places are elite but when he's got the ball in hand ::)


Have been super critical of this guy. Set shots are terrible and he fumbles a lot.

But he also had 18 touches vs GWS which speaks of a lot of effort, and to be honest he provides a marking option better than Caddy and Martin.

Needs to work on things but he won't get dropped.

I said earlier this year that Butler looked a better player and people laughed at me. Castagna just has a more mature body on him.

Out Ellis the bloke has been horrid.
Out castagna his skills are atrocious and against a side like Adelaide who thrive on turnovers it could kill us.

They aint going to change the structure so well they now dont have the options to change the structure.
In Miles  could do with the extra inside grunt against the crows.
In Bolton straight swap for Castagna.

Nothing will change though unless there is an injury through the week.

Ellis wasn't as good Saturday as he was v Geel but comfortably stays in.
Castagna has some really poor moments but his work throughout the game, particularly early was outstanding. Can't see Shai or Lloyd coming in for him.
Miles was poor yesterday in the GF but is a better player than 4 or 5 players in the team at the moment.

It will be a brave man that would be arguing the changing of that side. Its a well gelled side and they will live and die by their ability to fight for each other. we are not without a chance, if it rains we will win.

No change to the side but there should be a change to the policy regarding Grand Final Tickets the AFL should allocate more tickets to the competing sides.

Tigers hit with 'a couple of sore boys': Hardwick / Maybe forced changes? (afl)

Tigers hit with 'a couple of sore boys': Hardwick

afl.com.au
27 September 2017


SORE bodies could force Richmond to make its first team change for the finals series heading into Saturday afternoon's decider against Adelaide at the MCG.

The Tigers will have a seven-day break after beating Greater Western Sydney by 36 points last week.

Richmond coach Damien Hardwick spoke at an AFL Coaches' Association function as he accepted the award for coach of the year on Tuesday night in Docklands, indicating there were players who might struggle to be declared fit.

While he didn't give any indication as to who they were, David Astbury (right shoulder) and Kane Lambert (foot) went into the rooms at quarter-time of the preliminary final to have their issues looked at.

"Obviously prelim finals are pretty tough encounters, so we've got a couple of sore boys that we'll just need to nurse through this week and see how they pull up," Hardwick said.

"I probably think that the 22 that played last week have earned the right at this stage, but we'll just have to wait and see."

Sam Lloyd won the Norm Goss Medal for best afield in the VFL Grand Final loss to Port Melbourne last Sunday, while tough onballer Anthony Miles and runner Oleg Markov are others who could come into the side if needed.
