Astbury went off with an ankle but came back on.

Fire away with your changes after that 'effort'?  :help

Agree but for a start Stengle needs a run, i think Higgins can go after tonight.
Would like to see bolton get a run but unsute who to put in.
I think Dusty out changed our team balance, Caddy was shut down, they were all over Cotch.
Razor Ray out.

INS: Rioli, Townsend, Graham, Garthwaite

OUTS: Moore, Higgins, Menadue, BEllis

Wouldnt risk Dusty but of they want to risk Dusty he comes in for Grigg

Lucky in the extreme: Grigg, Butler, MacIntosh

Out Higgins, Menadue, Macintosh, BEllis, Butler

In Townsend, Martin, Rioli, Houli, Prestia

If some of the ins aren’t fit then throw a coin up to keep whatever spuds in

Butler and McIntosh must be dropped as they have been seriously poor this year. Townsend for McIntosh, Rioli for Butler, Dusty for Broad, Stengle for Higgins. Grigg lucky.

Graham should never have been dropped ahead of Butler and his soft efforts, if Mrakov has a good game on Sunday then he must come in for Menadue. As much as I like Miles, there's reasons why he's been stuck in the twos. Higgins is miles off, Dimma caught up on his first two games, that putrid screw kick back into the corridor, please! Caddy exposed for pace tonight, forced to play man on man, got lead to the ball and was slow and ineffective both defensively and offensively, hopefully just put it down to an off night. Castagna misses too many easy shots for a guy who doesn't get a lot of chances.

Anyway not the end of the world but it did show some worrying cracks that need to be fixed and quickly

Dusty will be back next week according to Dimma.

-------------------------------------

RICHMOND remains confident Dustin Martin will return for the Tigers' blockbuster round 13 clash against Geelong.

Martin was sidelined with a calf problem, but coach Damien Hardwick says it's not a serious injury.

"We're anticipating he'll play," Hardwick said.

"If the game (against Port) was Sunday he probably plays but we were just a couple of days short.

"It's one of those ones you can push the envelope and he's probably going to miss possibly two if it goes pear-shaped.

"We'd rather just take the week and get him back and play him in the Geelong game."

With most of the sentiments here.
Higgins back to,the 2s and I'd give Stengel a crack, Mrakov for Menadue.
Butler has been poor this year then pulls one out in the nick of time to save his bacon.
Townsend Rioli graham back in for mcintosh
Bit more toughness and pressure back in the side.
We miss Prestia
Moore needs to learn and probably will be a lot better against the cats with a few changes to the team
It's round 12, wasn't good but better now than later
