Coniglio told AFL.com.au that taking on the Tigers will sharpen the focus of the home side and get them back on track.

Brownlow medallists Dustin Martin and Trent Cotchin will bring the star power to Sydney, but Coniglio believes the likes of Kane Lambert, Shaun Grigg, Shane Edwards and Brandon Ellis add important elements that makes the ladder leaders' midfield so formidable.

"I think they complement each other really well, they're such a well-balanced unit," Coniglio said.

"One of their real strengths is the different looks they can get in there, whether it's 'Dusty' going forward or their half forwards coming up, or Grigg playing in the ruck.

"They've got a lot of weapons in there that they can turn too, but in the end, it comes down to the mentality of our players.

"We beat them here last year and they went on the win the premiership.

The correct decision would have been to call a review at the time rather than go to the centre after giving it the all clear, disrupting our stuctures and then having someone calling it back to the goal square.

It wouldn't have been an issue to worry about if we had kicked straight at goal at the start of the last quarter. We simply choked and made fundamental errors as we as yet didn't know how to win. Thankfully, after Dimma had repeatedly said we'll learn from those losses 3 weeks in a row lol, we eventually did learn how to win when it mattered most against the Giants in September :thumbsup.

Shiel ready to return the favour over Richmond headache.

"Unfortunately I copped one on the chin and it ended my game. It's not an issue, I don't really think about it any more, I won't say I'm happy that Richmond and Cotch went on to win the flag but it is what it is and I've moved on."

"When you get blokes like Cotchin, and you get guys like Jeremy Cameron, Toby Greene for us, they're guys that have made themselves really special players because they play on the edge and they seem to find themselves in those high impact collision situations that are close to the line," Shiel said.

"That's a big part of our game and why people like to go watch it, for those sort of players.

"They're one game clear of a pretty tight competition so I think that's pretty impressive.

"They're a team that I enjoy to watch, what they're doing is working really well for them. I'm not going to sit here and pump them up too much because I'm hoping to knock them off this weekend."

Far out, what is Shiel supposed to say?

He does play for an opposition club, and if he wants to use that hurt to motivate himself, good on him. I would expect our players to do the same.

I think his comments are quite composed.
