Nice little rest for nank, would have kept Towner in - think he’ll be important come finals time. Rough for Lloyd to be dropped after a decent game last week but can’t argue with the ins  :thumbsup

Reckon we could've afforded to give Prestia, Houli, Graham & Broad another week off..  Only Gold Coast FFS.

Soldo's a dud  :shh

Presti needs games into him, as does Graham
"The money might have been better. But, at the end of the day, Richmond showed faith in me. It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

We also need them not injuring themselves again just a month out from finals because they came back too early to play a shytetruck side our VFL side could probably beat easily. :shh

Need to be cautious with Nank. Hope Soldo plays okay. Agree with putting in a strong team against Suns. Need to build momentum.

It is only the Suns but the record of teams winning after 5 changes isn’t that good...

5 Changes and win by 100 points and we scare the pants of the opposition.

Anyone else thing Lloyd was a bit stiff. Thought he was just about in our top 10 last week.

I'm not concerned that we have 5 changes. The suns have 6 fwiw
We will do enough to win this

It’s does seem a bit stupid to play Houli after half a VFL game, Graham who has been out for 4 or 5 with a shoulder and Prestia after the year he has had with his body, especially against the Suns.
Play them all for a half in the VFL and then another full week on the track and look to the Bombers
game.

We also drop Townsend and don’t replace him with a midsized forward after not being able to take a mark in our forwardline last week.
