Richmond held its first ever joint training session with its AFL and AFLW sides on Tuesday night.
"It's a great thing for footy to be able to combine the two teams together for a session. We pride ourselves on being a united club, and this is another way we can show that and build the connection a little bit more between the AFL and AFLW programs," Grimes said.
AFLW defender Akec Makur Chuot said her teammates were eager to take on the boys.
"We've got a really competitive bunch, so I'll put my money on it … so the boys better bring it," Makur Chuot said with a laugh.
"We are not going to be backing down. We're going to be enjoying ourselves, but this is a training session just like every other session."
Meanwhile, Jack Higgins continues to make strides in his return from multiple bouts of brain surgery.
The energetic youngster took part in Richmond's first joint training session between the AFL and AFLW squads at Punt Road on Tuesday night.
