RICHMOND midfielder Lauren Tesoriero will not play this week against St Kilda as she is in isolation due to coronavirus.

Tesoriero is not displaying any symptoms and the measure is purely precautionary, as her housemate recently returned from Japan.

"Club medical staff – in conjunction with the AFL – have taken an ultra-cautious approach given she shares a house with someone who recently returned from overseas," a Richmond club statement said.

"Lauren's housemate returned from Japan on Tuesday night. Despite having no contact with her housemate that evening, Lauren was sent home from the club on Wednesday.

"Neither Lauren or her housemate are displaying any symptoms but in the current environment the club and the AFL felt a period of isolation was the best course of action."

SEN saying AFLW this weekend will still go ahead as per norm as the Feds mass gathering ban doesn't start until Monday.

No loss. Too old, too slow, too fat and she doesn’t get the ball enough. It’s a wonder why the club felt the need to pick her up seeing Collingwood delisted her.

Technically, Lauren Tesoriero drafted herself with our last pick (pick 96). She's a full-time AFLW recruiter at the Club and was playing assistant coach for the VFLW side in 2019. Kate Sheahan backed the decision as she believed Tesoriero brought "leadership, experience and the kind of frame that could help a young Richmond AFLW side when the club entered the competition in 2020". Tesoriero is also playing after returning from an ACL without surgery. So she can't change directions. No surprise she is also slow. Really just a late mature pick used as cannonfodder to try and protect the younger cubs for a year.

And that is supposed to make the decision justified?

And that is supposed to make the decision justified?

Rightly or wrongly that was the reason. Based on form and results this year it doesn't appear justified but perhaps  that perception may change if we have like in the men's team her now younger teammates thanking her for their early development in years to come. Recruiting Cuz was ultimately a fail at the time but Dusty and Cotch have said since they learnt a lot as cubs about what it takes to be a pro footballer from him.

If there's one thing they can work on today it's not conceding an early goal within the first couple of minutes and aim to score the first goal.
