Changes for next week against the Cats?
« on: April 30, 2021, 10:48:55 PM »
Cotch out with a hammy  :(.

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

Nick Vlastuin and Dustin Martin both likely to walk into Richmond's 22 for next week's Grand Final rematch. Martin (concussion) is due back from NZ after the weekend and Vlastuin (knee) powered through a big running session today. Dion Prestia's calf still tight.

Listening to Dimma's press conference it's obvious he values Rioli, Costania and Aarts as forwards. I don't see it but you can't argue with the results.

Mansell allows Baker to play wing/forward. Must stay in the team.

How good does Baker look forward of centre and its a part of the ground where you need not worry about his lack of size.thats not a put down either.

We just had a great win but as usual we had blokes who hardly had a sniff. not going to enter into a slanging match but a few continue to make little contribution.

Out:
Cotch
Mansell
Castagna/Aarts

In:
Dusty
Vlas
Naish

Vlas to take Mansells position down back. Mansell unlucky but with vlastuin coming in a defensive spot needs to be freed up. Baker to remain forward taking one of the 3 smalls spots and naish to come in on the wing opposite Kmac.

Crazy talk. Blanketed JJ and Pickett the last two weeks. No way he is dropped.

I’m not dropping him on form but if nick is back then you’ve got grimes, astbury, broad, balta, Vlas, short and Houli. There’s your back 7. You dropping any of them ahead of mansell? If not dropping who are you repositioning?
