Out: Miller, Aarts, Gibcus
In: Soldo, M Rioli, either Dusty or Lynch.

We haven't got the option to be cautious on Martin and/or Lynch anymore. We have to win 4 out of 5, so either both of them play, or the one that is fittest.

Balta goes back if one of Martin or Lynch play.

While I understand your point.

Play them and they're not right and either one's hammy goes ping again and they are gone for the season including finals if we make it

Out
Gibcus if he's hurt
Aarts if he's alive

In:
Lynch if fit (Balta back)
Dusty if fit (Shedda sub)

If Dusty & Lynch aren't fit then I guess we need to play someone like RCD for a few games just to be sure we wanna delist him (I'm 90% convinced).

Yeah I know, but it's a risk we are forced into taking. Jack just can't be No 1 banana anymore, and we need either Lynch or Martin down there (both would be great!) to straighten us up and add genuine class to a misfiring forward line. It's now or never.

Id like to find a way to debut Sam Banks this week. Miller stays in for his own development.

Richmond will be without Tom Lynch and Dustin Martin for Friday night's clash with Fremantle at Marvel Stadium.

Meanwhile, Ivan Soldo (thumb), Sydney Stack (fractured cheekbone) and Jack Ross (knee) are all expected to be available for selection, while Josh Gibcus is still a chance to play after being subbed out of Saturday's match with a shoulder injury.

Castagna in Aarts out.  That could seriously happen

Honestly I don't care who plays but the club and players need to respond to the last two weeks.

Yep and so does Dimma and the match committee with team selections and playing players in their best positions (i.e. Balta and Baker are not permanent forwards).

This I agree with!
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Isn't just remarkable that Dimma's love children Castagna and Aarts have almost brought him down. Love is so blind.... The rest of us Richmond people are living in utter disbelief. You know what also disturbs me is that Brendan had not stepped in at some stage.

Playing favourites was always going to catch up with Damien. The dynasty is over.

Out: Edwards, Aarts, Teague, Gibcus, Burge.

In: Stack ffs, Grigg, Lambert (coach) , Caracella, Inness, Martin, Ross to see if he can prove many wrong or dump him.

No one deserves free games to 300 with finals on the line, if they put out that rubbish. If we lose and finals are out fine otherwise best player is the sub.
