Touchwood, we got through unscathed.

When was the last time we got through a game without an injury?  It's been a while!

Yeah I'm not sure about Bauer, his kicking is a bit suspect which is never a good thing as a forward.

I'd be dropping Dow for Balta and shuffling the positions a bit.

Balta can play mid or wing.

I’d be getting games into Armstrong, Faull, Sims and Fawcett all ahead of Bauer personally.

Yes to both posts on Baur. I loved him last year but doesn’t seem to be doing much as he’s been given a month so probably time.
"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”

Team Tips:

After a disappointing second-half fadeout against St Kilda in Round 3, the Tigers were scrappy last Saturday in staying with the Lions in the second half despite trailing by almost five goals at half-time. Forward Jacob Bauer started as the tactical sub, replacing Kamdyn McIntosh after the veteran managed eight disposals from 65 per cent game-time. In the VFL, first-round pick Jonty Faull booted 2.2 from nine disposals as he continues to build into his first AFL season, while fellow draftee Tom Sims (17 disposals, six tackles, 10 hitouts and a goal) was busy playing a hybrid role, and Samson Ryan was industrial kicking 1.3 from 23 possessions. No.7 pick Josh Smillie made his VFL debut, having recovered from a hamstring complaint that interrupted his pre-season, collecting 10 disposals and a couple of clearances in managed minutes.

Surprising, not mad about it but thought Sims would’ve been closer given his longer preseason.

Like Sims, Faull hits the packs hard and loves contact. Great trait for a young key fwd

Good to hear, but at who's expense?
