It's not your typical pastime for a footballer, but the art of pottery has been a real game changer for Richmond recruit Sam Naismith.

Having battled many challenges on and off the field, the creative outlet has helped revive the ruckman's career.

If his body/knees can finally hold up under the rigours of AFL level as it did last year at VFL level with Port Melbourne, then he may surprise quite a few. He's just had rotten luck with injury his whole career. As you rightly say Damo, he deserves a change of luck.

Naismith looks a handy acquisition, Richmond’s midfield undercard stepped up

Without Martin, Taranto, Prestia and Nankervis, Richmond’s undercard of midfielders fought back valiantly after a torrid beginning.

Max Gawn, Jack Viney and Christian Petracca had done what they pleased early but Thomson Dow, Jack Ross and Jacob Hopper in particular worked their way into proceedings to wrestle back momentum.

Sam Naismith, while unlikely to be a first choice ruckman, could prove to be a handy acquisition for the Tigers.

In the absence of his former Sydney teammate Nankervis, he worked well in tandem with Samson Ryan and provided plenty of ball for the Tigers mids to go after.

Naismith’s clever tap work in the middle helped his side get back into the game as the Tigers kicked 10 straight goals after conceding the first five.

Reckon Nankervis has some serious opposition for his spot. Lucky we got him because Ryan does not look like he has improved at all.

Much better than a back up ruck .

An upgrade on Soldo .

Captain might be nervous.
