Loved it when they referred to our games against Melbourne as the ‘battle of the co-tenants’.

Now there are more co-tenants than the Housing Commission flats!
We are tenants of Melbournes home ground

Alternatively the mcg is in Richmond and is also known as the Richmond Paddock

So the cotenants thing doesn’t work whichever way you look at it

Sometimes opposition clubs forget how good Nick Vlastuin is as an intercept defender. Gold Coast made that mistake on the weekend bombing the ball long which led to Tigger and Balta taking a combined 25 intercepts. Melbourne seems to have fixed their ball movement into their forward, so are unlikely to make that mistake

The key to the match will whether Richmond can apply enough pressure to Melbourne's midfield to pressure forward entries and to create turnovers. The more than likely that Melbourne will win the clearance battle.

Trainor to start to get the job on Kosi Pickett, Mansell in for Green and Sims in for Ryan.
 
Was there a cryptic message on insta yesterday?

The caption was "all smiles" with a pic of Hopper hugging Smillie......

Probably just because we got the win.

I'd struggle to find a spot for Smillie this week. Even the whipping boys played well.
 
Ross and Sonsie play the same role and Ross has been far better than Sonsie this year.

If the suggestion is to replace Ross with Sonsie then just keep Ross in. He wasn’t great but he’s better than Sonsie.

I’d prefer Sonsie dominate the VFL for a few weeks anyway and come in with a proper run of form.

Blight straight back in for Balta.

Mansell and McAuliffe in the frame.

Trainor won't be sub so he'll play down back.

So it might be Trainor for Balta, Blighty for Ryan and Mansell for anyone else??
