I think he's a complete spud. The type of spud to kick 5 on the G against an interstate contender to win in an upset

I come in peace - please consider the opponents’ feelings this week and maybe even rest combative types like Nank and Lynch in case they upset those nice wholesome Swans players. Good luck on Sunday

It's Time!
Usually play average all year and then play their little leggies against us.
Let's hope it's the reverse.

time to return the traditional Richmond yellow
never heard of them
VFL report reads like only really McAuliffe in the frame for a call up. Possibly Ralphsmith. Sonsie and Cumberland unlikely.
I feel like this game is going to hurt, Swans are several classes above us.
In: McAuliffe, MRJ, Broad, Young
Out: Dow, Trezise, Banks, McIntosh

AFL listed player review from the VFL.
Kane McAuliffe (31 disposals, 14 contested possessions, seven inside-50s, six clearances, one goal)
"Had an outstanding game as an inside midfielder and drove the ball inside 50 on a number of occasions. He used the ball well on the day and hit the scoreboard."
Tyler Sonsie (30 disposals, seven marks, six inside-50s, one goal)
"Found a lot of the ball. He probably didn't have his best day from a ball use point of view, but he will be better for the run. It's great to see him back into footy and finding the ball with ease straight away
Hugo Ralphsmith (25 disposals, nine marks, four rebound-50s)
"He's in fantastic form, he's strung a great month together. He's using the ball really well and his run and carry off half-back is really eye catching. His defensive work has improved immensely also."
Sam Naismith (24 disposals, nine clearances, 31 hit-outs, one goal)
"He was fantastic in the ruck, he kicked one of the better goals that you'll see from a ruckman. He had a game-high nine clearances and was a standout on the day."
Kaleb Smith (19 disposals, five marks, three clearances)
"Had his best game for the club. It's great to see him growing in confidence each and every week. He's very diligent at the club working at his game, and he's reaping the rewards from that."
Noah Cumberland (11 disposals, four inside-50s, two marks, two goals)
"Noah has played a couple of very different games over the last couple of weeks. But, the aspect of his game that has really stood out has been his defensive pressure and that's something that we really value and are definitely looking to see him continue to build. It was good to see him getting a little bit of reward on the scoreboard on the weekend, he's trending in a really positive direction.
Jacob Koschitzke (nine disposals, three marks, one goal)
"Seemed to be outnumbered all day, but never gave up. I thought his leadership was important for our young group, and he kicked an important goal for us late in the game to seal the deal."
Steely Green (four disposals, two marks)
"Steely had a much bigger impact on the game than the stat sheet suggests. His forward pressure was immense. He could have easily finished with three or four goals. If he continues to stick to his role, I'm sure that the reward for him is just around the corner."
Samson Ryan (three disposals, 10 hit-outs, one goal)
"Played very limited game time, both in the ruck and up forward. He's another that probably could have kicked three or four himself, even despite the limited game time, but I'm sure he'll get more opportunities in the coming weeks."

From that write up you’d think Mcauliffe Naismith Hugo and Cumbo are in the mix for a call up
You mean ‘injure’ by getting them on the gear?

I'm not a huge Hugo fan, but I will admit I have noticed his contest work has definitely improved. Still don't trust his disposal, but I don't trust Kmac's either, so may as well give him one last crack.
Dropping Grimes would be a big statement but agree it needs to be done
I would also put Dusty and Bolton alongside Tarranto as primary mids. Parking them forward is a luxury we don’t have at the moment. Let some of the younger newcomers crumb or give Cumbo a shot

Hugo surprisingly played very well last week - looked like he was more calculated when taking the game on - worth a try
If he ajnt up to it - we need to say goodbye

Agree, Dusty, Bolton and TT seems a very nice balance.

If you are rewarding VFL form and improvement in deficient areas Hugo and Noah C have put their hands up
Hugo Ralphsmith (25 disposals, nine marks, four rebound-50s)
"He's in fantastic form, he's strung a great month together. He's using the ball really well and his run and carry off half-back is really eye catching. His defensive work has improved immensely also."
Noah Cumberland (11 disposals, four inside-50s, two marks, two goals)

... it's hard to argue that Banks Dow Lefau and McIntosh did enough to hold their spots (and Tresize injured) ...
so even with Broad and Young back these two would benefit from being rewarded for their defensive improvements. Most importantly with experience at the AFL level it is more likely they will make an impact
