Preview Changes for Richmond.

[Sunny_]

Wilikinson out through injury.

Its been noted that Bluey is optimistic that Swallow will make his return this week. Straight swap for Wilko? Its a chance.

 

[Iason]

I really hope McKenna isn't rushing Swallow back. How long is Wilkinson out for?

 

[SandyToes]

Agree on Swallow, but no doubt he'd want to play
(BTW is lason as in "Lason" or "Iason as in iason?)

He looks more like a Rex

Heard on ABC radio Dave said he has been running for 3/4 weeks, and could have played a few weeks ago, but they weren't rushing him and were making sure he's fully right to go. Think he'll be okay if he plays this week in Cairns.

iason (pronounced yah-sin, yah-sun, yah-sewn). I led the Argonauts once upon a time.

Well played, sir.

I was finding it hard to believe there was another classical scholar on BigFooty.

Hah, well, its actually my name. My father is Greek and my mother is Peruvian. Father wanted to name me Hercules or Spartacus (I wish I was kidding), and my mother wanted Marcelo or Amerigo. Iason was a compromise.

LOL , spartacus would be cool though , spoke to Luke Russell at the ground on Sat , said he is a big chance for this week , my guess is

IN - Swallow , Russell , Iles
Out - Wilkinson , Weller , Patrick

 

[SandyToes]

Mav just isn't clicking is he
Tryinga bit too hard
I think he'll make it, but has to learn what to do with the ball when he gets it.

Starting to get close to a team that can threaten with those ins and outs

No, No, I'm Spartacus!

I quite like those ins & outs. Patrick looks like he'll click in the seniors if we leave him in there long enough, but he doesn't deserve a place ahead of those other 3.

 

[Greggy]

What kind of conditions should we expect this week?

 

[Buddy33]

hutch?

 

[UP AND RUNNING]

hutch?

Hutchy injured. Bad injury last week in Darwin. Will be out for a while. Can't take a trick poor kid. I really rate this guy.

 

[bballscout]

Hall and iles need to come in, swallow the sub.

Not sure who to come out as I didn't see the game.

 

[supernova_]

I dont see Hall in our best 22 at the moment.

IN: Iles, Swallow
OUT: Weller, Wilkinson

 

[_DBF_]

You guys are a real chance. No Martin, Jackson, Foley, White, Vickery, Grimes, King, Connors.
Guessing we will start something like this, this week.
Out: White (susp.)
In: Webberley

B: Steven Morris, Alex Rance, Chris Newman
HB: Bachar Houli, Ben Griffiths, Jake Batchelor
C: Shaun Grigg, Reece Conca, Brett Deledio
HF: Robin Nahas, Tom Derickx, Addam Maric
F: Luke McGuane, Jack Riewoldt, Shane Edwards
Foll: Ivan Maric, Trent Cotchin, Shane Tuck
Int: Brandon Ellis, Brent O'Hanlon, Matthew Dea
Sub: Jeromey Webberley

I think Tuck will go to Ablett, and Morris to Bennell.

 

[supernova_]

After our performance against Geelong, I'm hoping we go in with a bit of confidence and really push again. We're on the verge of our first win this year, I can taste it!!

My biggest worry is probably Maric, and how Smith and Hickey compete against him.

 

[_DBF_]

They won't.

 

[supernova_]

They won't.

Thats insightful, you can crawl back in your hole now.

I didn't want to give you the run down on how it was he mauled Cox and Naitanui and then Ryder and Bellchambers. I love Hickey and would kill to have a developing ruckman with as much upside as him on our list. But it is ludacris to suggest they will compete.

As for crawling back into my hole, I can play whack-a-mole all night!

And as for being insightful, this was me providing you with my thoughts on the game, but that was seemingly ignored.

 

[CoastBhoy]

Really we close to full strength this week , if Swallow and Iles come in , $7.20 for a under 39.5 GC win looks good .

 

[Sunny_]

Lynch also a chance to return. Would love to see him in the team with Dixon and Day!

With our season ending injuries, this is as strong as we're likely to get.

If you carry all 3, only room for 1 true ruck. IMO we play too many bigs in the 22 already. Afl is a running game in the modern era and that obviously favours players under 190cm. Whilst rucks are important, it is still overrated given well under half of winning taps go to advantage anyway.

In that scenario, I'd like to see Day or Lynch play back line and take the opposition no.2 or 3 forward.

Want to see dicko play deep full forward, he is capable of kicking bags but if not draws a contest for the small forwards.
