Changes verses the Swannies - Easter Round

Strange that McAuliffe & Ralphsmith not in the 25 then come straight into the starting 18 instead of 2 from the extended bench coming in. Young/Miller more a direct swap for Grimes than Ralphsmith. Head scratching selections continue in 2024.

I'm pretty sure the computer has just slotted Kane in where dusty was and Hugo in where Grimes was

How does Cumberland not get a game? With Dusty out and us needing Shai in the middle full time we don't have any natural small / medium goal kickers. Also we are slow in the forward half. He was great last week in the reserves and by all accounts had a good preseason. End the farce.

if I was Cumbo I’d tell my management to shop me around
If you can’t get a game with so many stars missing it’s time to look elsewhere

It's a joke.
Especially that Dow Banks and Lynch get games
 
Richmond will confirm its team of 23 and three emergencies tonight at 5pm.

Richmond Squad of 26 to face Sydney Swans (UPDATED)

In: Maurice Rioli, Sam Naishmith, Nathan Broad, Tyler Sonsie, Tylar Young, Hugo Ralpshmith, Kane McAuliffe

FMD now Hugo is in...............................:mhihi, Tigers might be getting the mother of all mullerings if the Swans are at all fair fdinkum.

I came around to the idea of Kane debuting back home next week, and realised what a good idea it was for his family etc, now they throw him in too.

Yze getting a very good early look at the list now and a few might be under some scrutiny against one of the best midfield outfits going around at the moment.

Banks and Lefau should be OUT. Banks has had two bad games. Wouldve preferred Clarke or Ralphsmith over Banks, Cumberland over Lefau and Kane McAuliffe over Dow

In: Maurice Rioli, Nathan Broad, Tyler Sonsie, Tylar Young
Out: Dylan Grimes (wrist), Dustin Martin (calf), Judson Clarke (omitted), James Trezise (ankle)

Dow and Banks stay in. We are 2 players down to begin with. These 2 don't offer a contest or any run and pressure.
