Changes for Next Week Brisbane
- Thread starter Stig
- Start date
I'd be very surprised if Soldo was dropped. That would leave one of MRJ, Sonsie and Ross to play
Richmond squad v Brisbane, Sunday, July 31, 3.20pm AEST, MCG
In: Jack Ross, Tom Lynch, Thomson Dow, Rhyan Mansell
Out: Hugo Ralphsmith (omitted)
Milestones: Shane Edwards 300 games, Ivan Soldo 50 games
*If you're playing Miller and Balta Ruck/Forward then you cant play Soldo but it's his 50th game, so one would think he's in. We seem to top heavy.
With Lynch coming in, I would've put Balta back and Miller out.
So tomorrow when the team is announced which 4 from the interchange bench will make the final cut. I'll give it a stab.
I/C: Balta, Short, Soldo, and either Ross or Rioli Jnr
In: Jack Ross, Tom Lynch, Thomson Dow, Rhyan Mansell
Out: Hugo Ralphsmith (omitted)
Milestones: Shane Edwards 300 games, Ivan Soldo 50 games

I’d drop Nank he appears either injured or cooked Just can’t run or jump
Me too , but has has been named in the starting 18 so he will play..
Hopefully they play Sonsie for his first game at the G. I haven’t been convinced about the two ruck combo all season .. I’m hoping they go with one ruck and Balta for this game. I reckon they will pick Ross for this game and sub either Rioli jr again or Sonsie.
We are going to carry a broken and ineffectual Nankervis through another game.
Selection continues to be an issue this year.

Surely 1 of the talls miss out.
Last week we struggled to run the game out, Freo were well on top for most of that final quarter and we played Grimes, Miller and Tarrant back (along with Broad) and we had Nank, Soldo. Jack and Balta forward. We've added Lynch to that mix. I can't see us going in with 8, so 1 of the above needs to drop out. With Balta training forward you would assume it wouldn't be 1 of the backs, so maybe Soldo or Nank will miss.
The first 50 games are the hardest. He'll surely keep improving from his 7.9 disposals a game to 8.9 disposals within the next 50.
