JLT 2018: Carlton vs St Kilda at Ikon on Wednesday

If he is loose are you playing another man back to pick up his man or are you allowing Weiterings nominated opponent to also be loose? the latter is a dangerous tactic given Richmonds
entry rate and ability to rebound quickly which doesnt include bombing the ball, rather they hit up their smalls on the run and look to burn you on the break by creating the overlap.

Actually I think Richmond scuff the ball forward. They don't bomb long, but I don't think they are hitting up a lot of targets either. I think they trust themselves on the ground.
I would be playing with a 7 man defense against Richmond and wanting Weitering to just hover. I agree that finding tactics against Richmond will be difficult, but that it to be expected in a team that won their finals by about 7 goals each and won the flag.
