Round 1 - Blues v Tigers (21 March) Pre-Game

[DJC]

I doubt Richmond supporters are worried about whether Cripps, Krooz, Docherty etc. play or not. They have the runs on the board, and have shown over the last 5 or 6 seasons that they can handle whatever we throw at them. And that's where I want us to be - whether it's the wooden spooners or the premiers, I want us to be able to handle whatever other teams dish up.

We seem to be building a decent list, but we are still raw, still a little "foreign legion" with the high list turnover etc., so it will take more time unfortunately. Plus I'm becoming a little worried about Bolton.

So am I!  I think he could well be poached by GWS or Gold Coast, with the AFL’s connivance, if they fail to progress.  Hopefully, he’ll stay a Bluebagger ????
