Friday night’s game against the Hawks is certainly one to forget but let’s look at some of the positives to come out of the game.
Dustin Martin was taken with the third pick overall in the 2009 draft and slotted seamlessly into senior football with 26 disposals most of which were effective. He looks like a ready built AFL footballer both in his body build and in his skills with the football in his hands, I think you will see Martin in every games baring injuries in 2010.
Ben Nason cleared of serious injury today when scans showed he escaped with bone bruising to the right knee after he was carried off on a stretcher early in the match.
The Tigers still have Troy Simmonds, Daniel Jackson, Nathan Foley and veteran Ben Cousins to add to the line-up, it is clearly going to take a lot longer to adjust to Hardwick's new game plan and deal with the additional injuries we could have done without.
Richmond now head to the central Victorian town of Yea to play the loser of the Geelong vs North Melbourne match at Yea Recreation Reserve on Saturday the 27th of February at 4:00pm in the NAB Challenge series.
