Nathan Foley to make his long-awaited return.

Nathan Foley should play his first game of the 2010 season on Sunday night against the Dockers in Perth.

We have not seen Foley since he suffered a severe ankle injury in Round 14 of the 2009 season. Foley was flying at the time averaging a career-high 25.8 disposals per game and we later found out was leading Richmond's best and fairest count at the time.

Richmond has severely lacked that kind of production from the midfield since Foley went down.

Foley who is only 24 will now team up with the other young members of Richmond's midfield Trent Cotchin, Brett Deledio and of course new rookie Dustin Martin.

The Tigers have also named Newman, McGuane, Cousins, Polo and Nahas for this weekend's game remembering this is an extended bench. Out goes Daniel Jackson and Tom Hislop both injured and Post has been left out.
