Well the part of the hip which was injured was an attachment to the groin. By coming back in three weeks from a six week injury he has probably placed great strain on his groin which has been a problem area. The flair up would mean prolonged rest or playing on needles again. It's a matter of whether the medical team if thinking long-term or short-term. The latter and he may have a very short career. The former and he won't play much this year but he may be able to have another couple of quality seasons. Richmond has erred on the side of caution with Coughlan.

If it has come down to a choice like that he is way too young for them to consider pumping full of drugs to make it through the season at the risk of shortening his career.

Surely the best indicator on Sunday will not be the size of the victory but whether we play at our best for the full 4 quarters.

Nothing less than a 10 goal plus win will satisfy me that we are back on track.If we can't destroy rabbles on our on dirt patch we are going to struggle this year.I was as disgusted with the umpiring as most people but it is hiding the fact we played poorly for 3 and half quarters.

Here, here BS, we have to put the cellar dwellers away and boost percentage, if we let this slip, both us and Tiges will be 3-4!!!!!

If the team is thinking about 10 goal wins, we'll most probably lose to Richmond.

As the experts will tell you, "its a very even comp", so if we play crap and they play as well as they can, we'll lose. This game is no gimme, considering they get Richo and Stafford back. Although Im confidently expecting a win, Im not about to get disappointed if we win by 5 goals compared to 10. For mine, its more important to see our rebound and midfield get back to what we saw last year, and not the stop-start chip kicking we've seen of late.
