The fact that Richards has been retained would suggest that he is seen as a required player. I would like to see him back in defence where he played his best football. Happy to see him at half back to allow us to move Duryea to half forward, where he was good enough to play in 2 Premierships with Hawthorn. We desperately need better players in attack. Maclean has had a terrible run with injury and at his best was in our best 22. Time may have past him by. Does he still have the leg speed, which was lacking in the GF against a lot quicker Melbourne at ground level.
