Richmond has confirmed its extended squad of 24 for Sunday's clash with Gold Coast at Ikon Park. 

Utility Meagan Kiely is in line to play her first game of the 2023 season after overcoming a back injury.

The Tigers have also named a potential debutant in 20-year-old ruck Lilly Pearce.

Pearce landed at Richmond in July as a replacement player for the 2023 season after dominating in the QAFLW competition for Southport, averaging 35 hit-outs per game.

Two train-on players have also been added to the extended squad, Shannon Danckert and Lauren Caruso. 

Under AFLW Rules, the two are able to be added to the team list, as the Club’s injury list of eight players means only 22 fit players remain available for selection. 

Amelia Peck and Shelby Knoll are both unavailable for selection after suffering respective thigh and knee injuries at training this week.

Danckert played seven AFLW games for Gold Coast across two years before she was delisted in March.

The 26-year-old spent the winter playing for Casey at VFLW level, where she averaged 18 disposals across the campaign, including a dominant end to the season where she recorded a combined 73 disposals and 27 tackles in her final three matches.

Twenty-three-year-old Caruso was a pivotal member of Port Melbourne's premiership-winning VFLW side.

The midfielder was unanimously voted the winner of the Lisa Hardeman Medal for best on ground in the Grand Final, and was also crowned as the Club's Best and Fairest winner for 2023. 

Out of the side that lost to Fremantle by seven points last Friday is Sarah Hosking, who suffered a hamstring injury in the encounter but is hoping for a Round 7 return. 

Richmond will name its final Round 6 side on Friday at 5.00pm.
