Richmond’s VFL side will be bolstered by four inclusions for Saturday’s clash against the GWS Giants at ENGIE Stadium in Sydney. 

AFL-listed players Noah Balta, Maurice Rioli and Samson Ryan have all been brought into Jake Batchelor’s line-up, with Tom McKenzie also called up.

Coming out of the team is Dion Prestia and Tyler Sonsie due to AFL commitments, Austin Johnson, who is unavailable for the interstate trip, and Lachlan Street due to minor calf soreness. 

The VFL Tigers will face the Giants at 12:30pm on Saturday, as the first game in a double-header before the same fixture in the AFL at 4:15pm. 

During the week, AFL coach Adem Yze said the Club is going to Sydney as a united group who is “on a mission”. 

Richmond enters the Round 10 clash sitting eighth on the ladder and has a chance to secure what would be a huge road victory against the third-placed GWS.

The first bounce at ENGIE Stadium is set for 12:30pm on Saturday.

All matches in the 2025 Smithy’s VFL and VFLW seasons will be live streamed free via the AFL website, AFL Live Official App and VFL App.
