High Performance Manager Ben Serpell has confirmed Maurice Rioli will be available for selection in Richmond’s Round 14 Tasmanian home game against the Brisbane Lions next weekend.
Rioli returns from a hamstring injury he suffered in Round 6, while a group of four Tigers have been upgraded to a test.Â
Captain Toby Nankervis (hamstring), Taj Hotton (hip), Tom Brown (forearm) and Zane Peucker (syndesmosis) are all tests, as they inch closer to a return.
Jack Ross and Samson Ryan both presented with concussion symptoms after this past weekend's AFL and VFL games, respectively, and have been placed in the concussion protocols. Due to the unpredictable nature of concussions, both players have been listed as TBC.Â
