With seasons on the line and reputations set to be made and ruined, Fremantle will bring back All Australian Centre Half Back, Luke McPharlin and All Australian Freaky Deaky Midfielder, Nathan Fyfe. McPharlin had to spend a week on the sidelines after he uncovered a structural weakness in Jack Darling’s neck and was deemed to have broken an obscure league rule while Fyfe hurt his ankles playing silly buggers in the hotel room. Aaron Sandilands has been named as an emergency and is expected to be lurking about the place just trying to intimidate various Richmond chumps. Lachy Neale will miss out with a quad injury (presumably he grazed his knee running in the quad at lunchtime) and Dylan Roberton is out because Fyfe requires the club’s one headband. In response to Fremantle bringing back two of the AFL’s top players, Richmond have brought Brett O'Hanlon back.
