‘Seeya, you’re out’: Tigers’ season could be over in April as horror start tipped to prompt mass cull

Four-time premiership player Jordan Lewis has urged Richmond to make an “honest” assessment of its list early in the season after a “pathetic” performance in its season-opener.

Watch every game of every round this Toyota AFL Premiership Season LIVE with no ad-breaks during play on Kayo. New to Kayo?It creates a tense atmosphere around Richmond’s preparations for Thursday night, as the Blues catapult from a rousing victory against the Lions. Mark Robinson argued Koschitzke didn’t deserve to keep his place in Richmond’s side after managing just four disposals and two marks against the Suns. “Koschitzke looked terrible last week. Like, terrible. He couldn’t survive , there were no excuses of it being first game at the new club.Conversely, the Tigers reintroduced talismanic goalkicker Tom Lynch alongside superstar Dustin Martin, captain Toby Nankervis and improved pressure forward Rhyan Mansell to combat Carlton.

“To me, straight away, they look tougher with their starting lineup. Whether they are good enough , that’s going to be the question of Richmond every week.”Lewis, though, was far from optimistic about the Tigers’ prospects this season, pressing the club to review its squad early in a season where he doesn’t think the yellow and black will be near contention.

“So, I think in the next four or five weeks it is not out of the ordinary to maybe change direction if they don’t see themselves as genuine contenders, which I don’t think they are. Let’s start to see what we’ve got underneath the senior crop that have been so good.
