Richmond has added three players to its extended squad for Sunday afternoon's crucial clash with Hawthorn at the MCG.

Veteran Tiger Shane Edwards is in line to return after being managed in last Saturday night's win over Port Adelaide.

Tiger cub Rhyan Mansell and ruck Ivan Soldo have also been named in the 26-man squad following impressive performances in the Richmond VFL's 82-point win last Sunday.

Mansell collected 15 disposals, three marks and three inside-50s, while Soldo amassed nine disposals, five marks and 30 hit-outs while hitting the scoreboard with two goals.

"We're a much better team with Ivan in it, there's no doubt about it," Richmond VFL coach Steve Morris said of Soldo's game.

"He's a real presence in the ruck and also up forward. It was another good game from him."

Jason Castagna, last week's activated medical substitute, also features in the extended squad.

Richmond will confirm its starting 22 tomorrow night at 5.00pm AEST.

The Club will then name its medical substitute 60 minutes prior to the bounce on Sunday. 

Sunday’s game will be broadcast live on Fox Footy and Kayo Sports.
