Richmond has made just one change for Sunday’s big Round 20 match against Hawthorn at the MCG with key midfielder Dion Prestia coming back into the line-up.
Prestia was rested from the Tigers’ victory over his former team Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium last Saturday night because of knee and calf soreness.

“Last week, it was touch and go. Six-day break, we were probably going to be a little conservative with that,” Richmond coach Damien Hardwick said.
“He's done a lot of training this week to get up and go.”
Prestia replaces talented, young small forward Shai Bolton, who has been omitted.
