Richmond VFL has named its side for Saturday afternoon's Dreamtime game at the MCG.
The clash against the Bombers will be played as a curtain-raiser prior to Saturday night's Dreamtime at the 'G blockbuster.
The VFL Tigers will proudly wear Richmond's 2023 Dreamtime guernsey for the match, designed by AFL assistant coach and former VFL coach Xavier Clarke.
Coming into the line-up is Tylar Young, who returns from injury, fellow AFL-listed Tiger Ben Miller, who has been omitted at senior level, and exciting young VFL player Luke Teal.
Out of the side is omitted duo Tom Bracher and Joel Nathan, alongside Garrett McDonagh, who was injured in last weekend's match against Geelong.
Saturday afternoon's game kicks off at 2.35pm. Anyone with a ticket to Richmond's Dreamtime at the 'G match will also be able to attend the curtain-raiser for free.
If fans can't make it, they can watch live via the AFL website and the AFL Live Official App.
Stay tuned to Richmond VFL on Twitter and Instagram for all the updates.
