Skipper Katie Brennan re-joins Richmond’s AFLW line-up for their return to the Swinburne Centre after missing last weekend with an ankle complaint.
Prior to missing last Sunday’s clash with the Kangaroos at UTAS Stadium, the 32-year-old featured in all five Richmond games to start the season.

Sarah Hosking will also return to face the Magpies on Saturday afternoon after she was a late exclusion for the Tigers last Sunday (managed).
The 28-year-old has booted four goals from her four outings for Richmond AFLW this season.
Brennan and Hosking replace Stella Reid and Laura McClelland, who have both been omitted.
Caitlin Greiser will play her 50th AFLW game on Saturday afternoon.
In her first season at AFLW level with St. Kilda in 2020, Greiser burst onto the scene winning the side’s best and fairest, earning All-Australian honours and winning the league’s leading goal kicker award.
The 25-year-old also received the AFLW's Goal of the Year award in 2023, her first year as a Tiger.
Richmond’s three emergencies for the clash at the Swinburne Centre are McClelland, Jemima Woods and Molly Eastman.
The first bounce is set for 3:05pm at the Swinburne Centre, with gates open from 2:00pm.
Saturday afternoon’s game will be broadcast live from Fox Footy from 3:00pm AEST, and will also be available via live-stream on the AFL Live Official App and Kayo.
