Richmond has regained the services of talented young pair Daniel Rioli and Corey Ellis for Saturday night’s ‘Dreamtime at the ‘G’ encounter with Essendon.

Rioli missed last Saturday night’s victory over Fremantle at Domain Stadium because of a family illness, while Ellis was rested due to general soreness.

Key defender David Astbury also has been recalled to the Tigers’ line-up.  Astbury was a casualty of the team’s Round 6 loss to Port Adelaide after playing the first six games of the season.

The three players that go out of the side are experienced defender Troy Chaplin, who has a hip injury, while Connor Menadue and Jayden Short have both been omitted.

Richmond’s three emergencies for Friday night’s match are Menadue, Short and Oleg Markov.
