Richmond is hopeful experienced duo Chris Newman and Daniel Jackson will be available for this Saturday’s clash with St Kilda at Etihad Stadium.
 
Newman missed last Friday night’s match against Sydney with a minor groin injury, just one week after he returned from a calf strain.
Jackson has missed the past three games with a hip flexor complaint, after playing eight straight matches from Rounds 3-11.
 
The pair has two training sessions to get through during the week to impress the fitness staff, in order to be ready to play against the Saints.
 
Tiger key forward Ty Vickery is available for selection, after serving a two-match suspension for striking.
 
Richmond’s AFL-listed players escaped injury in the VFL team’s 60-point loss to North Ballarat on Sunday.
