Coburg will play its opening round of the 2013 season against Sandringham this Sunday with no less than 18 Richmond-listed players making an appearance.
Only Matthew Arnot – who will serve a one-match suspension after last weekend’s practice match – and injured trio Sam Lonergan (hamstring), Nathan Foley (Achilles) and David Astbury (foot), are missing this weekend.
Nick Vlastuin has been named in the centre, while Ben Griffiths has been named in defence, where he will possibly line up against Justin Koschitzke.
The match starts at 2pm on Sunday, at Coburg’s home ground.
