Richmond is unchanged from the team named on Thursday evening, which included four players dropped after last week's disappointing loss to Hawthorn.
Daniel Rioli, Ivan Soldo, Jack Graham and Marlion Pickett were omitted and played in Saturday morning's scratch match win over St Kilda, with superstar Dustin Martin, premiership ruckman Toby Nankervis and defensive duo Kamdyn McIntosh and Liam Baker returning to the team.

Small forward Dean Kent replaces Ryder, who has been managed, with young gun Rowan Marshall now likely to handle the bulk of the ruck responsibilities.
The Saints had already made one alteration for the match earlier this week, with speedster Nick Hind replaced by athletic tall Josh Battle.
