Richmond will be boosted by the return to on-field action this week of livewire small forward Jake King . . .
King will reclaim his place in the line-up for the big Round 15 clash with Carlton on Saturday, following a one-match suspension, much to the delight of Tiger fans, coaches and players alike.
“’Kingy is a very important player to us,” star Richmond midfielder Trent Cotchin said in this week’s Roar Vision Review with Nathan Brown.
“He can do a defensive role, but he also sets up a lot of the structure stuff in the forward half for us.
“So, missing a guy, who has such a voice on the field, and a presence, is always hurtful. But we’re looking forward to having him back this week and I’m sure he’ll influence the game as he normally does.”
King has kicked 19 goals in 11 games for the Tigers this season.
