Richmond has recalled premiership duo Daniel Butler and Josh Caddy for Saturday night’s match against Melbourne at the MCG.
Butler returns to the side for his first senior game since Round 13 and his seventh of the year.
The lively forward has impressed at VFL level in recent weeks, biding his time for a senior opportunity.
