From the limited vision and photos put out by the club its looks like Amiss, Switta, and more surprising Draper are all ready to go. Must admit I was not expecting Draper to be in sprinting and tackling exercises, he looks good.

I reckon Richmond would have something to say there.
Agree those stats are very misleading, best 22ish is best but then it becomes subjective.
The first rung is key players, which would roughly be your top 10
Second is best 22ish, as in who would be first picked on the park
Last I'd suggest would be specific roles, you could only lose 2-3 players but if it's in a specific role or one you have poor depth it can create bigger issues
13 is our last round before the bye?
Surely we are better waiting til after the bye for his return.

Maybe his hamstring was too embarrassed to stand next to Rory Lobb as that's the player he was blitzing before getting subbed out.
It is our bye lol. Should mean he’ll be ready to go fresh off the bye
Gets a run at peel on the bye, it's a long time out
He is generally one of the straight in players but jeez it backfired in round 1, a half at lower standards would be handy imo
Wtf happened to switta?
Maybe the rumours are true

Or maybe he isn't fully recovered from his concussion. In the video on Tuesday it was mentioned he still had some tests he had to pass.

I don't always look through the main threads, it was a bit further down. Would be a real hit if he left in my opinion, many players are hitting peak age then walking out. Hopefully it's just bs rumour stuff, but hard to feel confident after recent seasons. Also, another bloody forward

Mmmm not really. If he left Baker would most likely replace him which is an upgrade. We replace an injury-prone player who averages 0.8 score with an experienced and classy premiership player.

Huh, never looked at it this way. I suppose you make a valid argument. Wonder on this basis if Richmond would entertain the idea of Switta + Kilda's 2nd rounder for Baker?! Probably not, but it would allow Freo to keep those other 1sts in play for Warner and maybe a draft pick
Stanley, Taberner and Noddy left off the list but all missing from Peel
Nathan still hasn't recovered from his injury is what I've been told.

This is why I don't think we should rush Draper back
At training, looks all fine and rosy
In a game with fatigue, this will occur.

Yes that is the usual scenario and I thought they would take Hughes just in case.This is why I don't think we should rush Draper back

But on this occasion it looks like the kid cramped (probably never had this before) and club being cautious took him straight off. Nothing showed on the scan and he was sprinting, jumping and tackling at Thursdays training. I can guarantee that Rozee was not at that level and was on a 6 day break not a 8 day break.
He looked completely fine.
Sometimes tightness / cramp can feel like minor strain. Even more difficult if you haven’t done a hamstring before.
I’m in my 40’s playing supers and done quite a few hamstrings. Game at Joondalup last year thought I had done a decent hamstring. Tapped out iced the bugger was a bit stiff for a day or two but all good and running a few days later. I didn’t have the luxury of scans and a bunch of quality physios on hand. I’m sure Draper will be fine and aside from an extra couple of days he doesn’t do the power of running that Rozee does. Rozee’s hamstring doesn’t look all that serious to be honest anyway.
So you're saying you had hamstring awareness when you woke up. Anything else draw your attention?
