Sam Lalor Changes Richmond Games in Bursts. Can Richmond Build the Whole Team Around Them?

RTSSG has completed the full member investigation, Sam Lalor Can Change a Game With 16 Disposals. Where Does Richmond Put Him to Change the Team?.

Lalor has won contested ball, changed territory, marked forward and finished scoring chains without needing 30 possessions.

So RTSSG investigated the role Richmond must build around him.

Is Lalor a full-time midfielder, a powerful forward or the hinge connecting both lines?

Which senior and young midfielders make his centre-bounce work more dangerous?

What happens to Campbell, Hotton and Richmond’s key forwards when Lalor rotates ahead of the ball?

How must the club build his body for the role rather than design the role after the next injury?

What would prove the highlights have become a repeatable Richmond system?

Those questions are where the Public companion stops.

The full feature follows Lalor’s low-volume impact into midfield allocation, forward structure, physical preparation and the attacking identity Richmond can build around him.
