Deledio a late withdrawal for Tigers

Richmond suffered a blow ahead of Sunday night's clash against Melbourne with Brett Deledio a late withdrawal.

Richmond star Brett Deledio was a late withdrawal from the Tigers' side to face Melbourne at the MCG on Sunday night.

Deledio, 29, has been sidelined by a quad injury for the first four rounds of the season but was due to make a welcome return to the line-up for the struggling side that has won just one game in his absence.

The veteran was replaced in the team by former Greater Western Sydney midfielder Jacob Townsend.
