HAWTHORN coach Alastair Clarkson has confirmed that Cyril Rioli will return for tomorrow night’s clash against the Sydney Swans.
Rioli missed last week’s game against Fremantle to attend to family matters in the Northern Territory, but Clarkson declared the star Hawk a certain starter when speaking to the media at training this morning.
“He’s back from the Northern Territory, so he’ll be selected to play,” Clarkson said.
“Cyril is right to go and we’re looking forward to having the little fella back.”
Rioli has enjoyed a strong start to the 2016, contributing as a forward and in the midfield.
He has kicked 14 goals from seven games, and is averaging 13.1 disposals and 6.6 tackles per match.
