Round 22: Match Review

It could be argued that Richmond picked up where they left off in the final term against Geelong last week, particularly in the first half against the Saints. The opportunities were there – for St. Kilda in the first half and for Richmond in the...

Richmond has won the last five matches against the Saints, but they will prove no easy-beats on Saturday afternoon. They have been acclaimed throughout this season for their capacity to stifle opponents with an intense physical approach. Richmond...

Round 21: Match Preview

It was Round 9, 2006 when Richmond last managed a victory over Geelong – with Brett Deledio the only remaining Tiger on the list from that win, yet the victories the Cats secured in the past two seasons have been less than 10 points. The argument...

It’s been a decade since Richmond last beat Geelong and the team the faces them on Sunday afternoon should for all intents and purposes stay relatively unchanged. However, that doesn’t mean some AFL-listed players in the VFL are not seriously...

Round 19: Team Forecast

The fact that Damien Hardwick labelled Richmond’s fourth quarter against Hawthorn last Saturday afternoon as ‘shameful’ means that team changes should not be ruled out ahead of their match against Greater Western Sydney this Saturday afternoon...

Round 18: Match Preview

Hawthorn have not beaten Richmond twice in the same season since 1992, but even though the Tigers have troubled the Hawks in the past, that Damien Hardwick is blooding the kids makes an upset on Sunday afternoon unlikely. It will be game #46 between...

Round 17: Team Forecast

There should be minimal changes to the Richmond team that narrowly lost to the Dogs last Saturday night. The sweeping changes made last week appear to have delivered results, in that the young Tigers really stood up when it counted. One Tiger that...
