Richmond vs Western Bulldogs Prediction
A huge Saturday night clash with massive consequences for the Western Bulldogs awaits when they travel a short kick from Marvel Stadoum to the MCG when they face the struggling Tigers.
Richmond came off their most damaging loss of the season last time out against the Dockers despite showing some fight and spirit in the second half. However, it was all too late after managing just one goal in the first half of the match.
It isn’t looking pretty for Adem Yze’s men, who currently sit 17th with just one win from their opening eight games. They are arguably a couple of wins short considering their horrible injury list of key players throughout the spine of the squad. However, this is a good chance for youngsters to shine in a dark cave.
Elsewhere, life is just as doom and gloom in Footscray after a shocking seven-point defeat against the struggling Hawks. One player who can hold his head high is Marcus Bontempelli, who had 26 disposals and two goals. He looks like he could have another monster game on Saturday night.
There has been a lot of off-field discussion involving Luke Beveridge’s position as head coach, no thanks to Sam Draper’s podcast comments. But in all seriousness, if they happen to lose this could very well be the end. Although he would be confident in his side prevailing, considering they won both meetings between the two sides last season.
