Richmond Tigers vs Hawthorn Hawks Preview

Last week’s impressive road win over Port Adelaide was enough to vault Richmond back inside the top eight, and there’s plenty for Damien Hardwick to feel confident about with his side having already beaten the Hawks earlier in the season.

The Tigers ran out comfortable 23-point winners against the Hawks back in Round 9, a game that saw Tom Lynch kick four goals and Dion Prestia enjoy a big day through the midfield.

Lynch has played a big role down the stretch for Richmond, but the Tigers have also been aided by some strong goal-kicking form from Shai Bolton.

The Hawks have nothing left to play for at this point, but they’d like nothing more than to knock off a serious finals contender with an eye towards next year.

Hawthorn held on for a narrow win over the Gold Coast last week in Launceston, largely thanks to a five-goal bag from Jack Gunston.

The star forward has been on fire over the last few weeks and has played a big role in helping the Hawks win four of their last five games.

Form like that warrants respect, but it’s hard to say the likes of Adelaide, West Coast, North, St Kilda, and the Gold Coast are the same caliber opponent as Richmond right now.

The Tigers have won six of their last 10 against Hawthorn, and with a chance to really sew up a place inside the eight, it’s hard to see Richmond dropping this game.
