Richmond Tigers vs North Melbourne Kangaroos Preview
Saturday marks the end of an era for the Richmond footy club with Premiership legends Jack Riewoldt and Trent Cotchin officially hanging up the boots.
Three straight losses have basically penned a line through the Tigers’ finals chances, but this does shape as a minor revenge game after suffering a shock upset to North Melbourne last year.
The Roos have put together two encouraging performances against Melbourne and Essendon in recent weeks, but their growing injury list remains a concern over the final fortnight.
Gun midfielder George Wardlaw has been ruled out for the remainder of the year with a hamstring injury, joining Jaidyn Stephenson on the sideline.
Looking to send two club heroes into the sunset, the Tigers should win, and win big.
