Richmond Tigers vs West Coast Eagles Preview
Neither of these two teams will feature in September and It’s hard to get excited about a match up between 16th and 18th.
The Tiges have lost their last five in a row including a four goal loss the the Suns last weekend.
Expectations are now low but they get the perfect opponent to bounce back against this Saturday afternoon.
Interestingly Richmond are first for clangers this season with an average of 65.9 per game and West Coast are last with just 55.5.
The Tigers are having no trouble winning the ball out of the middle ranking second in centre clearances and they have more inside 50s per game than any team except Geelong.
West Coast struggled to stop teams scoring and have conceded the most points of any team in the AFL.
I expect Richmond to win this game as well as putting on a big score.
