Western Bulldogs vs Richmond Tigers Preview

The Western Bulldogs will look to strengthen their grip on a finals berth when they take on struggling Richmond at Marvel Stadium on Saturday night. The Dogs continue to build momentum after an important win over Gold Coast, opening a healthy buffer inside the top 10 with just five rounds remaining.

Marcus Bontempelli again inspired his side with three goals in another match-winning display, underlining why he remains one of the competition’s most influential players. Richmond, meanwhile, slipped to the bottom of the ladder after a heavy defeat to Hawthorn and is now in line for the No. 1 draft pick. History also favours the Bulldogs, who have won four straight meetings between the clubs, including a 79-point demolition last season. With plenty still to play for, the Dogs will expect to continue their charge towards September.
