Melbourne Demons vs Richmond Tigers Preview
Will this weeks fixture change be a blessing or a curse for the Tigers? They were originally scheduled to play West Coast on Thursday night. Now they face the Demons in what’s almost a must-win game for the reining premiers.
Melbourne we’re pretty disappointing against Geelong last week but almost rallied to win in the last quarter.
We’re sticking with Richmond for this game but if they can’t win this then it could be a long season for Tigers fans.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Richmond Tigers to win at $1.45 odds.
First Goal Scorer
First Goal Scorer: Jack Riewoldt at $9.50.
