Richmond Tigers vs St Kilda Saints Preview
St Kilda’s fading finals hopes go on the line against Richmond at the MCG after a costly 106-62 defeat to Carlton. The Saints lost Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera to a hamstring injury early, while Liam Ryan, Tom De Koning, Bradley Hill and Mason Wood also finished the match under injury clouds. Richmond carries more encouragement into the contest after leading Adelaide by 13 points in the second half before falling 63-54. The Tigers have shown greater competitiveness late in the season and should test a depleted opponent, although St Kilda won the teams’ Round 10 meeting by 36 points. Tom Lynch offers Richmond an important focal point inside 50 and is among the leading first-goal options in a match that could remain tight.
