Richmond vs Melbourne Preview

A truly fascinating game awaits us this Friday night as the Tigers play host to the Dees at Punt Road.

Melbourne head into this game as raging hot $1.26 favourites, after a big win over the Western Bulldogs in Round 1 have many AFLW pundits as their flag fancy – leading the premiership market at $4.25.

Gun Melbourne recruit Tayla Harris eased up forward for the Demons while the midfield looks scary at times.

Richmond, on the other hand, look to be this years improvers.

An impressive 38-point win over the Saints in the season opener and the likes of Mon Conti dominating in the middle with a dynamic forward line of Courtney Wakefield and Katie Brenan worked beautifully.

This Friday night will be a huge test for Richmond, coming up against the experience and class of AFLW establishment side Melbourne.

The Demons should win this one, but expect the Tigers to be highly competitive and there is good value for the underdog.

With the line being set at -15.5, best take the tri-bet option for a bit of value and go either team by 15.5 or less.

You’d expect that team to be Melbourne, but if the Tigers get within a couple of kicks – it’s better to take the even money on offer.
