Preview:

This game could go a long way to determining home field advantage throughout the finals.

Richmond is the in-form side after hammering the Suns by 92-points last week, but they’ll be hoping for a little revenge on their blowout loss to the Giants back in Round 3.

The Giants hit a snag last week against Lions, falling 20-points short at home in their second consecutive loss.

The problems were evident from the get-go as GWS struggled to build momentum and establish clean inside 50 entries. Sloppy turnovers also cost the Giants in the end; an area Leon Cameron’s side needs to tidy up ahead of their trip to face the Tigers.

The Giants’ losing record at the MCG is well documented, a number the Tigers have certainly contributed to. Since joining the league in 2012, GWS has lost all four of its games against Richmond at the home of footy.

Richmond were deadly in front of goal last week, and while the Giants will have their hands full with Tom Lynch and Dustin Martin, they’ll need to be wary of Daniel Rioli, who has booted 11 goals in his last five games against GWS.

The Tigers are 9-1 as the home favourite over the last year and a perfect 3-0 against GWS.

Three of their four games at the MCG have been decided by 1-39 points and considering the Giants haven’t played Richmond at the ‘G since 2017, the Tigers should win a close one.
