Richmond Tigers vs GWS Giants Preview

The Giants reestablished themselves as a genuine contender in 2024 with a statement come from behind win against the Blues last week.

Another four points seem right on the horizon, with a much easier task against the Tigers at the MCG, their first visit there this year.

It was midfield pressure and intensity that lifted the Giants after a slow start, and the way they opened up the ground was filled with energy to hit the scoreboard in a flurry.

Richmond is now placed last on the ladder, and their season is now set up with the dilemma of how much they want to win versus how much they want the number one pick.

A lack of draft class in recent years has been evident this year, with no sustainable depth to remain competitive in the competition.

Whilst the Tigers can turn it on for spurts, they’re quite easily overrun with a bit of pace and switch of play in transition.

There’s a big task for Noah Balta to shut down Jesse Hogan in his hot form, but the problems only grow from there with the Giants plethora of options offensively.
