Richmond Tigers vs Melbourne Demons Preview
The ANZAC Day eve game between Richmond and Melbourne is always a special occasion but for the first time it’s Melbourne who have opened up as the short priced favourites for the game.
Richmond look like a middle of the road team at the moment but at the MCG you can never count them out.
Melbourne are undoubtedly the better team at the moment but I can’t take $1.24 about Melbourne given how good the Tigers have played at the MCG in recent years.
Head To Head Bet
We're tipping Melbourne Demons to win at $1.28 odds.
First Goal Scorer
First Goal Scorer: Christian Petracca at $17.
