Show Preview
It’s now or never for both the Melbourne Demons and the Richmond Tigers as they look to revive their fortunes at the MCG. Join The Roar for live scores from 3:35pm (AEST).
After having their Round 3 match postponed, the Demons were competitive but cold against Geelong last week. They fell just short by three points, but it was not the kind of performance to hang your hat on. Coupled with an uninspiring one-point win over Carlton, it’s hard to know whether the Melbourne of 2018 are back.
That doesn’t compare to how shocking Richmond have been since the season resumed. They too were unconvincing against the Blues in Round 1, and have failed to win a game since then. It’s been a stunning slump for the reigning premiers, with some pundits wondering whether their time in the sun is quickly ending.
This has been a fixture the Tigers have enjoyed in recent years; they’ve won the last four encounters and eight of the previous 11. Last year’s two meetings saw Richmond prevail by 43 points in Round 6 and 33 points in Round 20.
