Another thing stopping us belting the lions tmrw is the fact if west coast and Geelong win its not in our best interests to have a big win. A 60 point margin would have us overtake them and send us interstate first week.Brisbane are way too good to get smashed by 50+ points in my opinion. It could happen of course if we’re talking possibilities, but I think it’s likely for it to either end up a close game or a classic Richmond “thumping” at the MCG - a 20-30 point win.
I’m going with a closer Richmond win between 12-18 points because we usually don’t have games with sub 12 point margins this year (Port at AO and West Coast last week the exceptions). We’ve also become a fairly reliable team in the H&A season when something important is on the line like a top 4 spot.
