Richmond Tigers vs Sydney Swans Preview

The Swans are up and about and have started season 2021 in an absolute flurry, with this amazing style of moving the ball directly down the corridor, taking full advantage of the forward line and high scoring – a far cry from when they had 75,000 men in the backline last time they played the Tigers.

Richmond is just doing what they need to do at the early stage of the season.

They did all the damage early against a plucky Hawthorn, claimed a comfortable lead at quarter time and never looked back.

With some added Dustin Martin brilliance and a cast of 21 other men many of whom are multiple premiership players, there is no sign that the Tigers are done with yet.

Saturday afternoons contest at the MCG will prove a great test to see where this exciting, young Swans outfit is at against the best in the business.

While it was terrific to see Buddy Franklin back in action, it’s looking more likely that Sydney will rest him with a softly softly approach to his return to footy.

It’s a great shame as given the more one on one nature of the game right now, Buddy taking on Dylan Grimes or Noah Balta would make for excellent viewing – as it did when he matched up with Alex Rance back in the day, what a shame.

The line has been set at -22.5 in favour of Richmond, and I’m expecting the Tigers to cover it.
