The Tigers have bounced back from their mid-season nadir and are capable of pushing the Hawks all the way when they meet on Saturday.

Remember, the Tigers early season form was far from hopeless, and they even boast a win over the Swans – the only side to do so this season.

Tom Lynch comes back into the side that beat Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval last week, as does Dusty.

Hawthorn’s recent form is hard to fault but for a young side to retain this level of consistency is very difficult.

The Hawks haven’t beaten Richmond since 2020 and were upset by the Tigers in this clash last year.

Keen on the Tigers with the points in this one.

The over looks a good play in this one. The last four games between these two sides have gone over and the return of Lynch really benefits the Tigers scoring power, even if it’s just to allow the lesser forwards to get easier matchups.

Will Day has been outstanding for the Hawks since returning from injury and has hit 25 in three of his last four. Tim Taranto can do the same for the Tigers.
