RICHMOND v WESTERN BULLDOGS

Saturday 11 May @ MCG

Two disappointments from last Sunday are racking up the losses.

You probably expected that from Richmond given all the injuries they're dealing with. But the Bulldogs aren't in that space and were looking at Finals.

Facing the Dockers at the MCG would normally have them right in the game but they faded fast and couldn't get the biggest of names into the swing.

Bolton with only 13 touches and Baker 18 are in their most damaging list and while Martin had a bit of it, he didn't do much with it.

In tackling the Bulldogs, they get a side right on the rebound and nervously motivated for a huge effort.

Surely they had Hawthorn ripe for the picking at home and yet after a rollicking start, put the cue in the rack. They needed a rocket.

Even then they hit the front in the last stanza yet were over-run. Something is missing as it's not for playing talent.

Liberatore wasn't having as good a year as recently, Bontempelli can't will them home and those big men up front get left cold without enough ball.

This smells like a backlash will happen here. It will be on from the jump and the Bulldogs will be red hot at the contest having been taken on in the media.
