In the wake of a second disappointing away loss in succession, Richmond coach Danny Frawley and tall defender Ray Hall both declared next week’s clash with the Kangaroos as a virtual final for the Tigers.
After three successive wins, the Tigers have lost momentum with successive interstate defeats at the hands of Port Adelaide and West Coast.
Perched precariously on four wins and six losses but still close to the top eight, they return to Melbourne to face the Kangaroos at Telstra Dome on Saturday night and Frawley said Richmond’s season was on the line.
“We are still not out of it yet, we’ve got a huge game next week,” he said. “It is going to be one that I think all our measures and where we want to get to as a group are going to come to the front.
“It is going to be exciting to be playing in a pressure cooker situation.
“It is probably a mini-final for us,” he said.
Hall, one of a handful of Richmond players to win his position against the Eagles by keeping Andrew McDougall goalless, agreed with Frawley.
“Next week is a big game for us,” he said. “Our season is pretty much on the line and we have to come out pretty hard in the first quarter and go on with it.”
Hall said the Tigers were disappointed they had squandered the momentum gained with three straight wins.
“To be where we were and to get back into a winning position…in two games, we’ve let it slip away a bit and now we have to fight back again,” he said.
“But we are still a really good chance of making the finals and that is what we have to aim for.”
