Back to the topic ppl!

A win tomorrow night will have us jumping up to 7th and sitting a game ahead of those outside the Eight; a loss and we'll be 11th and a game behind those just in the Eight. So a real 8-point match.

Tigers set to tackle Eagle test

3:40pm AEST Monday, June 3, 2013

Richmond will relish the big challenge confronting it at Patersons Stadium tonight, against a strong West Coast outfit, according to Tiger assistant coach Danny Daly.

The Tigers go into the match as clear outsiders, but Daly believes the experience gained from getting within one point of current fourth-placed Fremantle, at the same venue in Round 5, will hold them in good stead.

Richmond coaches put heat on midfielders ahead of crucial match against West Coast

The Tigers have five wins and four losses heading into tonight's season-defining clash against West Coast in Perth.

Richmond was smashed in the middle by Essendon last weekend, with stars Trent Cotchin, Brett Deledio and Dustin Martin all down.

"We were pretty disappointed last week with our midfield ... I've been into the mid this week about the need to come back and bounce back from a performance like that," assistant coach Danny Daly said in Perth.

"That will be where the game is won and lost."

But he said playing in the large expanses of Patersons Stadium would help the Tigers, who were a last-gasp Hayden Ballantyne goal away from pinching a win against Fremantle at the same venue a month ago.

"I think the ground being so long helps our runners in the midfield and our half-back flankers being able to spread hard and work hard forward," Daly said.

"Even though we didn't win to come away and play at Subiaco and match it with Fremantle, who have shown some terrific form since that game, gives the boys some confidence coming over here.

"We trained well during the week and we spoke about that game so hopefully the boys can bring that again this week."

The Tigers received support from an unlikely source, with Eagles coach John Worsfold saying Richmond is on track for success.

"I think Richmond are on a pretty good pathway to becoming a really top side," Worsfold told the Eagles website today.

"Adding (Troy) Chaplin in their back half has given them a good mix down there.

"Their forward line has got good talls as well as good pace, and they are a very good midfield.

"I still see a lot of upside.

"I don't think they're going to have too many players retire over the next two or three years, so I think they have a squad that will be together for another three or four years, which opens up a big window for them."

Former Kangaroo Aaron Edwards will make his Tigers debut tonight while the Eagles - also sitting 5-4 - welcome back veterans Andrew Embley and Adam Selwood.

How the Tigers can beat the Eagles
Luke Sheehan

ANALYSIS: Can Richmond beat West Coast tonight? Luke Sheehan runs through the five things they have to do if they are to achieve the upset victory.

1. Be brave. Pussy footing around cost them against Essendon. They have to back their run from defence and give it to the Bachar Houlis, the Steven Morris' and the Nick Vlaustins. Patersons Stadium is a paddock, and will give them plenty of room to roam. They cannot fear turning it over, though, because the Eagles are going to score at some point anyway - so don't bother chipping it sideways and running yourselves into the ground. It would be better off trying to get it inside 50 quicker, to give Jack Riewoldt and Ty Vickery every chance of getting a step on their opponents.

2. Get down low, and go, go, go. Every man and his dog is aware that the Eagles are trained at drawing high free kicks. It's scientific. They get a lot of them. So, Tiges, before you go charging in trying to prove a point that you're hard as nails, be smart. Get really, really low, bend your knees and try to avoid giving the Eagles a cheap free kick around the stoppages. It might just be the difference.

3. Back your ability. While it certainly was not on show last weekend, the Tigers are actually ranked third for overall disposal efficiency. Equal last in that category are the Eagles. So they should have no fear they are going to be outplayed by a more efficient side, although they also can't rely on the Eagles making blunders without pressure. Regardless, Damien Hardwick's youngsters should back themselves to the hilt that they can blitz their opponents with effective use.

4. Concede a few ruck taps. West Coast have accrued 114 more hitouts than the Tigers this season, a stat Monday night's visitors rank last in by some margin. So, with the dual threat of Nic Naitanui and Dean Cox staring them in the face, it might be worth conceding the tap and doing their utmost to read it.

5. Lift the tackle pressure. It has been barely there for nine rounds, and if it remains so, they can't win. They need to apply hard tackles, and let the West Coast engine room they have a genuine opponent. The Tiges, just like in the hit-outs, rank last in tackles laid in 2013. They have laid just 460 compared to the Eagles' 640. The second worst team, GWS, have 541 to their name. That is a horrible anomaly for a team trying to play finals. They must turn that around immediately, or face dropping out of the final-eight race.
