The Tigers are back and they're making a mighty noise

Richmond has booked a dream run to its first Grand Final since 1982 and the Tiger Army can dare to dream after years of torment. Lost finals between 2013-15 hung over this group like a black cloud, but they were banished to the past on Friday night as a new breed of Tigers stamped themselves as contenders. Richmond will play one of Greater Western Sydney, Port Adelaide or West Coast in an MCG preliminary final in two weeks and should be favoured to get through to the decider. Not only can the Tigers make it, they can win it. Their supporters turned the MCG into a cauldron, booing the Cats as they ran onto the ground and roaring on the final siren. The crowd of 95,028 was a weapon for the Tigers and their army will be deafening through September.
