Preview:
The Brisbane Lions will host Richmond Tigers on Saturday night in what looks to be a very even match on paper despite the Tigers beating the Lions in the last round of the competition.
The Lions have been very good at the Gabba this year and having the home final is a massive advantage although the Tigers have been clearly the best team in the latter stages of the season and will take a lot of beating.
We have Richmond on top to win this one but it certainly wont be as easy as they had it at the MCG on the weekend.
Richmond to win narrowly but we wouldnt talk anyone out of backing the Lions but we would think they will drift a bit in the betting so hold out for better odds.
