I actually think the Blues will take out this one. Richmond, after being talked up year after year to make finals, they finally make it in 2013, there's a lot of pressure and expectations on them. They strike me as a vulnerable side in party mode, and Carlton will pounce on them. Carlton 126-Richmond 62 P.S, don't you think it's ironic that the year Richmond finally make the finals, it's the year that 9th spot gets in due to unusual circumstances? (Essendon drug scandal)
I'm betting on a thumping by the blues to the tiges. No experience in the finals at all will show this weekend.
On paper and form, you'd have to go for Richmond, but they've had trouble putting Carlton away recently. Could be a cracker. I reckon a lot of people will be hoping Richmond do OK this year. Richmond 67 Carlton 62
