Richmond vs. Gold Coast Predictions

Best Bet

Gold Coast -44.5 @ $1.90

Gold Coast has won the last three games against Richmond, including a 94-66 win last year. We believe Gold Coast has improved significantly since that game, and Richmond has gone the other way.

After scoring an upset win over Carlton in the opening game of the year, Richmond has since lived up to its pre-season expectations. It lost 108-47 to Fremantle last week, and losing 140-68 to Port Adelaide and 135-53 to St Kilda don’t bode well.

The SUNS have been playing much better, scoring wins over West Coast, Melbourne, Adelaide, and North Melbourne. Three of those teams are not good, but neither are Richmond, so covering the –44.5 spread shouldn’t be difficult for the road team.

Same Game Multi

Gold Coast 40+, Ben Long 2+ Goals, Ben King 3+ Goals, Total Match Points Under 182.5 @ $7.50

It should be a comfortable win for Gold Coast, and because we don’t mind taking shorter odds in our same game multis, we’re taking $1.65 for Gold Coast 40+. We’re also including under 182.5, and that’s because Richmond struggles to score.

The Tigers could score around 60 points, and although Gold Coast will rack up a big number, we’re putting that number below 120 points.

Ben Long and Ben King are prolific goal scorers, and they’ll be licking their lips at the proposition of facing Richmond. Long has kicked five goals in his last two games, and he’s a $1.69 chance to kick a double on Saturday. King is a $1.39 to kick three, and although the odds are short, he has 17 goals from just four games.

It could pay to ride the hottest players on the field in this game.

Best Value Bet

John Noble @ $2.50

John Noble had 28 disposals last week against the Kangaroos, and he can reach those levels again.

He also had 29 against Melbourne, so his best performances come against weak teams, and they don’t get much weaker than the Tigers. We expect him to have a big game, and the $2.50 odds are mouthwateringly good.

Include him in your Richmond vs. Gold Coast picks for this weekend’s big game.
