Richmond vs. Fremantle Predictions

—

Best Bet

Fremantle –35.5 @ $1.90

We were considering backing Fremantle 40+ at $2, but we’ll take the –35.5 line as a safer option. Fremantle should be far too good for Richmond, as it looks to win three consecutive games following wins over West Coast and Western Bulldogs.

Everyone expected the Dockers to beat the Eagles, and they did by 38 points. It was a tough win last week, winning 97-81, and that should give them plenty of confidence to kick on with the job and move up the AFL ladder.

Apart from winning their opening game in an upset against Carlton at $10 odds, the Tigers have been poor. They lost heavily to Port Adelaide and St Kilda, and we predict a similar scoreline on Sunday, so back Fremantle to win big.

Same Game Multi

Josh Treacy 3+ Goals, Tim Taranto 25+ Disposals, Total Match Points Over 175.5 @ $4.20

Josh Treacy is a $1.78 chance to score 3+ goals, and he should get many scoring opportunities in front of goal. The Docker has 11 goals from four games, including three in each of his last two games against West Coast and Western Bulldogs.

He is a $1.22 chance to score at least two goals, but we opted for the better value for a three bagger. He’s the Dockers main scoring threat and he could have a field day.

We’re including Tim Taranto 25+ disposals in our Richmond vs. Fremantle multis. He has been strong in a losing team, posting disposal totals of 30, 17, 20, and 29 from his last four games. He’s trying his best to give Richmond a chance of clean ball, and $1.68 is worth including to boost payouts.

Over 175.5 shouldn’t be too hard to cash. Richmond’s last three games have produced 208, 188, and 208 points, mostly because its defence is poor. Look for Fremantle to put up a big total and the over to hit.

Best Value Bet

Michael Frederick 3+ Goals @ $5.00

Looking to post consecutive 3+ goal efforts is Michael Frederick for Fremantle. He scored three against the Western Bulldogs, and he should fancy his chances of scoring three against a poor Richmond defence.

Scoring three isn’t easy, hence the generous AFL odds from bookmakers, but he’s a good value bet in the Richmond vs. Fremantle game.
