Richmond vs. Geelong Predictions
—
Best Bet
The –59.5 line isn’t easy to cover, but if there is one team capable of covering big spreads, it’s the Cats.
They won 111-68 last week against Sydney, which continued the winning streak having beaten the likes of Essendon, Port Adelaide, and North Melbourne by big margins. They have enough scoring power to beat any team by a big margin, and Richmond could be in for a long day.
The Tigers have totals of 87, 52, 23, and 57 points in their last four games, which doesn’t bode well for them. They are one of the worst teams in the AFL, and we can’t see them scoring enough points to keep up with Geelong.

Same Game Multi
Punters get better odds than expected for Tyson Stengle and Patrick Dangerfield, who could have big scoring games against Richmond.
Stengle has been solid throughout 2025, and although his recent form hasn’t been amazing, he should fancy his chances on Saturday. The same goes for Dangerfield, who hasn’t been at his scoring best, but he’s likely to get forward and kick 2+ goals.
With Richmond struggling to score points, we’re backing the under in our Richmond vs. Geelong SGM picks. The Tigers could struggle to score over 50 points, so back the under.

Best Value Bet
Tyler Sonsie will be kept busy at the back for Richmond, and punters get good odds for him to record 20+ disposals.
He has had three 20+ games in the last five weeks, so he’s doing what he can to stem the flow of scoring against Richmond. He will get plenty of ball on Saturday, so he should rack up the numbers.
