Richmond’s VFL team will be looking to square the ledger this weekend, when it faces North Ballarat at the ME Bank Centre, in Round 4 the VFL.

Both sides have registered one win from their opening three games, with the Tigers coming off a narrow loss to Geelong last weekend.

Richmond’s team will be bolstered by the inclusions of Ty Vickery and Sam Lloyd from AFL duties, and youngster Reece McKenzie, who was rested last week.

Tigers’ coach Tim Clarke is expecting a fierce, contested style game from North Ballarat.

“They got well beaten on the weekend, and they’re a really proud footy club,” he said.

“They’re well coached, they’re well led by their senior players, and I expect them to come here with a relentless attitude to compete.

“It’s always a contested game here at the ME Bank Centre.  I expect them to come with a real energy for the contest.

“We’re looking forward to trying to shut that down, and get our offensive game up and going, which will hopefully give us a winning score.”
