Richmond will be looking to consolidate its upset victory over Sydney last weekend, when it takes on Greater Western Sydney at the MCG this Saturday.
The Tigers have notched victories against top four sides Fremantle and the Swans in a recent run of five wins in six games, after starting the season with a 2-4 record.
Richmond’s disappointing start to the campaign included a loss to 15th placed Melbourne.

“We’ve probably had some performances where we haven’t played as well as we’d like,” said Richmond coach Damien Hardwick.
“If you look back a season of 22 games, we’ve won probably 16 and lost six, so our performances have been relatively consistent.
“Sure, we’ve dropped some games, but all sides do.”

To avoid a letdown after a strong performance last week, Hardwick pointed to a simple, process-driven approach for the players to adopt.
“We need to make sure we prepare as well as we can, tick every box in regard to preparation and come out and play the way we know we should,” he said.
“We speak about the process that goes about bringing about the result.
“That’s really important for us, and most teams would be in a similar type of format with regard to that.
“We’ve just got to continue to set about our standards, make sure we play to the best of our ability, and make sure everyone plays their role.
“If we do that, we give ourselves a chance of winning the game.”
