Richmond still has just one win to show for their efforts this season after they went down 42-85 to Melbourne in their latest outing.

The Dockers, meanwhile, have won four of their seven games and were slightly unlucky to come on the wrong side of one or two others after going down in closely contested games against Carlton and Port Adelaide.

Last time out, Fremantle snapped a three-game losing streak by defeating the Western Bulldogs in Perth by 24 points in Round 7.

Richmond vs Fremantle team news

Richmond Tigers team news

It’s a difficult time for Richmond with injuries hampering any chance of them avoiding the bottom four so far this season. Jacob Hopper is the latest casualty after injuring his hamstring last weekend. He joins the likes of Tom Lynch, Dion Prestia, Tim Taranto, Jayden Short and Noah Balta on the sidelines.

Fremantle Dockers team news

Fresh from returning to winning ways, Fremantle will be boosted by the returns of forwards Sam Switkowski and Jye Amiss this weekend, strengthening their attack. Josh Draper will be out of action for the next few weeks with a minor hamstring injury. Sam Sturt was named as an emergency last week and may consider himself unlucky to be dropped against the Bulldogs.
