Richmond Tigers vs North Melbourne Kangaroos, Round 10 2025 - Expert Prediction

This game is going to be a nail biter and the line of 9.5 is a little too long so I am backing the underdog Tigers to cover in a low-scoring contest.

Richmond Tigers vs North Melbourne Kangaroos AFL 2025 Round 10 FAQ’s

The Tigers and the Roos have been improving with every week and the battle at the bottom of the table will be well and truly alive on Sunday afternoon.

The Tigers have three wins already this season, but it has been North Melbourne who have put in the better performance without getting the desired result. The team that draws on their performance last week in close matchups will win this one.

As both teams have been getting better it is their backline that has been more stiff while also managing to move the ball forward, giving more opportunities to gain entries into their opposition 50 and win more possession and territory. Ball movement will be key and I see Kangaroos midfielder Luke Davies-Uniacke continuing to get plenty of touches for the Roos.

Expect this game to bog down in the midfield as the pair fight for the hard balls, keeping this game low scoring and the margin close.

2 of Richmond’s 3 wins this season have come at the MCG.
5 of the last 6 matches between Richmond and North Melbourne have gone under the game total.
The last 5 Richmond matches have gone well under the game total of 171.5 points
Luke Davies-Uniacke has made 25+ disposals in his last 6 matches.

Richmond snagged their third victory of the season beating the Eagles at the MCG in a nail biting 81-79 result.

The lead changed 15 times in the match with the Tigers taking the early ascendancy and needing to come back twice in the fourth quarter to snatch the victory from West Coast.

The young cubs have had a mixture of performances this season and will once again take a lot out of the battle against West Coast, learning to battle and create a fighting spirit once again at the club.

North Melbourne were within a boundary kick with 80 seconds to go in snatching the biggest upset in the AFL in years when Cameron Zuhraar had a shot from outside the field to give the Kangaroos a lead but luckily snagged a behind with the match ending 71-71.

The Kangaroos showed character, coming back from a low scoring half at 40-20 to the Lions, clawing their way back to take the lead mid-way through the fourth.

As it is the same with their opponent this week, Richmond, these performances build the character that they can build on for the rest of the season.
