Changes v Crows

Based on Eddie's comments last night?

Think he was jumping on a train that left the station a few weeks ago. No secret Dustin is struggling with a bit of fat pad contusion which is just a fancy term for a bruised foot.

Not the most comfortable thing to have when you are required to pop on a pair of footy boots and run 10km each week but very manageable.
yeah eddie got confused and thought it was 'fat head contusion' which he knows a lot about...

I have pasted below ALL the tiger info from the article.

Victoria has officially been plunged into a seven-day lockdown after the state’s cluster grew again overnight.

MORE REPORTS EMERGE OVER SHIFTING OF TIGERS-CROWS MATCH

Adelaide and Richmond will meet with the AFL at 12.30pm (AEST) according to FIVEaa’s Stephen Rowe.

He reports there is a “real chance” the game could be held on Friday night, instead of Sunday.

However, the Crows are unaware of such move and don’t expect to be leaving early for Sydney.

Richmond officially begun their move from Punt Road on Thursday morning with the club flying out of Melbourne at 4pm.

DREAMTIME MATCH COULD BE PLAYED IN PERTH

Richmond and Essendon could meet in Round 12 at Optus Stadium, according to Nine.

Both teams will be out of Victoria after Thursday evening, which could pave the wave for a Dreamtime battle to be played outside of the usual MCG.

According to Nine, club sources at Richmond said the AFL had told the Tigers that they may stay in Perth after the scheduled Dreamtime game, with the club fixtured to play West Coast in Round 13.

Worsening matters, SEN host Gerard Whateley said the player was understood to have attended a Tier 1 exposure site, which mandates immediate testing and 14-day quarantine regardless of the result.

Speaking to Fox Sports News reporter Sarah Olle on Thursday morning, Richmond linchpin Neil Balme said he expected Richmond and Adelaide’s game to be played on Friday in Sydney rather than Sunday afternoon as initially scheduled.

Surprised Mansell is out. Rested then dropped.

He didn't play last week, so give him a game in the ressies. He has played 6 games straight was starting to look a bit flat.
Is the game still on tonight? I guess it is but with no crowds.

The Round 7 contest will be broadcast live on Kayo Sports and FOX FOOTY.
To follow live updates, stay tuned to @RichmondVFL on Twitter.

Richmond VFL Team v Frankston, May 27, 7.10pm, Skybus Stadium

EDIT: Just came across this now, looks like the game will be called off, was really looking forward to kicking back on the couch and watching the ressies play.

NSW demands Victorian visitors follow stay-at-home measures​

NSW has imposed strict new rules on Victorians crossing the border going north – as some Melburnians reportedly flee the lockdown.

"This means anyone arriving in NSW who has been in Victoria since 4pm todaymust remain at their home or place of residence in NSW for the seven-day duration of the Victorian measures,” NSW Health wrote in a statement."

 
Dear Seven,

As Victoria prepares to enter a seven-day lockdown from this evening, our Round 11 clash vs Adelaide has been relocated to NSW and will now be played at GIANTS Stadium from 2:10pm (AEST) Sunday, May 30.

This is largely due to the inability of the Crows to fly in and out of Melbourne given South Australia's hardline stance on the Victorian border.

The players, coaches and support staff are expecting to be on the road for the next few weeks with the exact details of our Round 12 Dreamtime clash still yet to be determined.

We will endeavour to update all of you as more information comes to hand. Ticketing details for our Round 11 clash are still being worked through with eligible NSW access members to shortly receive communication from the Club regarding ticketing access.

In the meantime, to our fellow Victorian Tiger Army, please stay safe and look after your yourself, friends, and families. Together, we can continue to do the right thing and can hopefully be reunited at the 'G in the coming weeks.

Kind regards,

Richmond Membership Team
