Tigers, Eagles in fixture shake-up
- Thread starter TrialByVideo
- Start date
Um, hate to point this out but . . . they are running the show.
Seems stupid to make Richmond return to Sydney, the whole logic of bringing the game forward was because we were already in Perth.
This just defies logic.
Plus, why do we go back to Sydney? I mean, they could maybe fly us somewhere a little closer, I think Bali is closer than Sydney to Perth. I suppose they could fly us to Brisbane, it's about the only capital which is further, maybe Hobart.
This is not anti-Richmond, it is just stupid.

Yeah I'm not sure why we are going back to Sydney. I thought it was WA state covid rules but maybe not. I can only assume it's our choice to stay in Sydney.
If it is our choice, I guess everyone will have to shut up about how unfair it is.
Or Tom Morris has got it wrong, because it’s not like he’s never done that before.
SCG to host Queen’s Birthday clash, Tigers’ fixture wish granted
The SCG will host the Queen’s Birthday clash between Collingwood and Melbourne, while Richmond have also had a fixture change.
Eight clubs including the Tigers and Eagles will now have a bye in round 14, leaving the Tigers free to return to Melbourne in that period as they wished.
So if we can believe the Age we got what we wanted regarding moving the game forward one week.
Here's the likely explanation.
www.sen.com.au
With the Dreamtime game relocated to Perth and a clash with the Eagles in a fortnight, Prestia was asked whether he would want the bye in between those games moved in order to get a fortnight in Western Australia out of the way.
“For me it’s probably what we would be allowed to do in Perth. At the moment in Sydney we have a bit of freedom to still exercise on our day off and be able to train pretty normally and have meetings,” Prestia said.
“I don’t think it’s the same story if we go to Perth at the moment. I think it would be a pretty unfair preparation for us to stay in a hotel for a whole week over in Perth.
“I think most of the guys would be okay with it if we were able to have a bit of freedom and live life a little bit and not be stuck in the hotel for a week.
So we got the bye moved as we wanted and we prefer to stay in Sydney because of the increased freedom and training.

Just checked the fixture on the site that can’t be spoken about and we play Weagles next week at OS in R13 and again in R14. Hope we win both!
David, you of all posters should know it's nothing to do with RFC, Eagles or AFL....it's the state governments exercising their rights to treat the same risk with different restrictions. WA more stringent than NSw for dirty Victorians. ( SA dont even allow a team to stay overnight)
Seems to be our choice. A snippet from the Age!
“Richmond will return to Sydney after their Dreamtime match before travelling to Perth ahead of their match against the Eagles next Sunday,” said AFL general manager clubs and broadcasting Travis Auld.

Yeah I heard Dimma say it although he wasn't sure. If that WA premier doesn't allow training how did the Bummers do it for a week?Seems to be our choice. A snippet from the Age!

Because Essendon arrived in WA just before the government banned Victorians from entering the state. If the Tigers stayed in WA this week, they would only be allowed out of their hotel rooms for training and that's it.
If they are corrupt fkwits, blame them for what they do and stop making stuff up.
Should be easy if they are corrupt fkwits right?
