As much as it would be great for Richmond to play Gold Coast in Melbourne, it does compromise the draw for teams fighting for finals places (although we did have to relocate our own home game against Adelaide). GWS v Hawthorn last week… GWS would surely have won if it was played at Giants Stadium. Freo v Carlton likely to be in Melbourne as well, which is not fair.

The argument will be that Richmond were away for 103 days in hubs & won the flag in 2020 so suck it up princesses.
However a second season of chaos & disruption will see the clubs tiring of this covid circus.
It will be having an impact well beyond football abilities on integrity of the competition.

Anyone can get AZ now. Players and staff can be vaccinated and reduce their risk of getting it and passing it on. Some clarity on whether fully vaccinated people are exempt from restrictions (2022 season with AZ shots) will determine whether this is the last season upended by COVID.

Wonder how the ticketing will work?
Still 25% capacity - meaning approx 13,000
Based on last weekend - home at the 'G and only 14,000 - this is notionally an away game at Docklands so everything leans toward a very small crowd.
Might pay for them to let RFC members into the game as if it was a "home" game
Not sure I'd bother paying ordinary ticket prices - but if's included in our membership I'd probably go.

This is what I'm waiting for.
The emails from the club would hopefully come tomorrow morning

This should be a replacement game for the home game we lost against the CROWS

the rule is 50% capacity to a max of 25,000. so the capacity tomorrow night is 25,000.

as for ticketing, I'll be very disappointed if I have to pay anything. the RFC should use this game to compensate Richmond members for losing the Adelaide home game. I’m sure they can work out a deal with the Suns so they make some money out of it on top.

Another option is to just open up the stadium to everyone for $10 per seat on a first in best dressed basis… just to make sure there are bums on seats.
