We may be Ports 2nd biggest rival, and they may huff and puff when they play us but from our perspective they're not high enough the food chain to be considered that highly.
Our main rivals are the big Victorian clubs by far.
Giving us plenty of practice so we could roll them in the biggest game between the clubs I guess. #VICBIASI've noticed there's only been three seasons (1998, 2011 and 2014) where the Tigers/Power haven't been fixtured to play each other in Adelaide during the home and away season.
Does anyone know whether or not there's a reason behind this, or if it's just sheer coincidence?

Wtf is this if I tried this on the scats board I would be having a holiday, why don’t you go and talk about your rivalries
There's a thread over on our board about this exact same topic regarding our rivalries with the Crows and Power, and the OP hasn't been banned for posting the thread about it on our board.
I’d say Richmond vs the two Perth teams in general. Well, except we’ve been losing the close games against Fremantle over the last 10 years
Richmond tend to have memorable and classic games against all the interstate teams aside from the Crows when you think about it.
Richmond vs Adelaide - one of the most irrelevant and forgettable fixtures on the footy calendar and I admit it's probably at the bottom of the pecking order for Tigers supporters. The fact Richmond have played in classics against Gold Coast and GWS yet haven't played in any classics against Adelaide says it really.
Richmond vs Brisbane - over the past three seasons games between these two sides have had a fair amount of heat in them, and this is a match up I seeing developing into a rivalry.
Richmond vs Fremantle - there's been quite a few memorable and classic matches between these two sides over the years, and the best thing about it is there's been classic games in both Melbourne and Perth.
Richmond vs Gold Coast - there's been great and memorable clashes between these two most notably the Karmichael Hunt after the siren game. Gold Coast always tend to bring their best footy to games against Richmond and this would be a new rivalry without doubt if not for Gold Coast's inability to ever quality for the finals.
Richmond vs GWS - these two sides have produced a few classic matches against one another in the 10 seasons GWS have been in the league, most notably the game in 2017 where Jeremy Cameron kicked the match winner in the dying moments to clinch victory in a classic nail biter between the two sides.
Richmond vs Port Adelaide - explained throughout this thread in a fair amount of detail outlining the fact these games always tend to be great spectacles with an electric atmosphere, and I have to admit Tigers/Power games in Adelaide aren't far behind Showdowns when it comes to games involving the Power and how great the contest, spectacle and atmosphere always tends to be.
Richmond vs Sydney - round 23 2014 and Sam Lloyd after the siren immediately spring to mind. Both games were all time home and away classics and the Tigers have always tended to produce good games against Sydney, going back prior to 2013 when Richmond were a perennial struggler while Sydney were a perennial finalist.
Richmond vs West Coast - much like Fremantle the games Richmond play against the Eagles have resulted in a fair few memorable and classic matches over the years, and there's been classic games in both Melbourne and Perth as well. Round 22 2019 is the first game which immediately springs to mind here, and had the result gone the other way, West Coast and Richmond swap ladder positions. Eagles finishing 3rd rather than 5th while Richmond finish 5th rather than 3rd and it's highly unlikely Richmond win the 2019 flag from 5th on the ladder.

one game doesn’t make a rivalry
A rivalry would need multiple big games say grand finals, etc Carlton, the scum, you guys the druggies, the rest are mehLike I said there's threads on both the Crows and Power boards where the majority of both the Crows and Power supporter bases tend to see a rivalry between their club and Richmond, hence why I came here to get a perspective from Richmond supporters.
I've given my opinion as well and said that personally I don't see a rivalry between the Tigers/Crows as well as explaining why I see the Tigers/Crows match up as one of the most irrelevant/least exciting fixtures on the footy calendar.
Hell, I've even explained why all the other interstate clubs have more rivalry with Richmond than the Crows do, even Gold Coast do given the fact there's been classic games between the Tigers/Suns and the Suns tend to always bring the heat whenever they play Richmond.
I'm not surprised at the fact this thread has given feedback from Tigers supporters they don't see any rivalry between the Tigers/Crows while at the same time, acknowledging there's rivalry between the Tigers/Power but it's just a long way down the overall pecking order which sees Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon a long way ahead of the rest when it comes to Richmond's biggest rivalries.

We are probably one of their requested home game fixture. Same with bloody north.

No current season stats available
As much as the Crows and Power both see us as their second, or third biggest rival, the reality is, from a Richmond perspective, that both clubs happen to find themselves a long way down the pecking order.
Adelaide's second biggest rival is actually the Bulldogs, given the fact Bulldogs supporters happen to actually give a sh*t about the Crows. My advice to Crows supporters trying to create a rivalry with Richmond, is to go and reciprocate with the Bulldogs, instead of trying and failing to create a Richmond vs Adelaide rivalry.
Port Adelaide from Kane Cornes, to Xavier Duursma, to the ferals from Alberton, treat every game against Richmond like it's their grand final, even more so than they do with Showdowns, while from our end, Port Adelaide is just another game on the fixture and another 4 points. The reality is, games from our end against Port Adelaide aren't any more meaningful than games against Gold Coast.
Good write up, but I would say we have absolutely played in a classic with Adelaide.Richmond tend to have memorable and classic games against all the interstate teams aside from the Crows when you think about it.
