Should Richmond play Week 2 at Adelaide Oval

[TigerTrain23]

Would Richmond be smart to host next week's Semi Final at the Adelaide Oval as practice for the following Friday night?

Yes we should

 

[heypenny]

It may also be 'smart' for St Kilda or the Bulldogs to play at Adelaide Oval as 'practice'. There's no guarantees Richmond will go through

 

[Acinath]

This is a poor attitude and does not give enough respect to the Bulldogs/Saints.

 

[Chumly]

So this is confirmed?

 

[Chumly]

Title suggests it is confirmed

Please just lock this thread.
Put the bottle down OP jesus...

Metricon according to Hardwick

 

[parano1a]

Dimma just said he has been told by the AFL it will be at Metricon

What happened to being able to choose?

I fking hate these pathetic misleading titles

 

[PAFC_1870]

So this is confirmed?

No. Just a stupid click bait post.

Wait, you guys are allowed to choose?

 

[javaguice]

Yeah do it bro... You guys should get to choose. Like always

 

[MattyJayJ]

Tom Browne reporting Metricon so that’s that. He hasn’t been wrong yet

 

[MadMundy]

Richmond will make easy work of the Dogs or Saints, so yeah sure why not.

 

[kickazz]

This is a poor attitude and does not give enough respect to the Bulldogs/Saints.

Surely they'd prefer to play there too as practice should they win?

 

[Atomboy]

What happened to being able to choose?

Isn’t it what they would have chosen ?

 

[Acinath]

Surely they'd prefer to play there too as practice should they win?

It's the 'practice for the following Friday night' that is disrespectful

 

[TrimmyTraggot]

Wait, you guys are allowed to choose?

Yeah I wish we finished 3rd or above over the past decade and got that privilege. Instead of the AFL always choosing the away teams home ground for our home finals

Funny how this talk of neutral venues is coming up also.

 

[projectv]

Agreed. After what the Tigers dished out tonight, either Saints or the Bullldogs would like a practice game in Adelaide before facing Port.

About as much respect as Richmond fans gave Brisbane, so at least they're consistent.

If they had the choice it wouldn't be the worst idea. Given theres no difference between losing in a PF or losing in the SF, you may as well give yourself the best shot to win the PF which is the one that matters to get you to the GF and we know that's at AO and the more difficult game. If you lose you lose, but winning means the travel and quarantine is already done for the next week. AO is just as nuetral as playing the Saints/Dogs in QLD so there's nothing to lose there but there is a potential gain.

If you use common sense, its got nothing to do with the opposition as to why there is some merit and logic to the idea.

Won a final at the Gabba last year.

Grand final is also at the Gabba.

But sure go play your home game in Adelaide. Very smart.

One loss and Richmond fans melt so easily.
