Richmond will face Hawthorn in Round 2 on a Sunday afternoon at the ‘G which will be excitingly followed by a home AFLW twilight fixture against St Kilda at the Swinburne Centre. Sydney will then await the AFL Tigers in Round 3 with an Easter Saturday clash starting at 1.45pm.

The Tigers will be back under Friday night lights in Round 4 to face Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval in a rematch of this year’s thrilling preliminary final.

Richmond will then play another 2020 finals opponent St Kilda at Marvel Stadium in an exciting Thursday night slot.

The marquee ANZAC Eve fixture against Melbourne will return in 2021, with the Tigers slated as the away team for the Round 6 Saturday night clash with the Demons.

The exact date and times for games from Round 7 to 23 will be confirmed by the AFL at a later date, with the Grand Final rematch against Geelong set to take place at the MCG in Round 8.

Dreamtime at the 'G will also return to Melbourne with the Bombers hosting Richmond in Round 12.

Richmond will meet Greater Western Sydney at Marvel Stadium for the first-ever time in Round 9, while the Club will also play North Melbourne at the MCG (Round 21) in a nine-year home and away first.

The Tigers will travel to Perth twice in seven weeks for matchups against West Coast (Round 14) and Fremantle (Round 20).

Richmond has been fixtured 14 games at the MCG, as well as a further two at Marvel Stadium.

Death, Taxes, and Oppos melting about our Fixture.

 

[Foley#41]

14 games at the G, spread through the season, no more than 3 in a row lol.

 

[yellowandblack21]

So Hawks, Giants, Lions, Cats and Saints twice? Could be worse, could be better. Would be nice if the Giants continue to suck

[tiger_tough]

Pretty tough double up opponents. Should see us finish up settled nicely in 3rd position....

 

[HTT]

A few things I noticed
R2 will be our first game with a red ball since the 2019 GF
Port in Adelaide for H&A for the 7th straight year
Away games are nearly identical to the original 2020 fixture, just swapped Adelaide out for Port.

[Foley#41]

Strange playing Pies just the once and late in the season. AFL don’t rate them I guess.

I actually don't mind our fixture, the only hard part is the travelling but its nicely spaced and the bigger games are in the first half of the season meaning a loss doesn't hurt as much.(Port, WCE & Bris).

 

[Ma Xiao Long]

Why are we playing GWS at Marvel?

 

[Coach_Required]

Why are we playing GWS at Marvel?

They moved the North game to the G for the first time in years so they had to pick some one. LOL

 

[dusty1234!]

Why are we playing GWS at Marvel?

exactly

 

[Serenity_Now]

Can those Mickey Mouse home games we have to play at Marvel piss off

 

[Downtown06]

We'll win every game except Port over their cause they'll use it as the revenge game while We'll just laugh walking off
