Following an extensive review, Richmond and the AFL have decided to move the two AFLW home games at the Swinburne Centre to Ikon Park, due to capacity limitations.
The Club’s priority has always been for as many members and supporters to have the opportunity to watch Richmond’s inaugural AFLW team compete, and enjoy their match day experience.
With this in mind, the Club will now play its Round 3 match v North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos and Round 7 game v Brisbane Lions at Ikon Park.
Richmond CEO, Brendon Gale said the fans’ enjoyment and safety during games at Punt Road underpinned the Club’s decision making.
The Club is committed to continuing to work with the AFL, government and council, to address current crowd capacity issues, and will endeavour to host AFLW games at the Swinburne Centre in future seasons.
