I agree HarryH it looks good
My Credit Card and Bank manager will be very happy with only 3 intersate trips ;D. About time - we had 5 trips this year. 3 in the space of 4 weeks
Have a question though - why don't we ever get a home game against the Kanagaroos? Don't remember the last time we had a home game against 'em
-
Round 3 is Rivalry round (LMAOO).
Us against the Bulldogs ? WTF ??
Since when have we become bitter rivals. Maybe rivals for the spoon of late :lol

I believe it's an intra-club match lol with Wallace, Brown, Gilbee?, P.Bowden?, Rodan? ;)
Could end up being the largest crowd to a Tiges-Dogs game.

I agree with Harry and WP it's a good draw playing wise. It's a kind draw with only 3 interstate trips all in the cool of the nightand none back to back. If we had a half-decent team we could get off to a flyer in the first 4 rounds.
The main cons are all the Sunday games (6 in a row to begin with :o) and only 4 home games in the first 10 rounds. Not good finanically if the season is basically already over for us by mid-year.

Funny how both Port Adelaide and Brisbane request Saturday night games against us and always get 'em. I know this sounds weird - but we draw big numbers interstate - the interstate teams always request us. I've been told if the interstate teams always ask for the Pies , then the Tigers :thumbsup
-
Just want to add that anyone thinking of travelling interstate - check out Qantas they have terrific low fares out already - earlier you book the chepaer it is :thumbsup
$429 return to Perth - Bargain ;D

Correct WP. All fixed now. :thumbsup

Hmm gotta come down to Melbourne for my little brother's wedding on 29 April - wonder if I can squeeze the Port game in as well.
-
With that draw I think it's possible to win 10-12 games this year.
-
Kind of draw you'd like to have if you were a flag contender. As it stands, it won't mean a thing to us, we'll be down the bottom for sure.
-

I'm gonna go to one interstate game next year - haven't been for a couple of years - be good to go in a group next time. If anyone is interested in going maybe we could go en masse or at least organise to sit together!

Tigers welcome family friendly fixture for ‘05
12:42:37 PM
Thu 30 September, 2004
richmon dfc.com.au
The Richmond Football Club has welcomed the Tigers’ 2005 fixture released today by the AFL.
“It’s fantastic news for families”, said Richmond’s CEO, Steven Wright.
“With 18 games at the MCG and Telstra Dome, the majority on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, it really is a family friendly draw. Richmond has a large family supporter base and the draw maximises the opportunities for families and children to attend.”
“It’s also a reasonable draw from a pure football perspective as we play interstate only three times (compared to five times in 2003 and 2004),” Wright said. “We also play only three of this year’s finalists twice.”
All-up, Richmond will play 9 games (7 home) at the MCG next season, 9 (4 home) at Telstra Dome, 1 at Skilled Stadium, 1 at the Gabba, 1 at AAMI Stadium and 1 at Subiaco.
“While it is disappointing that we don’t have the season-opening ‘Blockbuster’ match against Collingwood, it’s pleasing that we now have home games at the MCG against our other traditional Victorian rivals Essendon, Carlton and St Kilda,” Wright said.
“Overall, it’s great news for our supporters. With our membership campaign starting in early October, this fixture, along with the recent appointment of senior coach, Terry Wallace, will be a great incentive to join the mighty Tigers as we begin afresh in 2005.”

Well froars if you come up to the Gabba maybe we could actually get to met each other.
-
Will be at the Gabba, Julz - that's the best interstater going i reckon.
Be nice to share some of that sun you're always bragging about lol
-
I'm gonna have to quit my job with all these Sunday games :help
-
I agree with the club's view - it's a great fixture for families. I know my sister was contemplating not getting her kids memberships if we had heaps of night games next year.
I much prefer footy in the day, Saturday's first and foremost..but Sunday's aren't that bad. Our Saturday night's next year are basically our interstate matches which suits me fine.
Just a pity we cop sides that finished 1, 3 & 4 twice. I think I'd have preferred the Lions twice...particularly if we played them in the first three rounds when hafl their 2004 side will be missing :lol
19 chances to look at the new kids next year :thumbsup

Saints, Tigers in twilight clash
5:18:15 PM Mon 20 December, 2004
Paul Gough
Sportal
The Anzac Eve blockbuster between St Kilda and Richmond at Telstra Dome will be played as a twilight game in 2005.
The match has been scheduled for 5.10pm (AEST) on a Sunday afternoon in round five with the only other game that day being played at the usual early starting time of 1.10pm at the Gabba between the Brisbane Lions and West Coast.
The traditional Essendon-Collingwood Anzac Day clash will be played the following day on the Monday afternoon starting at 2.10pm at the MCG.
The Saints-Tigers clash will be the only twilight game staged in Melbourne in 2005 after the AFL released the match times for next season.

Not a fan of 5pm starts as it's a in-between time. It's awkward to fit in other things before or after twilight games. In any case I thought IIRC it was flop the last time the AFL tried it ???.

I know this game's attracted a big crowd the last couple of years when it's been played on Easter Monday (always a Saints home game I note :banghead) but I don't think it is a BLOCKBUSTER :-\
