Preseason match: Richmond vs Collingwood @ Ikon Park - Feb 26
« on: December 10, 2024, 05:52:36 PM »
Richmond's official 2025 pre-season game has been confirmed, with the Tigers to play Collingwood as part of the AAMI Community Series.

The AFL today confirmed that Richmond and Collingwood will clash at Ikon Park on Wednesday, February 26 from 7.10pm.

All AAMI Community Series matches will be broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. Tickets will be available in February.

AAMI Community Series games will be played in four 20-minute quarters plus time on, as is the case in the premiership season. However, there will be no interchange cap, with clubs able to name a squad of 30 players, including eight on the interchange and four emergencies. There can be only four players on the interchange bench at any time.

Clubs will also have the opportunity to participate in an optional match simulation training session at a date determined by the Clubs prior to the AAMI Community Series Matches.

Clubs will communicate their confirmed match simulation training sessions with all sessions to be managed by each club and broadcast arrangements to be confirmed at a later date.
