Richmond’s 2024 AFL fixture has been confirmed, with fans set to benefit from two hat-tricks of MCG clashes (Round 1-3 and 7-9) in the opening parts of the season.
The Tigers will also come home with five straight games in Melbourne to end the campaign, in a fixture that includes home marquee Anzac Day Eve and Dreamtime clashes.
After heading to the Gold Coast in the new-look Opening Round, Richmond will meet Carlton at the MCG in the traditional Thursday night slot on March 14, followed by home Sunday twilight games against Port Adelaide and Sydney.
Both clashes will be held at the ‘G, as will all of Richmond’s home matches in 2024 except for the Round 22 game against St Kilda at Marvel Stadium.
Richmond will play the Saints twice this year, with the first clash to be at Norwood Oval as part of Gather Round.
The other five teams Richmond double-up against in 2024 are Gold Coast (Round 1 and 24), Carlton (2 and 16), Port Adelaide (3 and 19), Fremantle (8 and 17) and Hawthorn (14 and 23).
Richmond travels west to face West Coast in Round 5 before consecutive home matches at the MCG against Melbourne, Fremantle, and Western Bulldogs.
