Richmond will face Carlton tonight in a Match Simulation, as preparations for the 2025 AFLW season ramp up.
It’s the Tigers’ first chance to test themselves against a rival opposition ahead of the new campaign, after a successful intraclub match last week.
The first bounce is scheduled for 5pm at IKON Park, with attendance free for fans. Gate 6 at IKON Park opens from 4.30pm, with public parking available on Royal Parade. Food and beverages will be available to purchase on the pavilion concourse.
