RICHMOND president Gary March is baffled by the AFL's decision to make the Tigers play a "home" game against St Kilda at the opposition's home ground Telstra Dome for the second straight season.

Richmond has consistently called for more matches at its traditional home ground, the MCG, but three of its 11 home games have been fixtured at Telstra Dome this season, including last night's clash with the Saints.

"I've got to say … it doesn't really feel like a home game," March told a guests at a club function ahead of last night's match.

"It's one of the anomalies of the AFL competition that for two years in succession the Richmond Football Club have been drawn to play St Kilda Football Club at Telstra Dome, their home ground. "I find it baffling … that we are continually drawn to play a home game against an opposition at their home ground."
