The Tigers exhibition game against the indigenous All-Stars is up in the air as cyclone Yasi bears down on Alice Springs.
The All-Stars this morning cancelled their flight from Sydney to central Australia, while the Tigers are awaiting a directive from the AFL before leaving from Melbourne tomorrow.
Lightning and 100km/h winds are forecast for Friday night's match.
"I think the AFL are going to make a decision by lunchtime today," Richmond coach Damien Hardwick said.
Richmond had planned to play all of it's younger players and rest anyone with any real experience, ex Melbourne player Brad Miller was going to take the field as was draftees Reece Conca, Jake Batchelor, Dean Macdonald and Tom Derick.
There are suggestions the game could be moved for a second time to Sydney.
