The Gold Coast Suns are confirmed for another AFL clash against Richmond at Cairns’ Cazaly’s Stadium next year, this time in a twilight game.

The AFL recently released its 2012 fixture, with the second Suns-Tigers Cairns clash set for Saturday, July 14.

The 4.40pm start will mean the game will be played in cooler conditions, with the second half to be less effected by the unpredictable and swirling Cazaly’s wind, which generally dies down around sunset.

Last July, the “sold out” sign went up on the Cazaly’s gate as 11,000 tickets were snapped up months in advance, but next year, an additional 2500 tickets will be made available.

The Suns will play 10 home games at their home ground, Metricon Stadium, in 2012, but both their Q Clashes against Brisbane will be at the Gabba - on Saturday, April 21 and Saturday, July 21.
