Forget about the skin - I think I've made my thoughts on it very clear :rollin

But about the sticker............. is already off the car. Was on the car for 2 months but the yellow faded to near white so I've taken it off.  :banghead :banghead

Every year............ :'( :-\ :whistle :help

Actually I found last year's sticker to be quite good - the best I've had so far.  It didn't peel off and was just starting to lose it's colour - and my car is out in the Qld weather everyday.

Now the Dogs are doing the t-towel thing. The "Teddy Towel" in their colours with "stick it up 'em" on it.  :-\

Maybe we can have wet towels fights at 20 paces.

I hear they will also have a roar woof meter and a tiger bulldog growling on the scoreboard after goal  :nope

And they are charging their supporters $10 for the towel - granted $2 goes to the Whitten foundation but $10 :gobdrop

This could become the shortest lasting idea in history if the Swannies do job on us like last year. Let's hope the Tigers play more direct footy and show some guts and determination. Give us a reason to make us want to go off and twirl these damn teatowels.

Show us your Skin at the ‘G’ on Saturday
April 5, 2007
richmondfc.com.au

Attention all 2007 Richmond members, who are planning to be at our first home game of the season, against Sydney at the MCG this Saturday . . .

It’s time to unwrap the ‘Tiger Skin’, which you received as part of the Club’s ’07 membership package, and take it with you to the ‘G’ for the big Round 2 clash with the Swans.

The Tiger Skin is the embodiment of the famous Yellow and Black spirit.

Let’s turn the G into a roaring wave of Tiger Skins and help lift the boys over the line against the Sydneysiders.

Tigers strip towel
« Reply #26 on: April 06, 2007, 12:34:48 PM »
I have noticed that people don't know what to do with the tigers strips towel. We took it to the NAB game at Mildura as we knew this was the only time we would get to use it. But my little granddaugter has found a use for it. She has taken it home as she used it to wrap her little doll in it. So its hers now. But she love the Tigers all we have to do is say, Tigers and she starts to dance. Hows that for brain washing. Her mother goes for the Bombers and she actually knows our song and not her own team.

You're meant to whirl it around above your head after each goal and as the side comes onto the 'G. After the game too if we win.
