Title: Jeep - major sponsor [merged]

Some Pies supporter on BF reckons it's JEEP in black on the yellow sash.

On the Jeep Australia site the Cherokee add is in yellow and black writing out of coincidence.

That would be awesome if true.

Jeep fits with the jungle image of the Tiger.

Remember the Valiants and Chargers were as popular as Holdens and Fords in the 70s.

HEY CHARGER!

RICHMOND has secured a major sponsor for the front of its jumper just a week before its Round 1 clash with Carlton at the MCG - and hopes to raise another $2 million.

The Tigers have signed Jeep, owned by US car giant Chrysler, to a three-year deal as the club's co-major partner.

But even bigger bucks are expected to roll into Punt Rd tonight at a gala dinner to launch the $6 million Fighting Tiger Fund campaign.

Richmond chief executive Brendan Gale said the Jeep deal completed a suite of off-field signings, including a naming rights contract for the club's new $20 million training and administration centre, now known as the ME Bank Centre.

"It's a very competitive market place but we are confident in what we've got to offer as a football club," Gale said.

Asked what he expected to raise at tonight's invitation-only Fighting Tiger event, Gale said: "Anything could happen.

"We've got a group of committed Tigers coming together and it's going to be a defining moment in our history. It's going to be an amazing night."

Club legends Kevin Bartlett, Royce Hart and Francis Bourke will take part in proceedings inside the Punt Rd redevelopment.

The fund seeks to clear the club's $4.5 million debt and increase its football department spending.

The Tigers signed car insurance company Bingle as their other major sponsor in January, but Gale conceded the club was yet to replace the lost poker machine revenue from the blue-chip Royal Oak Hotel in the heart of Richmond.

The venue, owned by pokies king Bruce Mathieson, was transferred to Carlton last year. The venue contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to club coffers.

Going by newstext.com.au which archives every online News Ltd story, the paper version of the Herald-Sun has the word "tonight" added on the end:

"RICHMOND has secured a major sponsor for the front of its jumper just a week before its Round 1 clash with Carlton at the MCG - and hopes to raise another $2 million tonight."

LOL at the MCG carpark filled with Tiger Jeeps. That would stuff out all the MCC/Dees supporters in their Range Rovers and Volvos.

Bring on the new KooGa merch  :thumbsup

Although technically the HUNs article is wrong. RFC website say the deal is for at least 2 years, while the HUN says 3 years

In real terms this means the deal is for 2 years with an option of a 3rd  ;D

lets hope this is wrong figure and that GGs figure is correct, if its only 700k a year then theres a serious problem at the club IMHO. It should be double that which puts it where GG has the amount as being. In relative terms what does a Jeep Grand Cherokee cost $60k maybe $70k or say a Jeep Wrangler $30k maybe 40k. In effect Jeep and Chrysler just have to sell 10 to 12 Grand Cherokees a year to Richmond supporters to get there money back on 700k a year. On a risk reward its a great investment for them even at $1.5 million a year all they have to sell say 15 Grand Cherokees and afew Wranglers and they'll come out in front. When there marketing to a club which has 600,000-800,000 supporters Australia wide, then the odds are pretty good for them. Im therefore hoping that the $700k figure is wrong and that the $1.5 million a year is the correct number as that would be more to real value for both parties. And thats before any media exposure and marketing done for them by the club, corporate boxes and other sponsorship benefits.

I didn't think the article hinted one way or another about how much it is worth.

As I mentioned the HUN article is wrong in saying it is a 3 year deal. The RFC website clearly says it's a 2 year deal.

So look at it this way if you want to believe it's a $2mil deal.

If it is $2mil for 2 years then it's a bloody good deal indeed  :rollin :rollin

And please dont' lose sight of the fact we were in the bottom 3 on the ladder last year - whether we like it or not we cannot "command" the big $$$ yet. We need to start winning games consistently... Build it and they will come  ;D

I actually applaud the CLub in not hinting one way or another how much these deals are worth - we don't need to know it's more fun guessing don't ya reckon  :rollin

Jeep in the jungle

Thu 17 Mar, 2011


Richmond is pleased to announce that it has secured a major partnership with automotive brand Jeep, which will appear on the front of the Richmond guernsey for at least the next two years.

Jeep will join Richmond as a co-major Partner of the Tigers, together with Australia’s leading online car insurance provider Bingle.

“Partnering with Jeep is a fantastic step forward for the Richmond Football Club, which adds to the excitement among our members and fans as we head into a new season,” CEO Brendon Gale said.

“We are thrilled and proud to be associated with such a strong and exciting brand in Jeep.  There is a great fit between our organisations, the exciting journey we are on and our ambitious plans for the future.”

“Both parties have worked hard to ensure this alignment occurred, and we look forward to a long and fruitful partnership.”

Celebrating it’s 70th anniversary this year, the iconic Jeep brand is arguably the most recognisable in the automotive landscape. Surging forward with award-winning recent product development and aggressive new marketing strategies, the legendary brand is set for big things this year, with the Richmond partnership being a sensational element of that progress.

“There are few clubs with the rich history of Richmond, and even fewer automotive brands with the history of Jeep” said Sam Tabart, General Manager of Marketing for parent company Chrysler Australia.

“Our approach is one of passion and strength, with the mantra ‘Don’t Hold Back!’ So what better fit for Jeep than Richmond Football Club who’s positive, professional approach and membership dedication is something we are extremely excited to be a part of.”

The announcement comes on the back of a productive pre-season off the field for Richmond, which has formed partnerships with ME Bank (training and administration base), Bingle (back of jumper), Clive Peeters (shorts), Signet (sleeve) and KooGa (apparel) since the end of the 2010 season.

AFL and Adelaide and west coast has Toyota
Geelong has Ford
Carlsum and the lions has Hyundai ( and A-league)
New-South-Wales-Waratahs & Nth Melbourne have Mazda
Melbourne Storm has Suzuki.

What of Mitsubishi or Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge or Kia or Holden?

Jeep Ready To Roar With Richmond Tigers
The Auto Channel
SYDNEY – March 17, 2011:


(http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2011/03/17/523711.1.jpg)

In a landmark statement for the iconic brand, Jeep has just signed on for a major partnership with the Richmond Tigers Football Club.

With the SUV brand’s logo emblazoned on the front of the legendary club’s guernsey for at least the next two years, Jeep has joined Richmond as a co-major Partner of the Tigers.

Celebrating its 70th anniversary this year, Jeep is surging forward with award-winning recent product development and aggressive new marketing strategies, with the Richmond partnership being a sensational element of that progress.

“There are few clubs with the rich history of Richmond, and even fewer automotive brands with the history of Jeep” said Sam Tabart, General Manger of Marketing for parent company Chrysler Australia.

“Our approach is one of passion and strength with the mantra ‘Don’t Hold Back!’, so what better fit for Jeep than Richmond Football Club, whose positive, professional approach and membership dedication is something we are extremely excited to be a part of.”

The announcement comes on the back of a productive pre-season off the field for Richmond, which has also formed new partnerships with ME Bank, Clive Peeters, Signet, KooGa and second co-major Partner, Bingle car insurance.

“Partnering with Jeep is a fantastic step forward for the Richmond Football Club, which adds to the excitement among our members and fans as we head into a new season,” CEO Brendon Gale said.

“We are thrilled and proud to be associated with such a strong and exciting brand in Jeep. There is a great fit between our organisations, the exciting journey we are on and our ambitious plans for the future.”

It stacks up against most clubs but doesnt stack up against the likes of Collingwood,Essendon and Carlton probably Hawthorn as well. The interstate clubs are in a sphere of there own in terms of sponsorship. IMHO I reckon $850k for a front of jumper sponsorship at RFC is one of the great value sponsorship deals ever made by a company.

Those teams all have more because 2 probably 3  of the four can pretty well guarantee a sponsor coverage throughout September while we are on the sidelines. The other is a club with 16 premieships that is still hanging on to the perception of their greatness as a club.  Until w can demonstrate we are back we are nothing but dreaming about that level of sponsorship.

Also it's a work laptop so I didn't pay a cent. Linux is great for some applications like web servers, virtualisation, etc, but it's not user friendly enough for the client end to ever make a big impact.


As for the sponsorship, I'm pretty confident that the figure is 2.4-2.5 mil and the jounos are getting this wrong by dividing by 3 instead of 2 as the 3rd year is just an option.

Flagman you ar enot comparing apples with apples (and yes we've spoken about this a few times)

You cannot compare us to Collingwood = unrealistic

Ditto with Hawthorn to a degree - they sold 4 homes games a year to Tassie to ge the $$$

Essendon's deal with Samsung was done when they were a reasonable brand

Carlton get the $$$ because of their favourable FTA coverage

We dont have what these clubs have. Untill we do we cannot expect to compete at that level.

Win games, get a better draw and more FTA tc and will command the bigger $$$$..

If we're going to compare then lets compare against those who we are on par with = Melb, North = our combined co-major deals I believe are better than those clubs so we are on the right track

And BTW look at St Kilda - we've got 5 newbies for 2011 while retaining the majority of our 2010 lot. St Kilda have had no many drop off it's not funny

And BTW as I said earlier don't beleive everything you read in the paper.
The Age is speculatingting (like we are) what the Jeep deal is worth....

and don't just look this as what it's worth in 2011 look at the long term view/implications too  ;) :thumbsup

It seems to me that a lot of Richmond supporters are just happy to go along as we are not prepared to push for better results from our administration. $850k for front of jumper for Richmond is an absolute disgrace. Others will disagree and that is fair enough and I respect everyones opinion but selling the front of jumper for such a limited amount really devalues us as a club. In effect we sold our major sponsorship for 10 Jeep Cherokees and 4 or 5 Wranglers. I think its a poor result.

Flagman you are assuming the $850k a year is the correct number - I don't believe it is  & I will repeat don't believe everything you read in the papers.

I ask you this if our COMBINED jumper sponsors were to total say $1.8-$2.0 mil for this season would you think that is a good deal? Answers has to be ABSOLUTELY and comapred to a number of other clubs we are on par or ahead

2/ At the moment based on where we are at we can only compare ourselves to Melb and say North and what they can generate. Yes we should be aiming to get what the C'woods, Hawthorns & Carltons of this comp are getting but until we start winning games, getting more games on FTA TV then we can get what the market is prepared too pay.

Yeah my info was slightly off, looks like the total value of the jumper (front & back) is worth around 5-6mil for the next 3 years, which is still not bad. But I've also heard it is worth more than that  :-\

Yeah my opinion is based on the assumption of the number being $800k or $850k. No I wouldnt think that $1.8 million for the 2 sponsorships combined would be good a result but thats my opinion only. I repeat the day our supporters accept being compared to the rabble that is Norf and Melbourne is the day our club is in real trouble. How is it possible to compare ourselves; with our supporter base and with our membership base and with our facilities in our location be comparable to North or Melbourne - who are the Gypsies of Australian Football.

Im sorry guys but no way will I ever compare my club to that rabble, not today, not tomorrow not in a million years.
As a member of the club I will continue to demand that our club seeks to improve its position on all fronts especially on this issue of sponsorship and finances as well as that of the playing fields.

Won't make an impact because it's not trying to take over the world.  You mightn't have paid for the OS but whoever bought the laptop certainly did.  You talk user-friendly? My various laptops have run Linux desktops for years and it is no harder to run or configure than the iterations of Windows we have had to suffer - Vista, now there's an operating system of note.  My work is in building and implementing enterprise (global) wide Windows software and I have nowhere near the issues on a day to day basis with Linux that I do with client's Windows environments.  Not a single virus infection without AV protection?  Only if you are savvy advanced Windows user, not your average Joe with little computer nous.  Linux desktops have come a long way in recent times and the best thing is that they give you free choice to use what you want, how you want to.  Uncle Bill and Sideshow Steve don't like it when they don't control things and I would rather decide who controls me, not pay for the privilege of letting them do it.

And there in you've hit the nail on the head "seeks to improve" they have done that with this deal  :thumbsup You want a CGU type deal we are not in a position to "demand" that YET

It was actually one of the things spoken about last night how much extra sponsorship $$$ will come once we start playng finals consistently ...it was staggering but until we are there we can only demand so much ....

Sponsors want bang for their buck and that means exposure on FTA TV, Friday night footy, a good draw... currently and more importantly realistically we dont/can't offer that until we start being successful... It's called the harsh reality of this comp

I think you've mistaken my realistic view as being me being contect with where we sit at present... believe I am not but it is where we are at. I expect in 2 years we will in a position of having companies throwing themselves at us (like the Pies) rather than us trying to sell ourselves

They negotiated for months with jeep and TCL at the very least so its not like they took the first deal that came at them.  They clearly negotiated hard with those companies and jeep had the best offer. You can't complain when all that happens. You just have to be realistic that what you get is the best market value.

Deal is for 2 years with an option for a 3rd. If in 2 years we are in the 8, for Jeep to take up that optional 3rd year it would cost them considerably more than what they are paying now (and they would probably look to take up a 4th and 5th year at that point). As WP said, when we are getting more FTA games and September action, the big bucks will come  ;)

Ramps/flagman,

Put aside your richmond bias for a minute and consider if you were making a decision to sponsor a football team. Would you honestly pay the same money to Richmond that successful clubs can get, considering you will not get the same exposure, nor be associated with success in the near future?

You can slag off at clubs like north all you want and say you dont want to be compared them, but over the last 20 years their sponsors would have got much more value for their dollar than ours.

It is RFC that has been the basket case of the league for the last 30 years and until we put the score on the board we will be considered a second rate option for sponsorship dollars

Pig scrotum. Whilst we can't offer the same exposure as the big clubs and interstaters playing finals we offer far more exposure than the Norfs of this world can no matter how many finals they make. RFC sells papers and generates web hits, no matter the story. We pull larger crowds and bigger TV audiences. No-one gives a toss about Norf and the minnows, hence their bottom rung sponsorships. We'd be comfortably sitting mid-range in terms of sponsorship. You are right though, that is obviously well below our potential.

More on field success will lead to more sponsorship money and more members which in theory if put back into the footy dept. should lead to more on field success and so on and the juggernaut is rolling. Like Mike Lowrey, when we come, we'll come with the thunder.

If we pull bigger TV audiences than norf why do we hardly get any friday night games, the prime tv slot?
It is free to air TV exposure and especially finals that give the sponsors value for their dollars, not written newspaper articles, unless they are done as pictorials in a way to highlight the sponsors logos - I havent seen too many of those.

I spent three years travelling this country around 15 years ago and in that time would have seen much more of norf on the telly than us, even though i tried to seek out watching richmond

Website hit counts is only a recent factor and I'm not too sure how much influence that would have on sponsorship dollars even now, but over the last 2 years - stuff all

Yeah. norfs exposure has dropped of in the last few years as their performance has, but over the course they have played in finals and even won a premiership - that is what sponsors want. Our basket case of a club's only saving grace has been our large supporter base, without which our over all performances would have been lucky to attract Spellbound as sponsors.

All good and the fact we have played well on a Friday night in prime time gave it more exposure.

And so far the two games we've played in prime time this year have been see-saw affairs and rated well (718k viewers on Friday night).

AFL doesn't make the call the FTA broadcasters do. The draw gets done (who plays who only) and then the FTA TV networks sit down and pick which games they want and what time slot, with FOX getting the scraps

Certainly Ch7 would be very happy with us after Friday night - so get it right (= close to the Pies) in round 4 and more Firday nights are looking a show

Speaking at Sunday’s President’s function, before the Sydney game, Kett endorsed the club’s ambitious plans, saying the challenges faced by the Tigers were similar to those his company recently confronted in the United States.

Chrysler is the parent company of Jeep, which became Richmond’s co-major partner this year.

Jeep and Richmond Don't Hold Back

(http://i879.photobucket.com/albums/ab353/esp_eraser/tigersjeepdontholdback.jpg)


Chrysler Jeep Australia will be Richmond's joint major partner until at least 2014, it was announced today.

The Jeep brand appeared on the Richmond guernsey for the first time in 2011. It was the first year of what was originally a two-year deal.

Based on the mutual success of the partnership in year one, both parties chose to extend and strengthen the relationship.

Click here to check out how we Don't Hold Back

"We would like to acknowledge everyone at Jeep  and the way they have embraced the partnership with Richmond," said the Tigers' CEO Brendon Gale.

"It has been an outstanding first year, and we are thrilled to be sharing the journey with Jeep as we both strive to become leaders in our respective industries."

"To be able to renegotiate and extend our partnership after one year, shows strong commitment and confidence in the outcomes we can drive for each other."

Managing Director of Chrysler Jeep Australia, Clyde Campbell, said the similar core values that underpinned both organisations, played a key role in strengthening the partnership.

"Jeep and Richmond Football Club are a fantastic match," Campbell said.

"Both organisations have exciting, united teams, full of new talent, that are poised for success.

"We're delighted to extend our partnership with Richmond to a three-year term.  In that time, we know we're going to see both organisations succeed."

Jeep continues the ride with Richmond
By richmondfc.com.au
Exclusive to richmondfc.com.au
11:46am AEST Saturday, August 31, 2013

Richmond is proud to announce the Club’s joint-major sponsor, Jeep, has renewed for four more years.

The new agreement will take the partnership through to the end of 2017, and is the biggest sponsorship deal in Richmond’s history.

Jeep will continue to feature on the front of Richmond’s match-day guernsey, and will extend their presence by featuring on the front of the guernsey for Richmond’s new standalone VFL side from 2014, as well as support the Club’s ‘Richmond in Business’ program.

“We’re incredibly proud as a football club to have established a great partnership with Jeep and with our renewed agreement, it will span at least seven years,” said Richmond CEO Brendon Gale.

How much $$$$$ are we talking here?

Should be one of the most lucrative sponsorships in the AFL by now.

Because I have 3 large dogs

Seriously for what we needed to carry 3 dogs the only Jeep that came near the right size but stil not big enough was the Cherokee or Grand Cherokee and for their price they weren't worth it

Question I have seen that Collingwood members and Essendon members can get discounts on new cars from Holden and KIA respectively.
Is there something in place for RFC members and Jeep?
Apologies in advance in case I am living under a rock on this one. :thumbsup

Yes and they also sponsored St George / Illawarra in the NRL for the last couple of season but didn't renew

Actually watching the JLT series there are a number of clubs who seem to be down on sponsors, GC & Melb have space for sale on their jumpers and a couple have no shorts sponsors

So I supposed based on that we can say we're not doing too bad  ;D  :outtahere

If it upsets you so much Angus, why don't you foot the bill that it would cost to remove the signage and then pay for the Replacement signage when a newbie is signed

While I get the angst, people whack them if they waste money. I would think the cost to get it all removed would not come cheap.. priorities

Interesting stuff.  So in effect what you are saying is that if you are a prospective sponsor, you now know that you sign a year deal, get all the signs up and then pull the pin and you get 3 years for the price of 1 because of your spectacularly flawed logic

I thought ME just didn't renew the deal. If you sign a 3 year deal I would have thought you'd have to honour the deal from a legal point of view. Unless you file for bankruptcy...

ok so you sign a 3 year deal and get 2 for free...I mean you logic is ridiculously simplistic and sends a message that you can bend us over because we cant afford a few guys to rip down signage...like get real for once

As I mentioned last year, it is a tough market for sports sponsorship at the moment.

Clearly this is lost on the sooks, though.

We loose nothing while it it is still there.

Nice twist of things there so you can give out whack for no other reason than you seem to like whacking the
Club no matter what they do

What I am saying is

ME Bank had a 5 year deal. That deal ended in late 2015. As of right now there is no replacement. The signage clearly
your remains.

While understand that this disgusts people in the overall scheme of things it isnt a big deal. Is it perfect? No. But overall is it sky falling stuff? No again

The cost to remove it all and replace it with nothing costs would be alot.

I can think of better things for them to spend money on than removing the signage of a sponsor who gave us great service and that we still have a link to via another sponsor.

Get a new ground naming sponsor and it gets removed for half the cost of removing it now and replacing it in say 3 months time.

So forgive me if I am not going to whack them for securing their co-major sponsor which is fantastic news and removing some signage.

Great points.

GC lost Fiat last November and haven't been able to replace them.

Demons have been trying to get a back of the jumper sponsor since before Xmas. ST Kilda,  WCE to name 2 clubs have no short sponsor as they head into the season

We lock in our co-major and get a new short sponsor and people sook.

Reckon there is a few clubs that would want to be in our shoes right about now

what has all that got to do with a discussion about having signage up for a company that isnt paying for it? 
and FWIW, WCE bury us with the amount of sponsors they have on board...be it major, or otherwise.

I would say this, however. I am of the opinion that we are one of the most marketable clubs in the league.

Aside from our larger-than-most supporter base, we are constantly in the news (sporting and otherwise). We have an incredibly propitiously located home base, great colours and mascot ("The Tigers") and a ripping theme song.

The current sponsorship deals appear to me as par for the course. I know we're still outdone by teams like Hawthorn (although this is mostly due to their onfield success).

first off someone produced the WCE as some kind of excuse for our predicament being in terms of sponsorship, when in fact they have sponsors coming out of their proverbials and i wasnt comparing poo.
As for your suggestion on the competition, yeah but then Perth is one of those NY sized cities  that resides smack bang in the middle of corporate Austrailia, not like us that have our home right in the middle of nowhereland, 3 minutes from the Melbourne CBD, right outside the G.
Its quite hilarious how with every post by you and others, it verifies to alot of us here with grave concerns on how the club is run by the board, how they continue to remain in the drivers seatl.

It was WP who you accuse of producing some kind of excuse for our predicament with sponsorship which he did not do. He simply produced examples of how difficult it is to gain sponsors in the current environment.

I guess  i felt that a club based in a city that is so isolated (in an era of globalisation) that if they offered Dusty 3.5 million a year over five years that it would have to be easier to get the sponsors dollars.

man WTF are you on about. Who accused who of what?  Like get your head out of it man...the discaussion was about Punt Rd having signage up and the club making a big fat 0 out of it. And WP started offering up petty comparisons with the ALMIGHTY Suns, AInts and then threw in no shorts sponsor for the Eagles.  The fact of the matter is we have signs up at Punt Rd for a sponsor who aint paying for it. The Eagles dont have a sponsor on their shorts because they arent about to offer freebies like we have. Now move on

btw just so you dont lose sight of it, you are aware that the Tigers are in the bottom quarter in the comp in terms of sponsorship dollars yes?  And this is before any announcement of a continuation by Jeep.

Just in case you needed a reality check when talking the board and how its "supposedly" kicking goals.

Hmm that old chestnut

A 2 year old article that was proven to inaccurate

Because the article failed to mention that clubs record "spomsorship" dollars differently.

Based solely on revenues from sponsorships not clouded by fundraising etc the RFC is not in the bottom qtr of fhe comp, far from it.

But stick to believing a 2 year old article not what the AFL annual reports say

Why was it not in the contract that the cost of removing sponsor's signs at the end of the deal would be at the sponsor's expense.

because that would discourage sponsorship. Its standard practice for clubs to pay for signage. it's normally taken into account in the sposorship deal

From Prez Peggy O'Neal:

Channel 7 reported we are about to re-sign Jeep as a major partner. Is that correct?

Jeep has been a wonderful partner of Richmond for a long period of time and our commercial team is always in close contact with our sponsors. We would certainly like to extend what has been a very positive relationship and will share any news with members and supporters as soon as we are in a position to do so.

We have made some important commercial announcements already this year with Bang and Olufsen joining the Club as our Audio-Vision Partner and the Plenary Group becoming our Next Generation Academy Partner.

Beyond this we have had Progressclaim.com elevate their partnership to become joint major partners of the VFL team.

We expect to have more good news to share in the near future.

The Tigers’ financial position has been strengthened by the re-signing of joint major sponsor Jeep Australia for three more years.

The extension makes Jeep the Tigers’ longest serving major sponsor in the club’s history.

“We are excited to be tackling that future with our staunchest commercial ally at our side for three more exciting years,” Richmond chief executive Brendon Gale said.

Confirmed on the RFC website:

Richmond Football Club is thrilled to announce it has re-signed with Jeep Australia as joint major sponsor for three more years.

This extension takes a sporting alliance which began in 2011 through to the end of 2020, making Jeep the Tigers’ longest serving joint major sponsor in the club’s proud 132-year history.

Richmond CEO Brendon Gale welcomed Jeep’s further commitment to the Tigers, saying “we are thrilled to extend our partnership with Jeep beyond 2017, in what is a significant and record major partnership for the Richmond Football Club”.

“Both Richmond and Jeep have a rich history, and both Richmond and Jeep have bold aspirations for the future. We are excited to be tackling that future with our staunchest commercial ally at our side for three more exciting years.”

Jeep Australia President and CEO Steve Zanlunghi said the decision to extend the alliance was made easier by the synergies between the Tiger’s footballing ethos and Jeep’s brand values.

“We are excited to extend our partnership with the Richmond Football Club,” said Mr Zanlunghi. “Richmond plays a passionate, tough and exciting brand of football. These are qualities that Richmond share with the Jeep brand which makes this sponsorship such a perfect fit. We are very proud to be a part of the Tiger Army for the next three years.”

To further strengthen the ongoing partnership, Jeep Australia will provide two Jeep vehicles to the Korin Gomadji Institute (KGI). The KGI runs education and training programs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth, an area of the community to which Jeep is honoured to lend support.

Mr Gale thanked Jeep for providing two vehicles for the Korin Gomadji Institute to continue its positive work with the Indigenous community.

“Richmond is extremely proud of the Indigenous programs we run through the KGI, and Jeep has recognised this during our long journey together. The two Jeeps will be of direct benefit to the KGI and will help to extend its outstanding work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth,” Brendon Gale said.

I can't find a link but towards the end of Ch 7's telecast last night they played during the ad break the new Jeep ad with Dusty, Rance and Houli.

They had descriptions for the vehicle matching the footy team: precision, endurance, power, toughness, etc. The ad ended with something like "a well-oiled machine".

Who drives, wins

Car brands add up premiership points as Jeep takes top honours in 2019 AFL season


Neil Dowling
GoAuto
10 October 2019


WHEN Richmond steamrolled Greater Western Sydney (GWS) to take the AFL premiership for 2019, it was a victory for Jeep as well as a great result for Kia.

As the overall sponsor for the competition, Toyota also came out a winner, while Geelong’s late exit and its position at the top of the ladder in the home-and-away season kept Ford front and centre of attention.

The grand final capped a season that put Jeep, which has been struggling with sales down 24 per cent this year, in the spotlight.

Indeed, that ‘one day in September’ was a triumph for Jeep’s marketing outfit as its 18 on-field billboards wearing the brand logo suddenly appeared in every newspaper and online news and sport sites across the country – and even out of the country.

At the end of the home-and-away season this is how the final auto sponsorship ladder looked:

1 Geelong Cats – Ford

2 Brisbane Lions – Hyundai

3 Richmond Tigers – Jeep

4 Collingwood – Holden

5 West Coast – WA Toyota

6 GWS Giants – Kia

7 Western Bulldogs – Mercedes-Benz Vans

8 Essendon Bombers – no car sponsor

9 Hawthorn Hawks – Nissan

10 Port Adelaide Power – no car sponsor

11 Adelaide Crows – Toyota

12 North Melbourne Kangaroos – Mazda

13 Fremantle Dockers – no car sponsor

14 St Kilda Saints – no car sponsor

15 Sydney Swans – no car sponsor

16 Carlton Blues – Hyundai

17 Melbourne Demons – Jaguar

18 Gold Coast Suns – no car sponsor

I think Jeep may finish up next year as a major sponsor at Tigerland. Sales have been falling and I think whatever Richmond supporter wanted a Jeep has now got one. I also think our sponsorship needs to be at least on a par with Collingwood and Essendon and maybe Jeep wont want to go to that level.

Our sponsorship should be worth $2.5 to $3.0 million a year with what we can offer to a company advertising wise.

Along time ago when they first came on board, yeah

But now...

It is alot more than that

Think you and everyone else forgets with nearly every single sponsorship deal in the comp there are bonuses written in for things like premierships....

Here we go again.... every few years you raise this Ramps.....

We have 2 majors: front of the jumper and back of the jumper - both are significant deals. Significant....

Our sponsorship levels are at record levels...we are on a very good space here, a very good space....

dont' get seduced by rumoured amounts the media go on with as they don't have a clue

All deals are rightly confidential. The media speculate on numbers. Some club's feed the media the barest of bones

But the club has made it clear that our sponsorship deals are at record levels. And I don't think we should doubt it

In other highlights of the 2020 sponsorship home-and-away season, Jeep’s 11-year association with the Richmond Tigers is up for grabs in 2021 but on current form it would appear unlikely Jeep would drop the club.

The Tigers have delivered two premierships to Jeep (2019 and 2017), topped the ladder in 2018, came third in 2019 and third this year with every chance of them winning the premiership again.

Who drives what*:

1. MG – Port Adelaide Power
2. Hyundai – Brisbane Lions
3. Jeep – Richmond Tigers
4. Ford – Geelong Cats
5. WA Toyota – West Coast
6. No car sponsor – St Kilda Saints
7. Mercedes-Benz Vans – Western Bulldogs
8. No car sponsor – Collingwood
9. Jaguar – Melbourne Demons
10. Kia – GWS Giants
11. Hyundai – Carlton Blues
12. No car sponsor – Fremantle Dockers
13. No car sponsor – Essendon Bombers
14. No car sponsor – Gold Coast Suns
15. Nissan – Hawthorn Hawks
16. Volkswagen – Sydney Swans
17. Mazda – North Melbourne Kangaroos
18. Toyota – Adelaide Crows

Jeep wins AFL 2020

Jeep comes on top in AFL sponsorships but Ford has a great run of exposure in the finals

By John Mellor
premium.goauto.com.au
30th October 2020 


Jeep, sponsor of the Richmond Tigers, has won the AFL sponsorship season 2020 on the back of the Tigers’ emphatic victory over the Geelong Cats in the Grand Final.

But both Jeep and Geelong Cats sponsor Ford got huge additional exposure during the finals series because both teams took the ‘long way around’ to get to the Grand Final and in doing so played two additional matches each in front of national audiences.

This was an extremely valuable bonus for their auto sponsors.

As reported in GoAutoNews Premium, the Port Adelaide Power secured a sponsorship win for MG by topping the home-and-away premiership table in its first year as an AFL sponsor.

But, even though it won the minor premiership, by winning the first round of the finals, Port Power (MG) got to sit out the next round and was then knocked out of the competition having played only two final rounds.

The same happened to the Brisbane Lions (Hyundai) which also played only two games in the finals.

But the Tigers (Jeep) and the Cats (Ford), by losing those first games in the qualifying final, had to fight for the right to stay in the competition and having succeeded in doing that they knocked the Power and the Lions out to earn the right to play each other in the Grand Final.

So the Power and the Lions got to play in only two finals and the Tigers (Jeep) and the Cats (Ford) played four finals matches including the Grand Final with all the attendant additional exposure.

The icing on the cake was the size of the Grand Final TV audience this year which was the biggest since 2016 attracting 3.8 million viewers nationally.

Capital city audiences for Jeep and Ford in the grand final were:

1.583 million viewers in Melbourne
413,000 in Sydney
383,000 in Brisbane
335,000 in Perth
265,000 in Adelaide.

We must be raking in the sponsorship dollars compared to any other team considering our success.

I’d be surprised to hear if we aren’t at least $1 million more than any one in the sponsorship ladder.
