There'll be 1 more 80k game (Dreamtime) and possibly 2 more if the Bombers and Blues aren't poo

Nope.  I thought the exact same thing RD3 when I read that stat in the media article yesterday so I checked every season back to '67.  It's correct.  But what was interesting was seeing how much bigger we were than any other club, Collingwood included, until post 1982.

If we're contending in the next 5-10 years we'll be just behind Collingwood. Don't think we could get bigger, but I reckon we'd be comfortably the biggest right now if we had Collingwoods record over the last 30 years.

Lots of fun heaps of fun

Nought Melbourne fans are hard to spot

Eureka game was more big for them than for us.
We have round 1 and Dreamtime. They can play GWS in the WGAF Cup.

Once we finally become a consistant finals team and hopefuly emulate Geelong in their success then just watch us overtake the Pies too.
People can't resist the Tiger or the yellow & black colours or our theme song. The kids will be demanding a Richmond jumper.

....... and watch all those softie Whorethorn supporters that used to support the Tigers but had even softer cock parents that didnt make them stick fat, just watch 'em all come jumping back on board the Tiger train.

Easy they've had games against Geelong (MCG), C'wood (MCG), Sydney (MCG GF replay) all big drawing games = total crowd numbers go up. The Geelong & Sydney games were home games for them with 60k+ crowds so that inflates their home crowd numbers

Even if we play well have and have good attendances, they will eventually take a nose dive once we play at Cazzaly stadium as from memory capacity is less than 20k?? and the other poor turnout will be the GWS home game.

If we are finals bound this year? Then next year we will have a good shot at taking first place for attendances, no cairns game, would most likely play GC at metricon, Not have to play at Geelong and would hope to have a home game against GWS for once. Leaving a drop off in attendances being against the crap clubs inc the crap away teams.
Then again getting ahead of myself, but that is quite possible  :shh

I agree WP.
And all other games should be on at the same time too.
The footy records should be 20c. when you could look up the A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. J. K. R. S. on the score board to see what the other games scores were. Then you can check your record to see what team corresponds to the letter on the scoreboard.
And if you were really into it, like I was, I used to fill in the scores from the other games also.

A Richmond game is a must go for me regardless.
I hate Wastelands but as a fan I am compelled to go and see the boys.
In the first half I sat second level Footscray end behind the goals and there were more tiger fans there. In the second half I moved to the Southern End second level and it was virtually 90% Tigers there. Dogs have struggled for crowds all year playing a big 4 Melbourne side helped boost their paltry supporter base who attend games.
At our home game at Wastelands earlier in the year we got around 45K.
Crowd tonight pretty much sums up the apathy of the Dogs, their fans and for us our hatred of having to go there in a game we are expected to win against a cellar dweller minnow club.

Had the game been scheduled at 3:15pm given that by then ppl may have has confidence in the weather and families may have had their late breaks or lunch we may have had another 5 to 10K rock up. Still given the only option to see a game in Melbourne this weekend was either St Kilda v Port or our game the crowd still fell well short of the 52K predicted during the week.

No doubt it's still a good crowd Tucky and I'm guessing the biggest of the round. It would have just been nice to be nearer the 50k prediction so we could have told the AFL that all our home games should be at the 'G.

Had the game been scheduled at 3:15pm given that by then ppl may have has confidence in the weather and families may have had their late breaks or lunch we may have had another 5 to 10K rock up. Still given the only option to see a game in Melbourne this weekend was either St Kilda v Port or our game the crowd still fell well short of the 52K predicted during the week.

40K though at the G v Freo is still very good. :thumbsup
No doubt it's still a good crowd Tucky and I'm guessing the biggest of the round. It would have just been nice to be nearer the 50k prediction so we could have told the AFL that all our home games should be at the 'G.

What was the crowd on Friday night?
Still 40k on a cold day was a good crowd against a low drawing interstate team that clogs the footy.
Given we got 43k last year on a Saturday arvo against Freo on a wet and cold day last year suggests to me the Sunday 1:10 PM time slot is one that the RFC faithful probably don't like.
I'll see the Tigers wherever and however but give me Sunday 3:15pm or twilight, Friday night or Saturday footy rather than the time slot we played at today.

Their home game against us and Punt road end looked empty. 60k+ and 70% of spectators were yellow & Black and they're on top of the ladder! What a bloody disgrace! Shouldn't be allowed to call the MCG their home ground! Bunch of imposters!

I'd imagine that the Blues would be up there had they won a few more games this year so it just goes to show you that the big 4 are still the same clubs as the 70s.
I would've thought the AFL would love the original Big 4 Melbourne clubs, and one club from each of SA, WA, NSW and Qld each year in the finals to bankroll those poorer clubs to keep making up the numbers for broadcast rights  :thumbsup

Agreed. Its our spiritual end. Punt Road end is synonymous with Richmond. We need to up the marketing side of it on our memberships and the like.

Dees should be pushed to the members wing. Dons to the sharps room. Blues to the car park with a box of coathangers.

the AFL should have kicked out some clubs years ago and thats why we have an unwieldly competition with an uneven fixture. If you asked them today if they could start the AFL again how they would do it and it would go something like this

1. Richmond
2. Collingwood
3. Carlton
4. Essendon
5. Geelong
6. Hawthorn
7. Sydney
8. Western Sydney Giants
9. Brisbane Lions
10. Gold Coast
11. Adelaide
12. Port Adelaide
13. West Coast Eagles
14. Fremantle

The player pool would be much better quality and the quality of footy higher still.

We've finished the season with a record home crowd average of 51,174 which beats the previous record set way back in 1980 (50,864). We're second in terms of both home and total crowds behind Collingwood.

With two rounds to go we should break the one million mark (currently on 969,997). It'll be only the second time we've reached one million during the H/A season only (Record is 1,023,821 set in 1998). Of course, we were the first club to crack one million in a season when finals crowds are included back in 1972.

To celebrate, the Club will select a lucky Tigers’ supporter to be its one millionth fan, as they walk through gates of the MCG to attend the game.

The randomly selected fan will win a prize pack featuring 2 x tickets to an AFL function at Richmond’s first final valued at $460pp, 2 x Richmond reserved seat memberships for 2014, and 2 x corporate dining packages for Day 2 of the Boxing Day Test Match at the MCG.

SUNDAY'S elimination final between Richmond and Carlton at the MCG is the biggest week one crowd at a League final since 1972, when a top five was introduced.

A monster crowd of 94,690 crammed into the ground to watch Richmond's first final in 12 years against its bitter rival.

It eclipses the 91,900 who came to the 1972 qualifying final between Richmond and Collingwood at the MCG and the 90,370 who came to the 2011 elimination final between Carlton and Essendon.

It is also the biggest crowd to attend an AFL match in 2013.

The MCG capacity was close to 120,000 in 1972 with many more standing room tickets available.  Due to seating changes and reduced standing room that is now 100,000.
I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being a record that is hard to beat. Certainly from my vantage point I could not see a single seat that was empty in the ground and I have rarely seen that in many a year. The only thing I can think is if there were a few standing room tickets that weren't sold.
The atmosphere was certainly electric.

Players salute Tiger Army

Monday, September 16, 2013


... the true force and impact of the Tiger Army, which made up the majority of the 94,690 fans at the MCG to witness the contest, was not lost to the players.

The likes of Trent Cotchin, Brett Deledio, Brandon Ellis, Alex Rance and Bachar Houli described the feeling of emerging from the rooms for the start of the game, and the pulsating opening moments, in a special Roar Vision video this week.

Lids - “The hair on my arms were standing on end, and I couldn’t help but say to Jack (Riewoldt), ‘how good is this’!”
