Richmond and Jeep could potentially end one of the stranger contracts in modern times
Originally signed up because the Aus Head of Jeep was a mad Tiger, he left and the new guy knew sweet fu** all about AFL and wanted to pull it, but sort of kept at it because we had established a partnership and then we won 2017, didn't do a great deal of cross over work until about 3 weeks ago with a Jeep anniversary.
As far as I know no one knows when it was extended to, there is a lot of guess work - so potentially watch this space, or don't...
Yes it looks like a "lap of honour" around recent Club digital promotion re Jeep. Could there be some movement of an existing sponsor to a more prominent asset?

our jumper is going to look like a dogs breakfest next year with the blue latitude logo replacing jeep who won't be renewing on the sash

Just on the this
TheGas80, is basing their tweet on what is appearing on Big Footy.
I read the entire Big Footy. It is an interesting read ;)... I don't know anything and we need to see what the Club announces but will be sad if true.
All sponsorship deals are tied to the AFL industry's financial year being 1 November to 31 October each year.
So we will know sooner rather than later

If latitude pays a big price then they can have it. Its just about the number imho.

Kiwi tiger is pretty credible and a good guy

Yep, agree Kiwi Tiger is a terrific guy and credible
So I do lean towards to believing it. But will still cool my jets until it's confirmed by the Club
And if it ends up being true, dreading the Latitude royal blue and white logo appearing on our yellow sash :-\ big bucks or not
-
One part of the rumour confirmed.
After eleven years, the Richmond and Jeep partnership will finish at the end of October.

Pretty sure I read they were changing the colour of the logo to black on a white background for the Jumper
-
They dont need the square border. Just do the logo and lettering in black on the yellow sash. Itll look good.

Ghastly!

Latitude won't agree to that.
Club had to change how their logo was presented on the shorts after 5 or six rounds, this season.
It was originally white on our black home shorts (which looked great) and blue on the white away shorts, they didn't like it so it got changed...
Pretty sure I read they were changing the colour of the logo to black on a white background for the Jumper
Hope this is true. Not sold on it but it would be better than they Royal blue and white thing
-
The place where that is should be reserved for the club badge.
-
Im sure our club prefers the millions it gets than on sticking our badge on the jumper.

From KiwiTiger on BF:
"Who says they [Latitude] are on the front?"
"Sometimes the school kids at the back of the bus move to the front as they get older."

"just read a post that says Nib will be on the front of the rfc guernsey next year. even worse than the blue latitude logo lol"

Don’t mind it at all. I think it looks 100 times better than the latitude logo.

That's Phil Mrakov's twitter account.... :shh
-
Richmond Membership promotion shows Jeep replaced by NIB, who have new colour scheme. And most likely will be replaced on the back of the jumper.

Confirmed nib takes over the front of the jumper for both AFL & AFLW sides as well as getting involved with the KGI

Lets hope they paid a fair price for the front of the AFL jumper.
-
Let's hope those are just iron on nib logos and the real ones will look neater and fit within the yellow sash and not cut over the black. Looks messy

Hopefully NIB will be in the green lettering and not inside a square logo.

Nope, what you see is what we get

Pretty messy logo. Looks ordinary but they paid up so theyre entitled to doing it how they want.

-
The lime green background looks horrible against the yellow sash - why couldn't they have just gone with a black NIB against the yellow background?
-
I’m guessing they’re paying the money so they get to decide the colour scheme of the logo on the guernsey. If lime green is their brand colour then it’s a no brainer for them to leave it like that. For them it’s about brand recognition, they wouldn’t give two stuffs about how the colours contrast.
-
TAC, Motorola, idiot Smith and JEEP all worked with the club to find something that looked good.
NIB are taking the pee. No one is taking that logo seriously and hence likely to more harm than good to their brand
-
Like I said. They’ve paid the money so they are entitled to show their logo however they see fit. Your last point is just silly. There is no way no how that having their logo on front of the guernsey of the one the most recognised sporting clubs is the country is doing anything other than benefitting them. I would think that they’re well aware of their branding and how to best get recognised and draw customers.
If the club was so concerned of how it looked, they should put it in the contract that the colour scheme has to be approved by them first.
-
What is the contract of NIB compared to Jeep’s?

:huh3
Seeing no one knew the exact value of the Jeep deal, despite the media and people speculating about it I would think it is fair to say no one will know the value of this one.
But seeing they are front of the jumper now of both AFL & AFLW I would think to to reasonably to "guess" it is a better deal overall...
What they haven't disclosed is the length of this new deal

I saw the pics posted above on Twitter, the person who tweeted the saw then on bigfooty. Post on bigfooty claims they are from the Puma website but there is no link to thwt
Couple of points
When I saw them on Twitter I searched everywhere on line for them and they are not appearing anywhere
Going by the said pics, they appear to be mock-ups not actuals
While I acknowledge that they will look close to the final product I would want to see the actual final product to get better idea of what it looks like or how bad it looks ;D
At the end of the day whether we like it or not both of these companies are paying big bucks for their respective logos to appear on our jumper
NIB are clearly launching a new logo (re-branding) so they are not going to change how their logo appears on our guernsey. That's their new logo they want to promote it
To suggest that previous sponsors worked with the Club to make their logo look good (e.g. Jeep, Motorola, idiot Smith) I think that's a stretch. The previous 3 had one thing in common and that was their logos were either black or white and could be flipped if needed or in idiot Smith's case in the beginning yellow and black. So they were easy to feed into the sash.

I searched and searched and couldn't find 'em

And BTW
Great to see National Storage still on back of the jumper (neck line)
And I wonder who's going to be our shorts sponsor now🤔
-
National Storage one looks great. Need more companies with a yellow and black theme lol
-
The back of the home jumper looks terrible with the blue and white clashing with the yellow and black. The front looks better than expected though.

We've had that blue and white combo before on the back of the jumper
Remember AFG?

They can’t be serious with that surely. It’s more like a nib guernsey sponsored by the northern knights lol
-
Seriously, I don't know why NIB didn't just have this logo put on the sash
It would look great

Notice the NIB logo on our women's jumper has changed. IMHO a much better looking logo than the men's.

Its a lot neater look.
-
Darker green a lot more complimentary to the yellow sash
-
Much better
Not sure why Club's have to the Telstra logo on their jumpers this year
But then again I still don't understand why the AFLW has a stand alone apparel deal which forces all Clubs to wear the poor quality atrocious Cotton On :-\ Clubs should be allowed to have their own apparel deals for their AFLW teams. Which for us would mean Puma
