According to the membership department, they haven't tallied the numbers up yet Ramps but apparently we are ahead of last year's numbers at the same time of year.

It will be hard to get the numbers up early with the NAB cup schedule, unless you want to go to Hicksville for a twilight game on Sunday  :banghead I doubt we will be going to any.

At least we start the season proper with a few at the G - which will be hanging out for by the way  :cheers

Certainly was a good day last year but it's a long hike for those who live on the other side of town.  :whistle

I suppose you cannot please everyone

Wont be attending because it's an hour drive and I have Doggie Training between 12-1.00pm - not really worth going

Here's one option 2JD:
take the train to Nunawading station; get a bus along Springvale Rd, getting off at Waverley Rd;walk the last 2kms up (and down) Waverley Rd.

Plough to reveal top 15 Tigers at Family Day
12:59:03 PM Fri 16 February, 2007
richmondfc.com.au

The announcement of the 15 players who definitely will be selected in the Richmond team for the NAB Cup opener against Geelong at Skilled Stadium on February 25, will be a major highlight of the Tigers’ Family Day at Jells Park this Sunday (February 18).

Coach Terry Wallace will announce the final standings in the players’ pre-season ‘NAB 15 Challenge’ at 12.15pm during the Club’s guernsey presentation.

Today’s intra-club practice match at Casey Fields in Cranbourne (starting at 4pm) is the final opportunity for players to press their claims for automatic selection in the Tigers’ team for that NAB Cup clash with the Cats.

Once this trial game is over, the Club’s coaching panel will allocate points and Richmond supporters who attend Sunday’s Family Day at Jells Park in Wheeler’s Hill, will have the top 15 pre-season performers revealed to them by Terry Wallace. The players, themselves, also will learn of their NAB Cup fate first-hand on the day.

If that’s not enough to whet the football appetite of Tiger fans, here’s what else is in store for you during the Club’s Family Day (proudly brought to you by PETstock) from 10.30am-3pm . . .

• Player autograph and photo booths

• PETstock reptile park

• PETstock’s Cutest Pet Competition

• Moto Masher

• AFG sausage sizzle

• Live music

• Children’s amusements and footy activities

• Membership and merchandise on-sale

• Food and drinks available to purchase
