Punt Road roof for sale
7:13 PM Wed 27 February, 2008
RICHMOND is giving companies the chance to own part of the club’s history as well as some of the best advertising space available in Melbourne.
The Tigers are selling advertising space for the roof of the Jack Dyer Stand at Punt Road Oval.
The club has been based at Punt Rd since 1885 and while games have not been played there since 1964, the ground remains synonymous with both Richmond the club and the suburb.
The stand was built in 1913 and was named the Jack Dyer stand in 1996 as a tribute to the most famous Tiger of all.
2008 is a great year to be on board with the Tigers. Plenty is happening around the club as it celebrates 100 years in the VFL/AFL this year.
Ninety-seven thousand cars drive past the ground every day and about 240,000 people pass through the adjoining Richmond train station each week, making Punt Rd oval one of the most visible landmarks in Melbourne.
The roof opportunity comes packaged with an outdoor billboard at the entrance to Punt Road Oval.
Both the roof and Punt Road billboard are lit for 24-hour visibility.
For more details, you can phone the club on (03) 9429 5333 or email info@richmondfc.com.au

they should put the Greek Flag on it because Richmond is now officially recognised by me as a Greek Club.

I noticed the For Sale sign painted on the roof. About time we got rid of the Motorola signage.

the greek flag shall be raised on top of Punt Rd. This has been written and it is in the prophecies. Until the Greek flag flies from the Punt Rd roof top there can be NO FINALS ACTION.
On the other hand, the painting of the roof in the Galanolefka of the Greek Flag, will result in pride and Glory. When the roof is painted the club will win a flag.
It is up to the club now.

What's got as many pros as cons?
A greek brothel.

Think they should forget about selling sponsorship and repaint the Tiger back on the roof. It was a real landmark and could be seen from every train.
