AIG who sponsored Man Utd at the time were interested but backed out due to the GFC. We then had to wait another 4 months before Dick Smith and Luxbet jumped on board. I'm just wondering whether the current sponsors of Man U would be interested in sponsoring us now the downturn at least in Australia is over?

I asked about our new sponsors today but all the answer was from the Club - "It'll be done very shorty. It's not far away" :-\

"JB Hi Fi" is one name Ive heard also heard "The Reject Shop" as a possibility.

.....also heard "The Reject Shop" as a possibility.
Oh no, can just imagine all the opposition smart-a's having fun with this one! :-[
-
Just putting here as well what Benny Gale said. The Club has put forward a couple of proposals and we've got decisions pending. He said hopefully we're not too far away from making an announcement.
-
Tiger Airways :thumbsup
-
Hopefully it is a long-sponsorship deal that is near the $2 million per year deal.
:pray
-
If Benny Gale is still spruiking the Club and what it offers publicly then it sounds like we are a long way off from signing a new major sponsor :-\.
Tiger Airways :thumbsup
AFL wouldn't allow it. It conflicts domestically with the Qantas who sponsor the AFL.
-
It's a bit of a worry about the sponsorship.
This is the big white elephant in the room. The pressure only gets worse from here Benny Gale, better get a wriggle on.

lat time we signed a major sponsor was hot on the heels of the GFC...we are in significantly stronger economic times, i suspect we have a raft of options for our consideration...how white elephant fits beggars belief, leave the commerce to the experts chum :lol

Brisbane under Vossy would be a better fit for the Reject Shop :D.
JB HiFi have the right colours as does the Comm Bank. Not sure if they see spending $1-2m on sport sponsorship to boost their brand and profile though given both are well known already. Mind you Dick Smith did. You would think a growing company in Oz seeking to boost its national or strong foreign company breaking into Australian market would be more interested.

i must be the only person in oz who has never had an issue with tiger , flown with them 8 times never one hiccup
they are owned by Singapore airlines, which is so far ahead of qantas with quality and service its not funny

Make that 2 X. I use them a lot for my personal travel (work generally flies Virgin or Qantas) and have not had one bad experience with them that was within their control. I fly very extensively with work and have had flights cancelled by Jetstar, Qantas, Compass (remember them?), had luggage lost by Qantas, been made to wait terminally long for my luggage on many many Virgin flights but Tiger have never let me down significantly. I think they copped a bad wrap on that TV show where it seemed to be almost exclusively filmed in the Tiger terminal but I have never had any of those hassles with them. I'm interested to know why Jack thinks they are a "terrible business"?
-
Tiger Airways :thumbsup

From an investment point of view, I have to agree with Jack, all airlines are terrible businesses with extremely high cost of operation for minimum investment return. I can't see them having the ability to throw lots of cash our way long term even if they are profitable. JB HiFi on the other hand, a very well run business who would benefit substantially by sponsoring a high profile club like ours and linking store discounts into club memberships would be the first thing they should do for a good ROI.
-
i was joking around a bit with the Irony if we did ever get with them hence there names... not being serious of-course :P

Hopefully the sponsor friendly opening month to next season can push this along faster.

Will explain.
they have the highest turnover of staff its laughable
Staff are forced to sign contracts, that state the following, any training that the company has performed will have to be repaid within a three year period if you resign or leave.
I have known staff that have been forced to pay over $3000
The shift work and hours of pay are laughable.
Staff only get paid for "time in the sky"
If a plane break downs or they cant fly, you dont get paid.
therefore they have staff sitting around airports around australia due to storms, mechnical failures, strikes etc not getting paid.
-
And Smokey, I fly at least twice a week and use Virgin and Qantas.
If I choose my flights wisely, I have no delays ( at least out of melbourne) Take the 6.00am first flight, always on time !

Personally I only fly QANTAS wherever possible. The only exception to this in Aust is flying home from Launceston then I usually come home via Jetstar because QANTAS only do limited flights to "Lonnie" these days. But hey Jetstar is bascially QANTAS anyway ;D
And can I say that after my most recent interstate trip which was for a funeral I cannot speak highly enough of the fanstastic service and understandig we got from QANTAS - best airline in the world IMHO. They were sensational.... Ditto Jestar on the homeward leg :clapping

Repayment of training is standard in many businesses surely Jack? Its called a ROSO (Return Of Service Obligation) in the military but its prevalent in a lot of businesses nowadays. And I can't conceive that in this country in an industry as heavily union influenced as the aviation industry with its regulated salary awards/conditions that the conditions you describe above can possibly exist. Do you know this for a fact or as a third party indication? Sounds quite implausible to me but I don't know the facts so I'm open to be shown the reality (if it is the reality).
-

For sure Jack. From my perspective, much of my flying is into Sydney and Melbourne early morning and we have frequent significant delays due to weather (2 weeks ago Saturday into Sydney was the latest) and when those first flights in are delayed it stuffs up the timetable for the rest of the day. And Tiger Airways are most definitely no worse than Qantas or Virgin or Jetstar in that regard, yet they seem to get whacked publicly for it. Not fair or justified IMHO.
-
Luckily never had a real bad experience flying. The worst thing was gaining a whole heap of Ansett fly-by points while OS yet back home Ansett went under :P. Have flown by Qantas to Sydney and back a few times and flew Singapore Airlines to Singapore and Frankfurt with no probs. S.A. were very good. A Lufthansa domestic in Germany from Frankfurt to Berlin was delayed an hour but the pilot somehow made up 30 mins in the air and thumping the wheels on the tarmac. The pilot was speaking German over the PA so I was totally oblivious to what was going on lol.

Since running my own business i'm out of the loop on these matters, so to speak, but I'd never heard of such a thing as a ROSO, smokey. Im not surprised that it occurs in the the Military though, but I'm not sure how prevalant it would be in the wider community.
The airline industry isn't as unionised as you may think. Virgin is largely (wholly?) a non union workforce, being deliberately set up that way from the start. I don't know about Tiger but if they have ROSOs then I doubt they would be. Last year i flew back into Darwin to be greeted by an electrical storm, which meant the Baggage handlers would not go out into the open so we had nearly a hour delay waiting to collect our luggage. I was told by a staff member that Quantas/Jetstar staff would not go out when there was lightning about but Tiger and Virgin staff had to. This indicates to me that Tiger is also a non unionised workforce.

not so true there Al. Wife has worked at Virgin for the last 7 years and it is a Union workforce but a very weak one.
Jack is absolutely spot on about Tiger. Their staff are forced to work 15 hour shifts putting the wider community at risk.
I remember my cousin who worked at Tiger once told me she fell asleep on the aircraft after working 15 hours straight.
Just the right type of people you want looking after you if poo hit the fan.
Virgin will be the new Qantas within 5 years. Virgin as you now see it will not exist complete change of name and business class and staff to wear ties and vests. They are going corporate. Woman will still look good though.

Totally agree Daniel
I believe Virgin change there image as early as Jan 1st?
New corporate colors etc

exactly doesn't hurt trying. I tell you though ramps the quality of merch over in the U.S is so cheap its not funny.
My cousin is in a band and he buys music equipment quitars etc etc for less than $500 usd and sells over here for $2k plus
Clothing and electrical would be just as cheap over there.

Seriously though Lite 'N' Easy & KooGa would be our to biggest sponsors at the moment seeing we don't have a major(s)
I will confess to getting a bit frustrated on the lack of news on this particular front.... it's been 4 months now...
Other thing I noticed regarding the sponsors page is that Dick Smith has disappeared all together. Didn't the Club say that DS was staying on as a sponsor but at a lower level? So shouldnt' they still be there?
Unless of course a possible major is in direct competition with them :pray :pray
Finally sook on this topic for today ;D.... don't the KooGa polos that Dusty & Astbury are wearing on the RFC website look great :nope :nope :nope
let's hope they are only temporary until we get some sponsors
-
The 'unisex' members jacket doesn't look crash hot either :P.
WP. it's repeated in the Fighting Tiger that arrived today that both Dick Smith and Luxbet will be "shifting their marketing focus from co-major partners, but will continue with the Club in 2011." So yep it is a bit strange they've been removed from the RFC website unless plans have changed recently since the FT was sent to the printers :-\.

Great if true and it's worth big $$$ ;D
But it would mean we lose DS completely as there are competitors so anything we lose from DS would need to be covered by either JB & someone else
It just want some action on this front

According to KiwiTiger on BF:
Process is being worked through for new major sponsors. New media sleeve sponsor is in. Dick Smith still involved with the foundation and the Central Aust. program.
Lite'n'Easy still involved as coach sponsor and media polo. Brisbane based packaging company also signed on as media polo sleeve sponsor.
Major sponsor process being worked through. These things take time with negotiation,value proposition, bonus clauses, image rights, AFL vetting and approval. Luxbet took ages due to AFL vetting, gaming regulation, and details re absence of signage on Little League jumpers etc to protect the image. So it is a process that is involved. Apologies I can't be more detailed.
Another poster 'Reiwoldt_Groupie' claims "We've signed at least 1 new major sponsor but haven't revealed it yet."

Yeah it does but seeing they allow Ford & Mazda they don't have much choice I wouldn't have thought ;D
Also as the major sponsor Toyota has a say .... so if they are OK with it it's not an issue

Caro in today's Age...
The Tigers are understood to be in the middle of delicate negotiations with a new major sponsor and have not ruled out selling the naming rights to the club's iconic home ground.

Certainly not a major but still some good coin
I notice on the corporate page they've added some new companies as "Club Providers"
Boots = Blades
Footwear = Brooks (that would be runners etc)
Compression = Skins
See:

Slowly but surely the sponsorship/corporate partnership stuff is coming together IMHO

Or just one really big one like what the Bombers have Samsung, Saints with Jeldwen, Roos with Mazda or the Doggies with Mission (though you'd hope we'd do better than the Doggies with Mission ;D)
-
(though you'd hope we'd do better than the Doggies with Mission ;D)
... or the Roos with Mazda. I believe that's not a very big sponsorship compared with others.

No on the contrary - it isn't too bad (about $1.9-2.0 mil chutney tells me ;D) which is more than the the doggies
I know I read on here somewhere that Mazda & Roos was about $400-500k - it's certainly much more than that

No major sponsorship announement at the AGM last night
However, Gary March said that there would be announcementS regarding major sponsors in the next few weeks
My gut feel is they are very close if not over the line and we are just waiting for the good time to announce. Benny Gale was on SEN yesterday or it might have been Wednesday and said that with Xmas they didn't want it to get lost or overlooked by the media or members
And no they gave no hint as to who they are
One thing they did say again was Dick Smith had committed to the club as a the major supporter of our Indeginous Institute and Indeginous programs in the NT and that Luxbet.com was staying involved
Oops forgot this bit - they siad last night that our total sponsorship levels have increased IIRC 28% over the last years and in 2010 it increased 6.9% - that's bloody good IMHO
-
Willie,
Been told that that the sponsor stuff has all been finalised, but the sponsors themselves want it announced in the new Year. Also brace yourselves for a huge announcement on Wednesday. Great news is gunna starting filtering through to the masses thick and fast.
-
I noticed Lids and the boys driving around in a V8 Holden with Greg Murphy. A hint?

Yeah I got that feeling the sponsorsip is over the line and when I asked someone how it was going and got told "good, it's good" and then got a "wink" - i thought yep it's close
But not wanting to "moz" anything I reckon it's better to think it's close not done :rollin

God I hope not I've just got a new Mitsubishi ;D

Depending on how much money we get Holden would be considered a super sponsor for us. An A grade business name in Australia. Hopefully whoever sponsors the club has paid a proper price this time around and not got an el cheapo sponsorship again.

El cheapo in terms of monetary value compared to what other clubs are getting. :thumbsup
Everybody knows that our last deals were done on very favorable terms for the sponsors because of the state of the economy at the time.

Not true, we were getting over a million from each deal which isn't too bad. Certainly the market rate anyway.

How did that compare to what Collingwood, Essendon and Carlton were and are getting?

not sure whether those comments are supported with fact or you've simply made them up as a quick glimpse of the finacial accounts demonstrates an increase in sponsorship revenue since signing with the departing sponsors but hey don't let the facts get in the way of a good story. please let normal transmiossion resume :shh

The key question is how did these deals compare with the deals that Collingwood, Essendon and Carlton have with their major sponsors.

Just because it may not be up there with the Top 3-4 deals in the competition doesn't make the deal "El cheapo"
The recent deals for Collingwood and Essendon are more recent than our deals and Visy is a bit biased in their process aren't they?
Collingwood & Essendon also don't have the AFL coming in and not allowing our sponsorships or making them go sponsor GWS instead

DOnt' think that's true Infamy - if the media reports were correct the 2 combined were worth $1.8-1.9 mil
Which I have said numberous times was more than what the Dogs get from Mission (1.5) and more than the Demons get with their co majors
The key question is how did these deals compare with the deals that Collingwood, Essendon and Carlton have with their major sponsors.
Flags - firstly you cannot compare our deal or anyone elses with the Pies. Because their deals are massive - certainly what we should aspire to but not realistic when you look at where we are at as a club. Actually the only club I would use to compare to the Pies is the Hawks and that's because of their deal with the Tassie Govt.
End of the day you have to llok at where we sit off-field and who we share the market with.
Teams at the lower end of the ladder get less sponsor $$$ that's the way it works. So the better comparison IMO should always be against teams in a similar position ladder wise to us. I know people don't want to look at things that way but until we start getting consistent on field results that is where we sit. Fortunantely, our 2nd half of season 2010 has made us more attractive and I think our next majors will reflect that
But back to the original question again I don't think the comparisons are realistic. Bombers signed with Samsung (media say its worth $2.5-$3mil p.a) when they were still considered a regular finals side - their test comes when it comes to renewing that deal in light of where they are now.
Blues got a really good deal with Mars - right place at the right time in the sense coming off a top 8 finish in 2009. Not sure of the numbers but media hinted they are worth a million each

Of all of Greg Murphy's sponsors i would have thought Castrol would be the one worth chasing, but they already sponsor a lot of the racing world.
If Holden or Toll were the new sponsor i'm guessing the Toll HRT team would have been involved.
Be a real coup if Holden is involved though, maybe they could paint that blimp of theirs Yellow and Black??

Toll is internationally owned and one of the largest logistics company in the world and by far the largest in Australia.
These days i would value Toll over Holden (as an indepentend from the GM group).
As i believe the Toll HRT team is sponsored by Toll because they dont have GM backing as such, they only have approval.
-
Toll went close to sponsoring the Tiges in the late 90"s early 2000's.
-
A company with a turn over around 6 billion (Aus alone) a year should be able to throw the Tiges a couple of million youd think.
-
Great news! But why do we seem to leave sponsor deals till the last minute?
Last minute is February/March, not December
-
Hahaha i actually work for Toll and they are the biggest tightarses going around! they wouldnt sponsor an AFL if they had a gun to thier head, they have been trying to get out of thier sponsorship with HRT for years and only did it because Paul Little the CEO is a massive fan, now he's leaving the company and id expect them to not re-sign when the current contract expires!
They are actually changing the logo color to Blue and yellow across all toll companies! similar to the navy and yellow that the eagles used to wear!

Actually it is probably a good thing we have named any new sponsors this week - would get lost in the photo crap that is going on

Seriously if the new sponsor is after maximum exposure when it's finally announced then we'll be waiting till nearly February :-\ with many people on holiday over Christmas and through January.
-
According to RFC official there will be an announcement this week :thumbsup
-
Word on twitter from RT_73 is the announcement this week (tomorrow) will just be about a minor sponsor confirming Signet as polo-sleeve sponsor. The new major sponsor doesn't want to announce theirs until 2011.
-
From peejay on BF:
"I can tell you now that the Holden rumour is false.
Have a friend senior at GMH who told me that other than HDT racing, Holden view sports advertising as not worthwhile - they believe that TV , Radio and Print is the way to go for them."

I really doubt it would be the announcement of Signet, KiwiTiger (an inside source on BF) said they were only going to be a "media polo sleeve" sponsor. I don't think we would kick up much a fuss about announcing that. Plus Blaisee said to "brace ourselves for a huge announcement".
Sleeve sponsors aren't huge are they?
-
no, bugga all...lucky to be 6 figures

no, bugga all...lucky to be 6 figures

I wouldnt dismiss any of the above, all fairly major brands that could with a vehicle like the RFC to make them mighty brands
I would dimiss Clive Peeters for 2 reasons:
1/ They went broke and are only still trading because they've been bought out by Harvey Norman. Would actually expect the name Clive Peeters to go some time within the next 12 months. Would be mighty surprised if they were looking at sponsoring anything at the moment
2/ Although DSmith are no longer a major sponsor - Gary March said at the AGM that DSmith had signed some sort of agreement with the Club to be a major supporter of the Indigenous Institute. Seeing DSmith & Clive Peeters are competitors I can't see them both being involved at any level while the other was there
-
WP both TCL and BINGLE would appear likely types, I say that coz a number of players in their respective markets (sound/vision & Insurance) spend big $$$$ on sponsorship would be no surprise at all if they were to see RFC as a likely partner in their endeavours going forward

If that's the case then we'll be sponsored by the US treasury who now own 92% of AIG's common shares.

Aon would make more sense
Certainly prefer them to most of the other rumoured sponsors :pray
Yep it would be good PR to be able to say we share a major sponsor with Man U.
Would be wouldn't it. But the tv worldwide exposure Man Utd would get compared to us in palpable.
What I want from whoever our major sponsor(s) are is a good deal for the club in terms of dollars at something well over a million possibly even nudging two. The size of the deal I feel would be a reflection of where we may be perceived off field in terms of our development and whether we will be seen as taking the next step and hence more free to air tv exposure.
Assuming the deal announced on Thursday is for three years if we improve each season and by the end of 2013 we are a top 4 side based on the average age of our side we may be up for a huge deal after that that in today's terms could be worth 5 million a season.
-
Chutney is very tighted lipped, in a mood >:( ;D
Just said an Insurance Co - no names but I doubt very much it is AON
Remember we need a shorts sponsor as well so TCL (if they are coming on board) may have signed for that

They sponsor plenty, but they do tend to focus on extreme sports rather than mainstream stuff
-
EXTREME AMERICAN SOCCER! More dives and fresh air kicks than ever before!

They do sponsor plenty of extreme sports and athletes but they also sponsor some mainstream sports. Red Bull (Austria) Salzberg in Soccer and Chris Broad in cricket.

Well tomorrow is supposedly the DAY ;D
Will it be joint majors or one major? I am expecting joint
Chutney still aint talking just said it again "insurance Will we all need insurance" Will said "Chut give me some news or pee off". I haven't spoken to Chutney in days ;D

The toothless Joffas have got that one HRT.
SEN said the annoucement will be out at Knoxfield. KiwiTiger on BF saying it's SIGNET (ie. signs already seen up at Punt Rd) but we already know they are going to be our media sleeve sponsor so that wouldn't be new news.

Perhaps it's been there for a while and I haven't noticed it before but there's now a Luxbet ad on the RFC site now under the other sponsors at the bottom of the page. Fits in with them staying on as a minor club sponsor.

Okay this is third hand info but I was told earlier this morning at training we had a major sponsor locked in (they didn't say who) and the jumpers were heading off to be made up. This would make sense given the redevelopment, media and shorts/trackies sponsors are now known.

Did you know they are 100% underwritten by AAMI? That's gotta be a massive tick in the positive :clapping

Bingle.com.au confirmed as new co-major sponsor
Back of jumper
As per HUN
On the day the Tigers secured car insurance company Bingle as a co-major sponsor, Newman said belief was growing that the dark days are almost over.

No idea Stripes - the HUN article says they are close to signing another major sponsor
But seeing they've done the photo shot for Bingle with no logo on the front of the jumper I'd say it's not quite there yet but my gut feel is they wil lhave something soon

Well well it seems the HUN article I posted here has disappeared from their web-site ;D
What I mean is if you look at the AFL page it's gone but if you click on the link I posted the article is still there

The sponsorship announcements are coming through pretty quickly now, ME Bank before xmas and in the new year Signet, Clive Peeters and now Bingle in quick succession
Given our game against the All Stars is next week, I'd expect the next announcement before then
-
Well done RFC. Real positive stuff. I agree with Infamy the sponsor for the front of the guernsey will probably be announced early next week prior to the All Star game. :thumbsup
-
Well done RFC :thumbsup. Good to see soy sauce was on the money ;).
So far all the sponsors named have been the ones rumoured over the past month or so. So presumably TCL is possibly the final piece of the puzzle on the front of the guernsey?
Whoever it is hopefully they will be named in time for the All Stars game.

Well done RFC :thumbsup. Good to see soy sauce was on the money ;).

Bingle joins as co-major partner
11:38 PM Thu 27 Jan, 2011
Richmond Football Club today announced Bingle as a co-major partner for the next two years.
The Bingle logo will appear on the back of Richmond’s match-day Guernsey and on other associated signage, marketing collateral and apparel.
Launched in 2007, Bingle is Australia’s leading provider of low-cost, comprehensive, online car insurance.
Part of the Suncorp Group and underwritten by one of Australia’s leading insurers, Bingle allows customers to buy and manage their car insurance online and, in the event of having to make a claim, customers can choose to notify Bingle online or call to speak to someone in the Bingle team.
“This is obviously a very significant announcement for the Club and we are delighted that Bingle has seen Richmond as a brand, that can help contribute towards the growth in their business,” Richmond CEO Brendon Gale said.
“Richmond has made a significant investment in ramping up its digital presence and clearly this has some important implications for an organisation like Bingle.
“As with all our partners, we look forward to providing them real value in the next two years and hopefully beyond.”
The Tigers’ deal with Bingle comes on the back of Clive Peeters shorts partnership. The Club also recently announced a partnership with ME Bank, who secured naming rights to the club’s new training and administration base, and Signet who will appear on the sleeve of Richmond’s official media polo for the next three years.

I hope our relationship with a Bingle is more fruitful than Clarke's and Fev's.

2012 Bingle Tigers we'll do anyone.

cant wait to see the next set of financials from the club - sounds like our sponsorship/corporate income has gone through the roof.

seems like we are finally making the transition from a VFL to an AFL club :gotigers

Depends, I'd like to see a comparison of what the new sponsors are tipping in compared to previous years.

If we sell everything we are ahead automatcially because we now have naming rights to the re-development. Something we didn't have last year

we were probably at least even when we signed the ME bank deal.

Agree, assuming our apparel sponsors are tipping in equal to/more than previous deals (which you'd think would be the case).
Anyone have figures?
-
we were probably at least even when we signed the ME bank deal.
yep thats what i was thinking, then we have the added bonus of dick smith and luxbet staying on as minor sponsors - 2 low stream sponsors we didnt have this tme last year.

Don't forget I also left two cases of West End Export cans at reception. We're well ahead.

It seems as though the harvard business course that Benny completed at the AFLPA's expense was well worth it.

Have to admit VW and QBE are blue chip sponsors for the swans. Good luck to them.

ME Bank right up top. Must indeed be very nice cash we are getting from that while we still get co major sponsors. Should be 1.5 mil extra on revenue from sponsors alone. :thumbsup

Sounds like they are in the final stages, just haven't crossed the Ts yet.

I just hope it gets done before round 1

Benny also tapped the front of his shoulder as though he was wearing a guernsey and basically said this spot is worth something and we won't just accept anything for the sake it.

The Bombers' three-year sponsorship deal with True Value Solar is worth more than $5 million.
They will wear the company's logo on the front of their jumper for away games and on the back for home games, with existing partner Samsung on the alternative side of the guernsey.

I thought Samsung's deal was for both sides of the jumper.
I wonder how they feel about this, if they've been bumped off for more money or if they've reduced their sponsorship deal

If Essendon just got $1.7 million a year for a major sponsor which is split by the way then to be honest we should be matching these numbers. I'd be disappointed if we couldnt match the $5million over 3 years from our up coming sponsorship arrangement.

For whatever reason Flagman Essendon offer one thing we don't at this stage and that is more FTA TV coverage (they've got 14 games in 2011) - FTA is worth more sponsorship $$$$

Yep, we're still clawing back up to the top of the pile. Those sponsorship figures will come, and then we'll start passing them. Donate to the FTF ;)

I would much rather we pick the best sponsor with the potential to grow over the long term than a short term opportunistic play.
The best fit would be worth sacrificing a few less dollars today with the view to it being worth big $$$$ when finals come our way in a few years time.

Having said that I just saw this ...
One piece of puzzle remains
richmondfc.com.au
Wed 24 Feb, 2010
Richmond Football Club remains confident of signing its second co-major sponsor prior to the start of the 2011 season.
The Tigers’ commercial operations team has signed four new significant partnerships and retained two former major partners of the Club at a lower level, since the completion of the 2010 season.
Bingle is now a co-major sponsor, Clive Peters has joined as shorts partner while ME Bank signed a five-year deal for naming rights of the new training and administration base. Signet has also joined the Tigers as media polo partner.
Importantly, Dick Smith and Tabcorp have both been retained as community partners of the Club.
“The Club has made significant progress and we are really pleased with the quality of the business partnerships we have been able to establish,” Richmond CEO Brendon Gale said.
“The final piece of the puzzle will be securing our second co-major sponsor. We are in discussions and I am confident we will be able to make an announcement in the near future.
“It is a competitive marketplace but equally, I believe Richmond Football Club has a very good story to tell. We are a young, energetic football club right now with a clear direction and the right people to deliver our fans what they want - on-field success.
“We have more than 500,000 supporters nationally, the most passionate in the competition, and we are about to shift into a brand new facility, the ME Bank Centre.
“We are also pushing up towards 35,000 members and the season is still more than a month away so we have a lot to be positive about.”

Tigers still searching for major guernsey sponsor
Caroline Wilson
February 24, 2011
THE optimism surrounding Richmond's new era under Brendon Gale and coach Damien Hardwick has not yet been reflected in the form of a much-needed major sponsor for the front of the Tigers guernsey.
With the club having successfully launched its $6 million Fighting Tiger Fund, chief executive Gale conceded yesterday that the buoyancy at Tigerland regarding the club's future had not been yet been enough to seal a second major sponsor.
Richmond reached a deal with Bingle - an offshoot of the insurance giant SunCorp - late last month with the hope of a co-major partnership to quickly follow. Gale conceded that the current scenario was not ideal but he would not entertain the prospect of entering round one without front-of-jumper corporate partner.
St Kilda, which has endured an horrific and scandalous summer off-field, and Port Adelaide, which meets the Tigers in the NAB Challenge in Alice Springs this weekend, are also searching for new major sponsorship agreements.
But Port chief executive Mark Haysman said strong public support for new coach Matthew Primus had been reflected in the corporate community and that the Power hoped to announce a major partner for My ATM by early next month.
Gale ended his first full season at Richmond with most of the club's major partnerships in their final year - including major sponsorship agreements with Dick Smith and Luxbet. Despite a strong belief within the club that it will continue to improve under the present regime, the Tigers still finished 15th in 2010 in a year when its average attendances and TV ratings fell.
''We've secured some outstanding partners over recent years and both Dick Smith and Luxbet have stayed on in different agreements,'' said Gale. ''We renamed our training facility the ME Bank Centre and Clive Peeters have come on board as a shorts sponsor. We've got a few possibilities but we have no agreement as yet.''

Apparently a horse called Arta couldn't be pulled out, he sunk and died. It was quite upsetting.
Edit: Let's keep comments above the belt shall we.

what is she angry about? Why would she be vengeful? Her dad was president once right? So what's that got to do with anything?
Did she try for the coaching job once and not get it?
I don't understand!!!!

Despite a strong belief within the club that it will continue to improve under the present regime, the Tigers still finished 15th in 2010 in a year when its average attendances and TV ratings fell.
TV ratings fell across the board because the networks especially SEVEN won't show games live. Hardly our fault ???.
Average attendences of course fell when we had so many games against interstate and low drawing Melbourne sides, an away game again in Geelong plus two crowds in the teens because it was either bucketing down or hailing. Our only home game against a big 4 club was Carlton in round 1. Our average attendance will take a hit again this year due to playing home games in Darwin and Cairns but let's not let the bleedingly obvious get in the way of another dig at Richmond :sleep.
-
From 'seenitall' on Y&B:
"I believe the sticking point is the length of the agreement.
We have a firm offer for an adequate amount, but the potential sponsor is insisting on a long-term deal at the same annual rate.
The Club believes we will be worth more in the not-too-distant future, so wants either provision for a yearly review, or a shorter term."

I can't believe i am about to do this but ..... ;D
I read the Age story while I was away (beautiful weather in Bright BTW ;D ) and I didn't take it as being an angry dig a the Club by Caro, I just took it as being the truth.
Fact is we don't have a co major sponsor for the front of our jumper, just like Port doesn't have one for the back of theirs as for St Kilda ...well who cares ;)
I read the Club's article yesterday when I got home and after reading it and comparing it Caro's piece I still don't see anything wrong or an angry (vengeful) slant with what she said she simply stated the facts as the stand at the moment.
She could have easily stuck the boots in; in a variety of ways (eg by not quoting Benny Gale) but she didn't. Besides if it generates some interest within the the corporate world for us then it may just be a good thing

Both articles were accurate WP but she worded hers with a negative tone while the club's was positive (understandably). She could have written that short article in a few different ways without sacrificing accuracy but it just seemed to me to be more of the same old same old with Caro - why tell a story about Richmond any other way but negative.

I suppose that's the key difference in how we "read" Caro's article smokey. I didn't think it was negative or worded in a negative tone. I thought the fact that she included that we had signed "bingle.com" and others & quoted Gale made it credible. A really negative Caro piece wouldn't have included it that :thumbsup
All about ones take on it I suppose :thumbsup

Yes of course! On Austar they have each game down separate on the television guide for the Nab Cup so that makes sense!

Why the club get a car manufacturer as major sponsor?
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?

We did try but as mentioned a while back on KB's show the AFL pushed Skoda towards GWS when we were in negotiations with Skoda :scream.
In any case normally we wouldn't be allowed to sign a sponsor that conflicted with an AFL sponsors (in this case Toyota). Geelong, Carlton and North has pre-existing deals. There was talk though that Toyota and the AFL may split at the end of this season which is why Skoda was allowed to sponsor GWS.

Anything would be nice at the moment for the extra $$$, but I have to admit, the tops look good with no sponsor on the front! :cheers

i don't think we are talking to anyone. a bit disappointing that less then three weeks from Round 1 we still don't have a major sponsor. we are either wanting to much or we don't like a particular offer.

We would be definitely be talking to at least one company this close to the start of the season and are most likely in deep discussions. If we weren't Caro would have an article out a.s.a.p. about the AFL being concerned about us not being able to attract 'a' sponsor. We may be waiting off until the March 17 gala night to announce it. It might even raise :eyebrow.

1. As MT said we would be talking to someone and my reckon we are talking
and
2. we have 1 major sponsor in bingle.com as a major and are trying to finalise a second major - it isn't all doom and gloom ;D

Gary March said there'll be a exciting announcement at the FTF gala night on March 17. Hopefully it's the new co-major sponsor :pray.

Dick Smith to partner Tigers in the Community
richmondfc.com.au 4:05 PM Tue 08 Mar, 2011
Dick Smith will continue its involvement with the Richmond Football Club, partnering with its Tigers in the Community Foundation in an innovative three-year program, which is committed to helping keep Indigenous students in school throughout Central Australia.
This new partnership worth over $1m between Dick Smith and Richmond builds on a pilot conducted in 2010. The program will incorporate a number of initiatives aimed at increasing school attendance and contributing to building longer term employment pathways.
“We are delighted to be maintaining our association with Dick Smith in this way,” said Richmond’s CEO Brendon Gale.
“As a club, we have a genuine, long-term commitment to improving educational outcomes in Central Australian communities, and it’s great that Dick Smith shares our passion for this.”
The program has been developed in collaboration with the Northern Territory Department of Education and Training and its core focus includes:
• An Outback Tigers program, managed by a Richmond employee based in Alice Springs, which delivers messages on health, hygiene, student behaviour, physical activity, leadership skills and career plans.
• Technology in the Territory sessions, where Richmond players speak regularly to students in remote areas via web-cam technology.
• Player visits to schools in Central Australia that have demonstrated improved or excellent attendance.
• Technology rewards (supplied by Dick Smith) and trips to Melbourne and Darwin for students who demonstrate improved or excellent attendance.
• Opportunities to transition students into work experience and employment with Dick Smith.
Debra Singh, General Manager of Dick Smith, said, “This program is a terrific opportunity for Dick Smith to support the educational outcomes of young Indigenous Australians in Central Australia. By developing and nurturing skills at primary and secondary level, we can play a significant role in assisting with the transition from school to work.”
More than 20 schools and 3000 students throughout Central Australia will be involved in the program over the next three years.

Nothing about Richmond (sadly given it's an article about sponsorship, tv audience and crowds) but here's the power of sponsorship in the AFL ....
AFL's success in black and white
Mark Hawthorne
March 9, 2011
WITH a new season looming for Australia's biggest sporting codes, the rush is on for clubs to land sponsors before the opening round.
The Western Bulldogs are the latest to ink a deal, re-signing Mission Foods until 2014. The uniform deal, estimated at a little over $1.5 million a year, will help the Bulldogs as they struggle under $5 million of debt. But it will also provide a marketing boon for Mission Foods, as AFL football dominates the battle for corporate dollars, crowds and viewer eyeballs.
A report into sporting media coverage has been compiled by independent firm Repucom, and it shows that Australia's home-grown football code has built a lead over the NRL, A-League and SuperRugby competitions when it comes to providing value for sponsors. Last year Mission benefited from $5.5 million of media exposure from its sponsorship of the Bulldogs, a figure helped by a much-reported spat with player Jason Akermanis.
Bulldogs president David Smorgon was upbeat about the record sponsorship deal yesterday, but also recognised the return provided by his club.
''We believe our partnership has created great brand value for Mission,'' Smorgon said.
The AFL was the most-watched football competition on Australian television last year, with an average of 14.64 million viewers per club. That compares with 13.81 million viewers per club for the NRL.
With free-to-air television dominated by the AFL and NRL, rivals are left to the limited audience of pay-TV. As a result, A-League soccer clubs average 1.5 million viewers per season, and SuperRugby clubs just 958,000.
Repucom's 9th annual Football Benchmarking report compiles data on the exposure major club sponsors receive on television, in print and in ''peripheral'' forms of media, such as the internet.
The television data calculates the number of viewers per match, the location of brand logos in a TV screen, and the amount of time those logos can be seen.
Its latest report shows that a presence on free-to-air television and high levels of print media coverage are crucial for sponsors.
The point is demonstrated by Collingwood, among the most-watched and reported clubs of any code in the country.
Almost 28 million viewers tuned in to Collingwood matches on TV last season.
That's more than the total Australian audience of every A-League and SuperRugby match combined.
No other AFL or NRL club can make such a boast.
The most-watched NRL club was St George Illawarra, with 23 million viewers for the year.
When match attendance is included, the AFL's dominance is even greater.
The AFL averaged 918,000 spectators per club last season, and the league provided the 14 most-watched football teams in the country.
Collingwood drew almost 1.7 million fans to its matches. Four other AFL clubs - St Kilda, Geelong, Carlton and Essendon - also drew a million or more spectators through the turnstiles last season.
The average NRL attendance was 436,000 spectators, less than half that of an AFL club.
The A-League averaged 297,000 spectators per club, and the Super-15 competition 166,000.
According to Repucom, AFL clubs generate an average $3.1 million of media coverage for their sponsors, compared with $2.97 million for the NRL.
More than half that media value for AFL sponsors comes from the TV exposure, and a quarter from print media.
Such is the might of the Magpies, the club generated $6.3 million of media exposure for sponsor Emirates last year and a further $5.7 million for Aussie Home loans - ranking it No. 1 and 2 in the country. Little wonder that Emirates' head of global sponsorship and events, Boutros Boutros, said the Dubai airline was ''very happy'' with its long-term deal with the Magpies.
According to Repucom, Collingwood's jumper is also the most valuable single football asset in the country.

Interesting number because Caro's reported in today's Age the figure for the Doggies deal with Mission "could be a high" as $6.5 mil over 3 years. Which reads to me that there's a foxed component & bonuses in their new deal. and btw $1.5 a year was the old figure ;D

So he brings in more money for the league , pats his own slimy little back and increases his multi million dollar salary, while undermining the clubs' efforts to bring in sposnorship dollars

So which company is peejay talking about or is peejay hedging bets ??? ;D
There is:
TCL - electrical company which is known TCL Electronics Australia Pty Ltd = TVs and currently launching their white goods range
and Transurban Holdings whos ASX code is TCL they are 2 very different companies

Sponsorship is about the money but TCL as in the electronics company would be a disappointment in my humble opinion.

Sponsorship is about the money but TCL as in the electronics company would be a disappointment in my humble opinion.

You yourself said it is about the money, so why does it matter who wants to give us that money?

But TCL the electronics company is huge company in Asia and is now forging sales in North America & Europe.
Going by what I've research on them they aint no small Chinese company.
They have over 30 manufacturing sites globally. They seem to be very much like Hisense was (as in Hisense Area) that is they are trying to launch in Aust & perhaps are looking at sponsorship (eg Melb Cup Carnival) to do it.
NB: I have no idea who our co-major maybe
