Cheers WP, where is the seating ?

As I said level 2 Ponsford stand

I am a current 3121 member and will more than likely stay and I love my seat on Level 2 Olympic.
I have gone and sat Level 2 Ponsford and been a guest with a friend at a Collingwood home game there with the meal and half time footy food etc. What I find strange and correct me if I am wrong if we are the home team against Pies people with Inner Sanctum memberships have only General Admission entry to the game. Couldn't the club offer a reserve seat given the Collingwood agreement thy have in the Ponsford to lets sat Southern Stand or Olympic? Whereas with my reserve seat in the Olympic I have no issue for all our home games at the G. :-\

Not right Don.

You are correct that IS members didnt have access to their room or the reserved seats in the Ponsford stand for the C'wood game. Reason being that with C'wood's agreement with the MCG they have exclusive access to the Pinsford stand for their members for all games they play at the MCG. All clubs not just the RFC lose access to the rooms and seating on the Ponsford against C'wood (even Peptide-dons on ANZAC day when it's their home game)

However, we did have access to a room and a reserve seat for the C'wood game. They were both in the Olympic stand. Biggest gripe that people had was the room was on level 3 and the seats were on level 2.  :thumbsup

Thanks WP as considering helping out the club and maybe getting one on top of my 3121 membership but that clarifies things as I said I probably had it wrong. :thumbsup
Either way having a guaranteed Grand Final seat with my level of membership is paramount and hopefully coterie club members and members with higher level memberships can have first dibs on finals tix should we make it next year unlike the debacle we saw this year on the Monday before the final.

Sadly we certainly don't get first dibs on finals tkts in weeks 1 to 3. Believe the wording for that is going to be changed to reflect that for 2014. It will say exactly the as,e as what it does for 3121, MRC and all other members

Personally certainly don't agree with it (reckon it's poor for the money you pay) but that's the way it is I've been told when I've asked about it. 

Only guarantee will be GF tickets and the priority access to purchase tickets in weeks 1-3 = the same debacle we had at 9am on that dreaded Monday morning before our final

From twitter:

‏@KenSeymour - "Shattered!! @Richmond_FC have dumped Cotchy's Cubs for 2014. Big shoes for @brandonjellis to fill. #SendMoreCotchTatts"

@Richmond_FC - "Cotch has got a lot going on now, when Cotchy's Cubs started he was just a kid. Brandon is king of the kids!"

Club is targetting 75k members for 2014 - article also says VFL games at Punt Road
============================================================

Tigers target 75,000 members

richmondfc.com.au  October 31, 2013 1:04 PM

Richmond has incorporated its rich history, passionate supporter base and future ambition in its 2014 membership campaign - Strong and Bold: Bring the Roar Home.

The Tigers are set to build on the 2013 season, which saw record membership and a return to the finals for the first time since 2001.

After becoming just the third Club in AFL/VFL history to break through the 60,000 member barrier, the Club is aiming to sign 75,000 members in 2014.

The words “Strong and Bold” resonate with Richmond’s passionate and loyal fan base.  They appear in the lyrics to the Club’s theme song and underpin its core values and ambitious strategic direction.
