It's a sponsor's idea  :-\.

----------------------------------------------

Tigers CEO Brendon Gale confirmed today the move is linked to a marketing campaign by insurance agency Bingle — there is a Bingle billboard outside Punt Rd that shows Richmond players riding horses, but that seems unlikely before the first game of the season.

The Richmond plan hasn’t been well received by fans so far.

I couldn't give a poo so long as we hear our club song after the game.

Really surprised that no one twigged this was sponsor driven until the club said something

Facts are

Bingle are our co-major sponsor

They kick in over a milliom bucks a year

Its their current marketing campaign. Hasn't anyone seen the TV commercials?

If this "entertainment" means we keep said sponsor very happy; read they renew their generous sponsorship then go for it.

It's part of the unavoidable business of footy

Stop being a corporate shill.

Want the supporters to start holding up Bingle placards and waving Jeep flags like the West Coast Whoppers & Camry Crows fans as well?

Early 90s Baby boomer rubbish mentality. Still browning the mid 2010s

'Oh it will be fantastic Neville. We weren't going to go but let's drive the Burgundy Territory into the G and have a ball. I hear Kate Cebrano will be there too".

"Oh she's just fantastic Jenny. And so is that new artist...what's her name? Delta?"

"Oh she's just fantastic Neville. I mean, she can't dance and that's why she astral plains in every music video, but she's just so talented"
