1965 actually raised a really good option and it's one I intend to take.

I will get the base 3 game membership. Solely so I keep my gold successive years going.

My daughters will miss out.

Will go from spending 1400 to spending the bare minimum.

Cotch and Dimma can stick their four walls up their arse.

Damo, I have always looked up to you as the bastion of calm and measured comments about the club. Tell us, why youre at where you are at with the club.

Put simply.

They are liars and we as members are misled.

I don't let results impact my feelings. It's not about winning and losing, it's about how we as members are treated.

This isn't a normal situation. The club begged us with FTF. We have a "war chest" apparently. Why don't they actually have a crack and use the stuffing thing.

Prestia will be a good pick up, he sure as hell isn't the saviour though.

Also, signing Dimma like they did wasn't smart business. Where was he going to go? Who was going to poach him from outside Richmond. Surely a year extension would have sufficed??

But more than anything else, I truly believe a percentage of the club have neglected to treat paying members with a semblance of respect. I think our captain and a few others need to remember there is more to an AFL club than just the four walls.

The equation is VERY simple .. No members = no club = no employer = no millions of dollars for salaries.

These imbeciles need to understand the fans pay their wages. This is done via members and people tuning in at home (TV rights).

I travel from country vic to the games and I'm over the effort.

The AFL now is business. It's corporate. Aboriginal round, multi cultural round, Anzac round, woman's round, gay round, cancer round ... Every round other than a white Anglo Saxon male round.

You treat customers with respect. We are the customers.

We are buying the product from Richmond.

Firstly, the product we are buying is like buying a cheap Chinese knock off (Panafonic).
Secondly, they are telling lies whilst providing a sub standard product.
Thirdly, we are being treated like fools.

Zero respect.

If it was a normal business , it would have gone broke long ago.

If this was retail, people would stop buying the crap they are schilling.

You're not a true supporter if you don't hand over your hard earned for the decision makers to pee up a wall.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Have fun supporting an even more soulless corporation

Grand final every year with my kids. You bet i enjoy it pal. That's one membership il never get rid of because you actually get a return for your investment.

Beats wasting money on perennial losers year after year

You enjoy that though  :thumbsup

Prestia will do nothing to this club. Not because he isn't a good player but if the culture ain't right it matters little who you get

How are the pies going with Treloar?

True the soul is gone replaced by dollars, dull games, better grounds and $4 pies. It's swings n round abouts . There are less shellackings going on like used to happen to the bears each week but god possession footy is soccer like tripe.

For me a lot depends on how the trade period goes and who they get as assistant coaches.  If we give up pick 6 for Prestia I wont be renewing unless we get a draft pick in return.

U guys r stuffn crazy.

The only vote they will listen to, is you not buying memberships.

They won't have any moving space with stuff all memberships.

Members CAN control the club....not with a vote but with their financial contributions.

If u want change -STOP PAYING UNTIL DIMMER, PEGGY AND GALE ARE ALL GONE.

8.2.4 Members can only opt out of the Committed Tiger at the conclusion of their last installment and the first installment for the following season by notifying the Club either in writing or via email membership@richmondfc.com.au. All outstanding payments must be complete at time of opting out.

https://membership.richmondfc.com.au/member-zone/tcs-0


Am assuming this means you need to opt out after Oct 15th but before Nov 15th.

Have had a membership for a very long time.

Won't be renewing next year if Hardwick is there.

He should have been sacked five years ago.  His game plan is unwatchable and doesn't work.

No way will I continue to fund a regime that facilitates mediocrity.
