RICHMOND



BEST JUMPER: 2004 with the Tiger on the neck/collar – The beauty of the Richmond jumper is the tradition it carries and using the club’s logo on the neck/collar only emphasised this further. The Drink, drive bloody idiot message was an iconic partnership.

WORST JUMPER: 2006 Silver Top Taxis promo – The Tigers partnered with Silver Top Taxis for the 2005 and 2006 pre-seasons, wearing a silver jumper featuring the Tiger logo. It was ugly in 2005 and then made worse when the Tiger logo was black in 2006.

MOST FASHIONABLE JUMPER: Anzac Day eve wattle sash, first worn in 2022 – The perfect blend of tradition and marking what has become a huge occasion for Richmond. Featured a poem, ‘Ode for the fallen’.

Obviously,  the HUN couldn't find a pic of the jumper they are talking about. They were talking the H&A jumper of 2004 not the one on the left which was kur heritage jumper that season

Not sure any Tiger supporter would say a jumper we wore in a wooden spoon season was our best :huh3. It was also the final year before we brought back the full sash on the back of the jumper. But it's the Hun, so no surprise they come up with such crap :yep.
