Luxbet officially our new major co-sponsor
« on: August 23, 2008, 03:28:29 AM »
from the Age...

Richmond president Gary March said negotiations were under way for a new sponsor of Richmond. "It's not going to be announced in the next few days, or even the next week, but we have had some very good discussions with several parties," March said.

"It's a double-edged sword right now. There's not just a downturn in the economy, but many clubs, not just in AFL either, are out of sponsorship at the same time."

Hope that's not an excuse for getting less than the previous AFG sponsorship

exactly, as we all know, "these current tough economic times" have not stopped the bombers scoring the biggest sponsorship deal in afl history with samsung and also scoring a big deal with adidas

Any whispers on who we are talking to or what industry sector the potential sponsor is from (eg: aviation)?

Can't see the aviation industry getting involved, they're having enough trouble with fuel prices
I looked at the costs of international flights last night and was horrified by the prices

Ta Blaisee.

Well Toyota sponsors the league (and Adelaide) so apart from Geelong's long relationship with Ford they'd probably resist any other auto competitor. They're also not sacking workers in the current auto crisis as they went down the small car and hybrid path. Hmmm how does the Toyota Tigers sound?

As for Finance - CBA has the colours Y&B.
