Tiger Woods coming to Melbourne - Get him down to Punt Rd
« on: March 19, 2009, 06:24:20 PM »
Another potential marketing coup if the RFC could get Tiger Woods while he's down in Melbourne for the Australian Masters over to Punt Rd and into a Tiger guernsey with the headline "Tiger joins the Tigers"  :thumbsup.

Tigers brilliant but he's no miracle worker.

Would be an incredible coup but his 'appearance fee' for the tournament is half of our players salary cap.

Expect to see Tiger Woods in a Carlton jumper in November...one word NIKE

Simple solution
Give Tiger a replica Richmond playing guernsey from 2001-04 with the Nike Shwoosh as we were sponsored by Nike then. :thumbsup

I remember hearing his caddie being interviewed once - could have been SEN a few years back - and he was a Richmond supporter and had convinced Tiger to go for the Tiges.  So he's a Tiger supporter but you might be right with the Nike connection.  Our big chance to get some great headlines and the bloody Blues ruin it :-(

Yeah I reckon Dick Smith would just love to see Tiger Woods in a Richmond jumper with the TAC logo on it  :nope :nope

They'd be as happy as Reebok I would think  ;) ;D

Not sure it would be that big a deal given the masters are in November...

He had a caddy, Steve something or other, who won't be too pleased about that
Steve is a Tiger supporter and was a few years ago trying to get Tiger to barrack for the Tiges
And I thought he was successful
This is not on lol  :banghead
