Great job Tiges.

Have to say, not many leaks seem to be getting out of Punt Rd anymore. No-one had any idea until the day before the announcement.

the article hints at 2 million(over 3 yrs I assume) which is low - very low

lets hope this is wrong figure and that GGs figure is correct, if its only 700k a year then theres a serious problem at the club IMHO. It should be double that which puts it where GG has the amount as being. In relative terms what does a Jeep Grand Cherokee cost $60k maybe $70k or say a Jeep Wrangler $30k maybe 40k. In effect Jeep and Chrysler just have to sell 10 to 12 Grand Cherokees a year to Richmond supporters to get there money back on 700k a year. On a risk reward its a great investment for them even at $1.5 million a year all they have to sell say 15 Grand Cherokees and afew Wranglers and they'll come out in front. When there marketing to a club which has 600,000-800,000 supporters Australia wide, then the odds are pretty good for them. Im therefore hoping that the $700k figure is wrong and that the $1.5 million a year is the correct number as that would be more to real value for both parties. And thats before any media exposure and marketing done for them by the club, corporate boxes and other sponsorship benefits.

I didn't think the article hinted one way or another about how much it is worth.

As I mentioned the HUN article is wrong in saying it is a 3 year deal. The RFC website clearly says it's a 2 year deal.

So look at it this way if you want to believe it's a $2mil deal.

If it is $2mil for 2 years then it's a bloody good deal indeed 

And please dont' lose sight of the fact we were in the bottom 3 on the ladder last year - whether we like it or not we cannot "command" the big $$$ yet. We need to start winning games consistently... Build it and they will come 

I actually applaud the CLub in not hinting one way or another how much these deals are worth - we don't need to know it's more fun guessing don't ya reckon

Jeep in the jungle

Richmond is pleased to announce that it has secured a major partnership with automotive brand Jeep, which will appear on the front of the Richmond guernsey for at least the next two years.

Jeep will join Richmond as a co-major Partner of the Tigers, together with Australia’s leading online car insurance provider Bingle.

“Partnering with Jeep is a fantastic step forward for the Richmond Football Club, which adds to the excitement among our members and fans as we head into a new season,” CEO Brendon Gale said.

“We are thrilled and proud to be associated with such a strong and exciting brand in Jeep.  There is a great fit between our organisations, the exciting journey we are on and our ambitious plans for the future.”

“Both parties have worked hard to ensure this alignment occurred, and we look forward to a long and fruitful partnership.”

Celebrating it’s 70th anniversary this year, the iconic Jeep brand is arguably the most recognisable in the automotive landscape. Surging forward with award-winning recent product development and aggressive new marketing strategies, the legendary brand is set for big things this year, with the Richmond partnership being a sensational element of that progress.

“There are few clubs with the rich history of Richmond, and even fewer automotive brands with the history of Jeep” said Sam Tabart, General Manager of Marketing for parent company Chrysler Australia.

“Our approach is one of passion and strength, with the mantra ‘Don’t Hold Back!’ So what better fit for Jeep than Richmond Football Club who’s positive, professional approach and membership dedication is something we are extremely excited to be a part of.”

The announcement comes on the back of a productive pre-season off the field for Richmond, which has formed partnerships with ME Bank (training and administration base), Bingle (back of jumper), Clive Peeters (shorts), Signet (sleeve) and KooGa (apparel) since the end of the 2010 season.

Why the club get a car manufacturer as major sponsor?

AFL and Adelaide and west coast has Toyota
Geelong has Ford
Carlsum and the lions has Hyundai ( and A-league)
New-South-Wales-Waratahs & Nth Melbourne have Mazda
Melbourne Storm has Suzuki.

What of Mitsubishi or Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge or Kia or Holden?

I don't want to blow my horn but I reckon Benny was reading my post.
