GWS article confirming Federal Treasurer Joe Hockey is a "confessed Richmond supporter".

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-02-18/new-base-a-boost-cameron

Joe was one of the people at the Federal Government who approved the building of the ME Bank Centre and has been a Tiger ever since. He has visited multiple times and has even spoken to the leadership group.
Err, the election was only in september last year, wasn't this all being built before then when Labour were in or am living in some sort of twilight zone?

Thought the same thing Owl, so I did some research  ;D

Libs were in power when the first lot of Federal funding was approved but the bigger chunk for the Indigenious Learning Centre was given by ALP

Originally club got around $9mil in funding from Fed (Libs) & State (ALP) govts of the day, Melb City Council (pre Dobby Boyle)& AFL

Club then lobbied and got further funding that increased it to close to $20mil with the bulk of the increase coming from the Fed Govt of the day (ALP).

Peter Minack - aka Ron Hitler-Barrassi ( frontman for TISM )
In interviews about his book, Minack revealed he was a teacher, his father fought in WWII for the Germans and that he is fanatical about the Richmond Football Club, explaining his stage moniker

People can be quick to give teenagers a bad name but not in young tennis star Ashleigh Barty's case where her only faults are the football teams she supports. How she became a fan of the Wests Tigers, Richmond and Manchester United I'll never know.

A famous old photo from the 70s ...


Australian cricket greats Rod Marsh and Dennis Lillee dressed in Richmond jumpers in 1977. Source: Herald Sun

5. LILLEE AND MARSH, RICHMOND

I’m looking at Rod Marsh in this 1977 photo and thinking he might be whispering to Dennis Lillee: “How much did Bondy say he’d pay us to wear these silly lace-up jumpers?’’ A newspaper report from the time reveals that the pair actually had a bit of kick to kick at Punt Rd Oval on the rest day of the Centenary Test, with Marsh due to resume the next day on 95 not out. When one journalist suggested the key pair were risking injury, Marsh growled back: “You could get hit by a car crossing the street.’’

Did not know this but Paul "Hoges" Hogan is a Tigers Fan. He said in a radio interview earlier this week that when he came down to Melbourne from Sydney in the 70's to start his career with GTV9, Sheeds roped him in and he has been a Tigers supporter ever since.  :thumbsup
