Official Club Stuff Questions/suggestions for RFC_Official (part 2)

[Tigersman]

Great question and ever better timing. The Membership Team are coming to the end of a 3121 pre-sell campaign for 2013 and will next week turn their attention to Maurice Rioli Club. You are right on the money when you say that this membership is now highly demanded. We have around 300 Maurice Rioli memberships left available (assuming everyone from 2012 renews) and once the quota is exhausted the club will start a waiting list. Communication will go out next week but anyone who wants MR Club added to their membership renewal can call the club immediately on 1300 742 466. If you add MR Club and you are on the Committed Tiger monthly payment plan, you are guaranteed a spot for 2013.

Im a MR club member currently and Im considering upgrading to 3121. theyve sent me a couple of text messages about it.If I was to upgrade then decided to step back down in membership in a year or two, would i still be assured of a MR club renewal?

Also, other than a seat, what does 3121 membership give me that my current 22 game membership and MR club doesnt?

Thanks

Hey RFCO. A couple of comments have been made on another thread about the cheersquad and their chants. Is there any chance the club might run a promotion/ competition for the best New chant/ cheer ?. In conjunction with the cheers squad. Just thinking out loud . Could be a great supporter/club membership promotion.

Too early to know when

Stiggy, what's the clubs stance on social media?
I know players are on Twitter, I follow a few personally.
But has the club set guildlines and rules about it and Facebook and could you shed light on them?

We have a social media policy for players and staff, it's as you'd imagine it to be.

Stig, a question for you
How did you get into the role your doing?
Were you a Tigers fan growing up?

any sort of video footage of Cotchin or the other tiger players except Jackson at the brownlow?

 

[DrMike]

Going to go out on a limb here and say a lot of fans had no idea how much Jackson is involved in outside of AFL. Will there be a video on him some time soon? Would love to hear his story.

In the past he hasnt wanted to make a big deal out of it, so we'll see.

Tell him to stop being so selfish and to think of others for once!

Thought the presser he did was really good but would love to see him showing off the organisations he supports. Don't think there can ever be enough advertising for these kinds of organisations.

 

[Bird Man]

We have a meeting planned shortly.

Anything you want to see?

Sneaky getting us to do ur job for you ! i joke ... would LOVE ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see Dimmas little speeches before and after the game like round one or Indigenous round and important games would froth on that

We don't film those.

i know .. what i am saying is you should ... The NBA dose it NFL and NRL do it ... why cant we ? I think the fans diserve this insight into the club, they buy memberships and wipe away the debt of said club. Big clubs give insights to the fans who invest financially and emotionally to the club and The Richmond foot ball club dosent want to do this ?

The members and Fans are the club not the board or the players

A lot of clubs prefer this stuff to stay in house - pre game is discussing tactics, and these may be used in later weeks. Post game may be VERY negative towards certain players, and definitely is not the stuff a united club would be wanting to put out there.

thats what editing is for

 

[yoko_bono]

You would be left with 30 seconds of silence.

 

[Ned_Flanders]

thats what editing is for

but thats what people want to hear.

the days of the rah rah rah pre game speeches are pretty much done apparently, and if its not rousing, and its not controversial, why watch?

post game is too much in house info, no way they will ever allow that out.

well if the tigers wanted to be bold and dedicated to its members then thats a way to do it ... just want more from the club that i put my money into and if players get 400k a year then i think they can handle getting sprayed on roar vision .. other codes do

it just seem its The Foot Ball Club and Its members.. when it should be The Richmond football club as one not separate

What evidence has their been of the club taking is membership for granted? Their access and connection to us has been better than ever, and better than what most clubs do, yet you are not happy?

Also the footy depts job is first and foremost to win games, and if keeping internal reviews internal helps this, they should be keeping it in house. Our priority is winning games, not making YouTube videos

 

[TheLoungeLizard]

Stig - Would it be possible to have why players changing numbers listed?
Just an article saying something like "I chose number 11 (EXAMPLE) because my father wore it when he played, before he died and I'm keeping the tradition going"
Would love to also know who's in a mind to change.

Just on this, I'm one of the first people in the room to say "we should film this" believe me. A lot of the players and coaches watch Hard Knocks from the US, and they all love it.....their reaction to doing it here typically is that it wouldnt work. Imagine being in the room when telling a player is delisted.

We filmed after the last game of the year against Port, but as a group we decided for now it's best to keep it in house.
