Richmond - The AFL's Biggest Merchandise Seller ...Again (Congratulations Champs!)

[Tzatziki_Man]

They represent 5% of the competition.

Yet sold 15% of the competitions merchandise and have 10% of the leagues members.

Fans of the RFC have been left frustrated by the lack of premiers merchandise this year due to Covid yet have once again blown all other clubs out the water. Selling more than DOUBLE the merchandise of Collingwood and West Coast proving premiership fatigue doesn't exist if its a premiership of Richmond's.

Aside from GWS and Gold Coast, Adidas must be left fuming cause Hawthorn only equal 2.5% of all merchandise sold - 3rd last in the comp and worst performed Victorian side.

thank you for your consideration

Even now that Richmond are winning flags their fans still post embarrassing stuff like this looking for attention.

Oooh love me... pathetic.

 

[Gralin]

I just want to know why the AFL article didn't have a bloody ladder in it

 

[Quivorir]

Cool.

 

[sprockets]

Representing 5% of the competition but selling 15% of merchandise clearly means opposition supporters are buying 10%! I couldn't imagine drinking my morning coffee from a Carlton cup or having my goolies rubbing up against Collingwood jocks but each to their own.

Just quietly going about the business.

Carrying the weight of the 'Big 4' on our broad shoulders - preserving its integrity and prestige - while the other 3 members continually disgrace themselves and/or wallow in decades long mediocrity.

Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.

Brooke knitting beanies? Very helpful but degrading work for a person of her stature.

 

[spudmaster]

Think you'll find Hawks fans have enough threepeat apparel to last for the foreseeable future.

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

Waiting for the Roy Morgan poll to tell us Richmond have less supporters than St.Kilda yet sell more merch than West Coast and Collingwood COMBINED

...

Because it’ll show the expansion clubs dead last

Premiers sell merch, well woop-dee-doo Basil.

Unm.. weren't we second.

I thought it's because they don't make on-field apparel to fit budgies.

 

[Shane Heard]

spellbinding news...tell us more

for instance..how many fridge magnets sold ?

 

[captain blood 17]

Pffffft, figures wreak of #VICBIAS. If Richmond supporters had to buy their stuff interstate like others do no way they sell more. Gil looking after his pet team again.

Well actually three peat Premiers from 2013-2015 dont sell.

Don't sell at all.

Poor Adidas. Thought they bought a zebra, but it was a donkey sprayed in black and white.

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

Unm.. weren't we second.

Kinda like how the guy who loses to Nadal at the French.

Technically second, but not close

 

[kickazz]

If each of the 18 clubs had equal representation then that would be 5.5555555555% each

So you say Richmond represent 5%, which is thus a below average size club?

Hmmm.

 

[Dr Tigris]

Strange but perhaps insightful statistic.

Go Tiges

 

[Beerfish]

decades long mediocrity

Get back to me when it's been 37 years of mediocrity..

 

[TeeJay Blue]

Ah yes!

The same person who complained about a Carlton thread on the main board regarding the setting of new records and wiping out a historical debt, takes time to post a Richmond thread on the main board (to make it ∞ Richmond threads), gloating about his club winning the predictable title of best merch-seller after a period of multiple premierships.

Who woulda thunk it?

Beyond half way now...
