Richmond has declared ‘The Hunt is On’ in 2018, as the Tigers launch their membership campaign ahead of the upcoming AFL season.

The Club launched its new membership campaign that will feature a series of short videos that narrate the similarities between tigers of the animal kingdom, and the Richmond team and its supporters.

The video documents and observes fierce tigers in the wild, Richmond’s fighting and relentless spirit, along with the Club’s loyal and united army of supporters.

“Our members and supporters are a powerful force of this football club,” Richmond CEO Brendon Gale said.

“The Tiger Army have been with us on a great journey for a long time, and we were all able to celebrate together last year during our finals campaign and premiership win.”

The Club is aiming to reach an AFL membership record of 90,000 members in 2018.

“We know it’s a big membership target, but we want as many of our fans as possible to be with us on this journey - it really is something special to be part of the Richmond Football Club.”

There is added excitement to the Round 1 Thursday night blockbuster against rivals Carlton, when Richmond will unfurl the premiership flag in front of a packed MCG crowd.

“That’s going to be a really special moment for our Club and our fans when we can once again acknowledge the premiership, and then crack in to the start of a new and exciting season,” Gale said.

Round 1 is expected to be a sell-out, with only 2018 members likely to have access to tickets.

To guarantee entry to the game, the Club strongly encourages fans to join or renew as members before February 28.

Season 2018 will also feature the marquee ANZAC Day Eve and Dreamtime at the ‘G matches, as well as blockbuster games against Collingwood, Geelong and Hawthorn.
