Might be because the big clubs have to keep you minnows afloat
That's right, the old 'Big 4' Richmond Tigers are struggling to pay for their redevelopment at Campaigner Road. They've been forced to plead with their supporters to chip in a couple bucks in order to fund whatever the hell they're building down there at that god-forsaken hell hole. It's a shame that most of the Tiger supporters have jumped off the bandwagon as soon as they stopped winning finals.
Maybe if you weren't spending millions over a seven-year period on potatoes like Taranto and Hooper, you could afford to build your shitty little shed.
Triggering Tiger get in here and defend your broke club...and while you're here, maybe chip in a couple of bucks from your Centrelink payments
What's old is new again...
The VFL/AFL knew which club could save them and it wasnt the magpies.
A public lottery to support the VFL was also considered and there was even a view if the VFL could just get Richmond to win more games the crowds would come back.
Saving football: New documents reveal how close the VFL came to shutting down
In 1986, the Victorian Football League came perilously close to being shut down. Thirty years on, never before seen documents reveal how close the end nearly came.

30 years ago your blooz won a premiership didn't they? Oh my bad you're a bandwagoner now.
We have a magnificent new stand to compliment our cheat ground paid by the government. Love it!
In the meantime, everyone hates the Tuggers and wouldn’t dream of giving them a leg-up. Boo-hoo!

That much? I hope not! If we need any more $ we’ll just leech it from the state government again. Not Geelong’s fault if the other clubs are too stupid to negotiate their own redevelopments properly. Idiot jelly flog muppets suffer in your jocks.I wonder how much the scats chipped in for their $340 million dollar upgrade $20 or so?

I think everyone hates the Blooze more though. Paying off umpires and brown paper bags have been in their dna from when they first even started their club.We have a magnificent new stand to compliment our cheat ground paid by the government. Love it!

Do you think they've ever legitimately won a flag?
They definitely cheated in 82 when they sent Helen Demarco out to bamboozle our players.
And they stole a flag off Geelong in 95 cheating the salary cap.
Not too mention they still haven't won anything this century and the real big 4 clubs are keeping them afloat with our generous donations to the poor.
Seems its true, crime doesn't pay?

Would I lie to you?
They knew what was needed, first club to get 1m through the gates in a season, first to 100k membership(still only 2 clubs have achieved 100k paid members) and still supporting a fair few sad arse clubs (Hi Blues, Bombers and Cats).

No doubt, you're a massive club, but to say you're bigger than Collingwood is like when John Lennon said The Beatles were bigger than Jesus.

He still is, loves the Mighty Maggies but here is the thing. He may have been able to turn water into wine, but could he kick 13 goals against Brisbane?

Do West Coast even have a salary cap? You’ve only got one good player, so your TPP is probably about tree fiddy
