Richmond Football Club History

• Richmond is considered one of the "big four" Melbourne clubs.
• Between 1967 and 1980 Richmond has won five premierships.
• In 1972, the Tigers were the first sporting team in Australia to attract one million paying spectators in a season.
• For more than a decade the club has struggled to get back to its financial position without being able to gather sustained financial success.
