The Tiger Army was out in force as Richmond Football Club descended on to Holm Park Road in Beaconsfield on Tuesday 18 December for a Christmas in Cardinia open training session.

There were “don’t argues” and cries of “yellow and black” as the playing group was put through its paces in front of a large and adoring crowd.

There was entertainment for the kids and a clinic as well as Richmond looked to cement its relationship with the Cardinia region.

The usual suspects garnered most of the attention – Dusty Martin, captain Trent Cotchin, star forward Jack Riewoldt, All Australian defender Alex Rance and the new cult hero Jack Higgins.
