Another Richmond record attendance figure appears almost certain to be smashed at the MCG this Saturday, when the Tigers play host to Brisbane.

This comes hot on the heels of the all-time record crowd for a Richmond v Hawthorn match of 64,324, which was set at the MCG last Saturday.

The best-ever crowd for a Richmond v Brisbane clash was two years ago – Round 6, 2011 – with 37,438 seeing the Tigers prevail by 26 points.

That total topped the previous best of 37,032, which was established in the 2001 preliminary final at the Gabba.

33,684 – Round 9, 2005 at the Gabba.
