Allegations that a Richmond supporter racially abused Western Bulldogs player Lin Jong, during last Saturday’s match at the MCG, were brought to the Club's attention today.

The Club subsequently followed up the complaint with the MCC. 

The Club was advised that police had followed up the complaint, but could not substantiate the allegation, and no further action was taken.

"As a Club, we take any suggestion of racist behaviour very seriously, and we followed it up accordingly," said Richmond CEO Brendon Gale.

"While no action was taken in this case, it is a reminder that any such behaviour is totally unacceptable and as a Club we will not tolerate it. 

"Lin Jong is a fine young player and we should be celebrating the diversity he brings to our game."

The Club can also confirm that a Richmond player sought out security and identified a supporter making homophobic remarks during the game.

Victoria Police and security attended, and the person was subsequently removed from the venue.
