The Richmond FC is a great club with a storied history.
Its a club thats produced some of the greatest names the game has seen. Hart, Bartlett, Bourke, Dyer, Thorp, Clay, Wright, Morris the list can go on and on and I didnt include the great coach that was Tom Hafey who oversaw us winning 4 flags. We have had great administrators including Ray Dunn and Graeme Richmond irrespective of how the last left us after the trading wars with Collingwood.
But they all have one thing in common ... whilst being great, whilst being premiership winners whilst being some of the biggest names the game has ever seen they couldnt achieve one thing.
They never Three Peated.
Our players in 2021 have a chance to do something never done before. They have a chance to create history never seen or done before. They have a chance to be a part of a squad that becomes the first group of players to win 3 in a row and take a very special place in our clubs history.
This is like climbing everest, the matterhorn and every other huge mountain in the season. The impossible dream that could just be possible. I hope our players can dream big dreams and do big things because if they do this in 2021 they will all be regarded as Richmond greats and they will finally be the group that does what Hart Bartlett Bourke and co. Couldnt do. A fourth Tiger Premiership in 5 year and a 3peat. What a way that would be to finish season 2021.
