Toast I'll never forget

If we had 2008 Richo out there today we win by 40 ponts

Made the Top 50 several times, including Top 5 in 1997. I can't think of another Richmond player that has done that since.

The day he kicked 10 goals against the bulldogs in 2005 I think it was, that was probably the happiest day I've ever had at the footy.

Just love him

 

[Black Saab]

Even when he missed some sitters my brother and I would just have a laugh at the comedy of it because it made up part of his charm. Totally charismatic when on song. Highly revered and respected athlete. Yellow and black champion!

Is it really 5 years ago that Terry Wallace made a clearly injured Richo fly to Sydney and play what would be his last game?

If not for that I still think Richo had at least the 2010 and 2011 seasons in him.

Really was sad that he didn't get a final game send-off.

Richo had won't he game the week before after twanging the hammy, stayed in the goal square and tied up the defence whilst unable to run. Why the hell they thought to put himthrougha whole game in that condition I don't know.
I was at the Sydney game and when Matty went off I didn't think it would be his last game, it was a dismal day, swans easily accounted for us without thrashing us, but the tragedy was Richo playing his last at the SCG instead of MCG. I feel dirty for seeing it

 

[flaps]

Richo averaged 3.05 goals a game at the MCG too (played there 152 times, 464 goals).

For some reason I thought he got to about 500. I know he ended on 800 though.

richo richo maaaaan

Franklin has left Melbourne too

That gimp wouldn't have got there anyway. Only ever beat up on shit clubs in Tassie.

Feel good about myself trolling 3 clubs in 2 sentences. Success

Richo Richo man!!! I wanna be a Richo man!!

Just out of curiosity, who won our goalkicking award in 2000? Ottens? Ben Holland? (if he was still running around?)

Matt Rogers won it with a very solid 37 goals.
Ottens kicked 30.
Holland managed 22 but was injured for a little bit.

 

[fumbler]

Big shame he only got one Final...........he was Chris Newman's other brother.

 

[brahj]

Anyone got footage of the hanger he took during State of Origin?

 

[fumbler]

Will this do?

 

[fumbler]

Remember this on the Footy Show.
At PRO




Sammy looks as tho he kicks it 15 meters where Richo's sails through post high and keeps going 20 to 30 meters behind the goals.

Thanks for the history lesson HD, wouldn't have guessed Matty Rogers won it!

Would be fascinating in a way (hope we never have to find out though) to see who would win it if Jack went down.

richo going down then jack suddenly popped up. if jack went down it could be a blessing in disguise and develop a tall forward ready for next year.

Would you expect him to take over the plane wreck?

Yeah, could be Tunksy- we were very lucky Jack stepped up to the mantle when Richo retired. One of the few good things from the Wallace years (IMO) was the decision to push Richo up the ground and let Jack play as the focal point in the forwardline.

Perhaps that is a bit of the thinking Dimma had when he tried to get Jack to push up the ground and let Vickery be the stay home full forward?

make Richo the forward coach!

for all the haters, dimma is right. its what needs to be done if we are to develop a second forward. we cant be reliant on jack. we just cant seem to kick a big score these days.
