Universal Love Ted Richards - 250 games

[Kennedy Parker]

Ted Richards to play his 250th game this week against the Saints. Don't think I've seen a thread made for this yet and I thought he deserved a thread.

Great effort to get to 250 games and was a key pillar in our awesome 2012 defence. Really improved as a player and took his game to another level after a long stint in the reserves in the first half of 2010 and became an elite All-Australian premiership defender. At his best he was able to shut down any forward, still remember him playing an epic game against Taylor Walker in the 2012 QF.

Congratulations Big Ted, champion of the club and hope we get a big win this weekend for him.

Great servant of the club and a funny guy to boot. Let's hope we pull off a win for him.

From Ted Wood to Bloody Good!

Well done, Teddy. Your team first ethic, and stewardship over the backline rarely gets the plaudits it derserves.

Go big ted!

He's come a long way since his arrival and silenced the doubters well and truly. Premiership, AA, 250 games.... think he can feel quite proud of himself. Definitely got the most from his talents. Get a feeling he has not quite finished his highlights package yet

Been a warrior, played in the grand final and shut down Buddy whom we all loved then too, on a bung ankle

Fights hard always on blokes much bigger than him

Lets get a win for the champ

Can't believe you left out his most cherished personal achievement...the 'Golden Fist'! Shame on you

Wasn't he the inaugural winner? Trivia question answer for the ages.

 

[Nool Carpenna]

Yes... forgive me

Hmmm

He's been one of my favourite players ever since his efforts in the 2006 grand final. What a great career he's carved out for himself.
