Universal Love Thank You Jack Riewoldt - Link To Presser In OP

[SDMTiger4]

Knew it was over the minute he started wearing long sleeves

Hiding all the bandages. His banged up body from being double and triple teamed at every contest down there, must take a huge toll. Probably looks like a Mummy.

 

[Barunga Bullet]

A great career by the Sherminator

 

[jc12]

Wish he can stay on as a coach and part time player type of role tbh, would be good to have him as backup, especially how injury prone lunch is

 

[Truetiger]

The longer he was at the club, the more he matured, the greater leader he become. I still remember to the day leaving training jumping the gates at Richmond station to avoid the media lol. A tiger great, will be missed.

 

[voorhees]

club just released a heap of Jack retirement merchandise, if you are keen.
some sweet prints...I grabbed the beer holder ( looks sweet)

 

[lllscroatlll]

one of the things i love about jack is his flaws- each and every one a result of his fierceness and tenacity, his unflinching desire to get the best out of himself and his team.

the media have always come for him, calling him selfish etc but we could see something in jack that cut through all the shyte in the afl and made it all about the club and the art of footy.

he is the smartest player i have ever seen.

will miss crazy eyes

inspiring and demanding

unflinching

tiger legend

 

[Waca Jr]

End of an era. Thanks for everything Jack. Unbelievable in 2017 to carry that forward line as the solo tall

 

[Freddy Swift]

It's been a privilege to watch Jack's enormous contribution to both the Tigers and to AFL in general over so many years. What a champion career!
He's a natural in the media with his intelligence and cheeky personality, so looking forward to seeing him still contribute in many ways to the game (including the development of it in Tassie).
Congratulations to him and wishing him nothing but blue skies.

Classy post Southern, good luck for the rest of the year.

 

[Chunky09]

His stay line and career achievements are underrated outside of the rfc.

He’s been more than just a gun key forward that can take a grab, one of the smartest footballers going around and genuine match winner.

This season just again underlines how selfless a player he’s become.

We raise a to you j

Well done Jack on a great career, you will be remembered as a passionate & outstanding member of our premiership era. I hold him up there with Richo who had the hunger & passion to win, also with the hissy fits which make me laugh now that his time has come to an end. Whatever he does in the future he will succeed due to his passion that he has shown throughout his career. All the best Jack.

The longer he was at the club, the more he matured, the greater leader he become. I still remember to the day leaving training jumping the gates at Richmond station to avoid the media lol. A tiger great, will be missed.

Often tell this story. Saw him playing for Coburg in 2007 and saw him at quarter time and during the game directing blokes likes Kingsley, Schulz and Cleve Hughes (and Daniel Jackson who was playing on-ball/half forward that day), where to stand, where to lead etc. etc. All as a 19-year-old. Knew straight away he had 'leadership' written all over him and was surprised we took so long to eventually elevate him to the leadership group.
Was a leader and mature beyond his years from the day he walked into Punt Road.

I've enjoyed sticking it up friends, who always bagged him. They stopped doing it years ago.

Would be great to land another key Tassie forward to be up there alongside Jack, Royce, Richo and Disco one day.

Gotta love how JR8 was always a smart player and I'm still amazed he managed to get his toe on this one

 

[Grechy]

Remember the game against the Eagles where he kicked 10 and we knew we had a special one.

 

[k31th]

of course his 3QT torpedo goal was a fantastic bit of play and a highlight of his career

 

[Groupie_]

so hes a vb drinker

 

[domin8]

That 2017 Anzac eve game was as good as any of his. Slotting goals from the boundary in the wet during the last Qtr was epic

 

[kozi]

Gotta love how JR8 was always a smart player and I'm still amazed he managed to get his toe on this one

Surprised they didn’t pay kicking in danger

 

[k31th]

Just this season (Round 5 v Sydney) and with a head injury, he was great in these 4 plays getting 3 goals for himself and assisting Cumbo with the other.

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Goodbye Jack thanks for the joy and the fabulous memories on and off the field
True Richmond man
True Richmond Champion

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Jeez Jack could have given us all a bit more in the Pressa!!!
Your toughest oppo?!?
Funniest guy at RFC!??!
How friendly are you and the Umpires!?!?

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

so hes a vb drinker

 

[Kegs]

So much could be said about him as a player but little needs to be. His career speaks for itself. Absolute champion, a Richmond immortal. Blessed to have watched him in the yellow and black. Thanks for everything legend
