A bit of light relief on this board is needed.
2021 Grand final and we're going for a 3peat.
What a fairytale year it would be for returning legend of the club Mathew Richarson who was coaxed out of retirement mid year due to the 1yr suspension of Tom Lynch for being Tom Lynch.
With less than 15 secs in the match Noah Balta plays on from full back and kicks a bullet pass to chf we're over the pack ala Micheal Disco Roach comes Dusty Martin(is there anything this bloke can't do?).But wait he's actually knocked himself out meaning the closet team mate will have to take the kick.
OMG! The 2 closest players are none other than the comeback kid Richo & George. o_O
Going for a 3peat here.
It's outside 50, def Richo. Anywhere inside 40 and give it to Georgie (who runs around after the siren but the ump blows the whistle as he has played on)

We're down by 2pts late in the 4th Qtr of a GF

This is not a time for "fun"

kick it to Dusty - end of thread , if Richo is playing we know its as a decoy for Dusty

but as sort of being hinted at the coaching staff need to develop a set play where George drifts into the back line
and Short & Houli are tasked getting it to him and in enough space to start a run
He'll then runs a couple of figure 8's , sucks in half the opposition and their chasing him like a Benny Hill skit
its heart in mouth stuff , but the ball popps out to Baker , his raking left boot finds Chol in the square , GOAL

we then ram on another 5 goals because the opposition are gassed out from chasing George and history forgets the GF was close
cos all they see is the final scores

Hocking announces a raft of new rules changes , Gill greets Dusty with a "not you again " when recieving the Norm Smith
 
Ideally we are playing the filth. Richo fakes a pulled hammy, George faints at the thought of the pressure of the moment. Next in line. Cotchy in his last ever game, dodgy hammys and all, 45 metres out and BANG, straight over the goal umpires head, the fairytale 3peat complete for the 4th flag in 5 years. Cotch written in Richmond folklore as our greatest captain ever. 🐯

Except that Dylan Grimes, having crept forward in stealth mode is found on by the ARC to have been 0.25mm closer than any other Richmond player and is given the kick.

He goes back and lines up for his 4th career goal...
 
I find the lack of faith in Richo disturbing and understandable.

I would pick George because Richo is likely to do a hamstring. After George kicks the goal and the siren goes my favourite part would be that Richo is there on the ground and part of our premiership-winning team. Would have loved that for him.
