200 games is a lot of games. You have to be having an enourmous laugh about Contin.

For mine, Deledio, Cotchin, Martin and Riewoldt would be a good result. I'd pretty much expect that to happen, barring mishap. Newman should get there. Other than that I'd be reasonably confident about Astbury and Morton.

IMO....(Barring injury - touch wood!!!!)
 
Here's my list

Thurstfield : Has a career 67 games, may not even make 100
Deledio # :Yes
Reiwoldt # :Yes
Cotchin :Yes, if his body holds up may go even further
Edwards : Maybe, probably around 100-150
Newman : Already has 175 games, is 28
Morton : Maybe, probably around 100-150
Tuck : 130 games, 29 in December won't play 200 games
Vickery
Martin # :Definately
Post :
Foley: If his body holds up
Dea #
Taylor

Lol at Dea and Contin both playing 300
 
Deledio is the only one on our list that is even on par to getting 300. 250 is the new 300. Footballers just dont have the game-life like they used to with clubs chasing ever-youth.

Martin, its too early to tell.

Cotchin.. injuries determine his future.

Foley will be a machine if he makes 200

Reiwolt is a different kettle of fish. Hasnt missed many but he will get more and more heavy handed attention. Only one of those 'attentions' could mean a shoulder or a knee that is an ongoing career problem.

I guess that's why we value youth in today's game. The shining lights are usually unhampered by degenerative or constant injury.

Look at Foley.. 2 years ago he was a machine, but he was also 2 years younger.

haha, 200 games is a fine achievement, having all those guys with 200 games would mean we are extremely good or extraordinarily mismanaged the list...

i mean dea has hardly even pulled on the boots for the tigs...but i suppose leigh brown and dean rice got to 200 and beyond

300 will be gone in the next 10 years or so, game is too fast, clubs in recent history have had 1 or 2 300 gamers per decade let alone that many..
 
Rusty, if all those players make it to 200 games and some 300, we will win 10 flags in a row.

I think it's more like, if we win 10 flags in a row, all those players make it to 200 games... probably more.

Optimistic thinking Rusty, but we'd take it.

Problem with that???

"After 30 years of turmoil the Richmond Football Club has amassed an amazing 10th straight flag today. Superstar Brett Deledion (33) today announced his retirement from AFL after playing his 378th game, winning his 4th norm smith medal and 7th brownlow medal earlier this week. Absolute legend of the game. More than 1,000,000 fans are expected to arrive at punt road as post-match celebrations rage into the night."

Tuck, slight chance of hitting 200 games. He's going to be 29 in December and he's got approximately the same number of games as Deledio but Deledio is only 23.
Tuck = 130 games
Deledio = 128 games

Foley has a slim chance now that he's not fit but he'll definitely break 150 games.

Post, no chance. He's wasted 2 or 3 years of his football career and only got 14 games under his belt.

Thursfield and Morton would need to be guns to get that many consecutive games. Probably only hit about 100 - 170 games.

not sure some of those potential 300 gamers but for sure deledio, martin and riewoldt
