I did see Royce play but it was the last couple years of his career and I'll be honest my memories are a bit fuzzy

10 is an amazingly small number ... I even left out Richo ... :'(

Very strange on your part but it is your list ;D

Strange is one word for it
If you had Richo in Jack’s era and vice versa , it wouldn’t even be a discussion
Richo had a hectare on JR8

That’s a great debate - JR8 had the foot smarts, Richo the breathtaking athleticism but honestly reckon the man would have kicked 300 or 400 more had he played for Essendon or the Roos during that period so hard to disagree!

There is one reason for Richo not making my list. It isn't really his fault, but, there's one thing that Richo didn't do that every other player on the list did ... hands on buzzers ... go!

On the contrary he kept this club somewhat competitive and alive for 17 years, almost singlehandedly bringing people through the gates to watch him play because he gave us hope. To have the career he did in the sides he played in shows why so many have him behind only Dusty

I used my criteria to make MY list & you used yours to get a different list. Problem? :-\

Zero problem, your criteria is just a crock of poo if it's based on premiership players only. You stated it, I replied

Absolutely
Gary Ablett Snr must have been rubbish as well .. no top 10 lists for him
Poor old Plugger and Bobby Skilton .. no top 10 lists either

Wow this is so hard.
In no particular order.
Hart

Dusty
Richo
Bourke
Cotchin

Jack R
Maurice Rioli Snr.
Barrott (Billy was unstoppable on his day)
Apologies to so so many champions of our club. In fact you could do a top 50 and still have plenty of champions miss out.
-
Stewart (3 brownies)
Dusty ( best finals player ever)
Hart ( Match winner)
Cotch ( selfless leader)
Richo ( freakish )
Top 5 , not ranked
And special mentions to Robbie bones Magee( best sharpie haircut and tattoos ) and Any Goodwin for scaring the poo out of Dermie

You would be hard pressed to find a Richmond supporter that doesn’t love The Flea
But better than a three time Norm Smith medalist and Brownlow winner ?

Rance
Lids
Maurice Senior
