I don't think anyone on this forum would disagree in saying that they would love to see Richo get to 800 against the Cheatinglyingscum. :thumbsup

There is an article about Richo approaching 800 goals in today's Tassie Examiner.

Currently on 794 - Only 6 to go.

Can Richo kick another 10 against the doggies  ;D

Yes please Tucky :pray. The doggies don't have any obvious match-up for Richo. They never have. They'll probably go with Hargraves or Tom Williams you would think.

Getting there slowly. Just 5 to go for the big fella.

Hopefully he'll avoid injury this season and get the 22 more required to overtake superboot and get into the all-time top 10.

Its pretty astonishing really that he is so close to Lloyd, from just 20 or so more games given that Lloyd was and is a Dunstall style lead and mark fullforward who played for a club who had a few really good years.

Richo's been switched between so many positions and asked to do so much - when Carey was at his peak in around 97-99 there was a season where he was outdoing Carey at CHF for a period.

To me he seems the last of the old style of footballers. Plays passionately and speaks his mind.

Eat 'em alive big fella

Richo needs to kick just one goal against the Swannies to bring up the 800 goal milestone.
