Who should be on Richmond's Mount Rushmore?By SEN
5 June 2020Bob Murphy and Andy Maher have named their ‘Mount Rushmore’ for Richmond.
For those unaware, they are ranking the top four people (players, coaches or others) who symbolise the heart, soul and the spirit, those who have ignited the imagination and enhanced the foundation of the clubs they have represented – in Andy’s words. The four people who tell the story of the football club - in Bob's words.
They're not necessarily just the four best players the club has ever had.
Murphy and Maher put out a poll to determine the final member, having agreed on the first three.
