One game wonders
« on: January 12, 2005, 04:45:51 AM »
Who have been the Tiges best ever one game wonder performance?

I remember Justin Plapp kicking 6 goals or something like that against the Blues in 98 at the 'G. Only enhanced his cult following at the time.

i think that Plappy kicked 5 on Peter Dean.

I remember James White playing a game in the seniors and looking like an absolute gun.

Never showed much after that.

The two Terrys for mine



Terry Keays played a blinder in the Pre Season Cup as his first match at Arctic Park.

The mark was on the back of the Hun


Terry Wallaces first game against Essendon in the Richmond colours was a sight.  Great game.

Bit harsh on Terry Keays, reckon he played more than one good game. I can remember him playing CHB against the Eagles at the G and getting 3 Brownlow votes. Keays could play footy !
he was well liked amongst the players . If rumours were right, The Flea and Andy Goodwin spent the night in the lock up along with his Dad at his bucks turn :shh

It's a while ago now, but I think Steven Jurica may have kicked about 5 goals against Essendon in the drawn game in 1995.

Both I think Life...must be a two game wonder... :lol

What about Justin Murphy as a Tiger? 5 Goals on debut, then about 1 goal 11 behinds in the next ten weeks... :banghead
My parents bought me a Richmond jumper and enrolled me in a junior footy clinic in 1981...look at me now.

Marty McGrath had a pretty stunning debut and just as stunning exit - 5 goals for memory.

I somehow doubt it lol - although it was fun watching the two kids in Krak and Marty have a great time.
At least the kid has something to hang his hat on!

At one game last year I thought I saw Billy Nicholls in the stands eat 7 pies and 9 hotdogs. Cetainly left me wondering.  ;)
Hopefully it's vague enough to avoid a defamation suit.  :shh

I saw Mark McQueen polish off a bowl of Ambrosia pudding (full of marshmallows and gunk lol) in one sitting.
Didn't call him the hulk for nothing me thinks!
