Good on him, glad to be able to say I've tagged an AFL player;)

And took him out of the game... Remember it well.

Took him to the cleaners I heard  ;D

Left him with 1 mark, 6 possessions, goalless....

He was only ever interested in getting a good head shot for his RSVP profile.

we havent had much luck with Centre half forward,probably since royce hart(although they are big shoes to fill and the bar was set high)however it seems many of the recruits we have chosen in the past to fill that void have appeared to lack in the upstairs department ,by that i mean mental tuffness..eg hughes ,dan foley,alan edwards.Hopefully with this new edict ,that mental tuffness and being hard at it is a priority ,this will soon be rectified

We can blame Richo to a cerain extent. As good as the great man was, he did not allow any other forward to develop whilst he played the game (maybe Ottens was the exception). It was always kick it to me or I'll spit the dummy!

agree with you there Y&BB, but to me the blame for that lies as much, if not more, on his coaches, particularly early in his career.

I'm convinced Frawley's game plan was "kick to richo, he'll do the rest"

Can't have that, Richo got it kicked to him because he was a gun.

Q. Do you know how Brereton/Dunstall, Loewe/Lockett, Lucas/Lloyd, Carey/Longmire, Franklin/Roughhead formed strong forward partnerships?

A. The second bloke wasn't poo.

I agree, the fact that he is Tasmanian has much to do with why the Richo legend is so remarkable.
