Jack Dyer Medal night / 2014 B&F - Winner: Trent Cotchin

Martin then daylight.
To mention anybody else would be akin to misappropriation of the award.
By the way how is Jako looking this year.

Thought Jacko has been alright when he's actually got on the park

Agreed but he aint anything special let alone a B&F winner. No wait only at Richmond.

So don't be surprised when Titch wins one also in the next few years.

“David Astbury was probably winning our best and fairest before he went down. Dusty’s had an incredible season, Brandon Ellis has taken his game to the next level and we’ve found the young kid Miles, which is exciting for us,” Hardwick said.

Don’t miss your chance to be a part of the biggest and most celebrated night on Richmond’s calendar – the Jack Dyer Medal.

Join Richmond President Peggy O’Neal, CEO Brendon Gale, senior coach Damien Hardwick and the Tigers’ players and coaches, for this spectacular evening at Crown Palladium.

Will Dustin Martin go one better than last year and capture his first Jack Dyer Medal?  Will Trent Cotchin become just the eighth Tiger to win three or more Club Best and Fairest awards?  Or will young gun Brandon Ellis sweep the field to become a winner at just 21 years of age?

Be there for all the excitement of the countdown, as another name is added to the prestigious honour roll of Club champions.

Guests will be treated to an evening of entertainment, a scrumptious three-course meal and premium beverages.

Sold out in 2013, this event should not be missed!


Date: 30th September 2014

Time: 6:30PM

Venue: Crown Palladium

Price: $215 per person (Inc. GST)

edwards had a better year than Lids

[The Big Richo]

I'm sorry but Hardwick's attempt to motivate here is pathetic and hollow.

Kevin Sheedy's words that to win a premiership you need a great orator are ringing in my ears.

Dimma's speech...

"Season 2014 … how would I sum it up?

In short, the first half of the season was unacceptable, the second half of the season was admirable and the players showed great resilience – but the wash up is that we did not improve when it mattered most and that is bitterly disappointing."

"Richmond is now a strong, united, well-resourced football club. It has taken an enormous amount of hard work to deliver that outcome."

"To the Tiger Army that make this Club so strong and bold. You were sensational as always. The whole Club was amazed by your support and to see thousands travel to Adelaide was truly humbling. We are in this journey together and we look forward to seeing you in season 2015.

To have more than 66,000 members is just outstanding and it’s a fact that I know the coaches and players love sharing with people – it makes you proud to be a Tiger."
