If you could nominate any time in Richmond’s rich history to go back in time to witness what would it be?

A match where Jack Dyer is playing. Love to have seen him play live.

Probably the 1943 GF

The 1980 Grand Final, because it was in colour.

1982 GF - to stop  Helen D'Amico.... :shh

..or any board meeting between 75 & 84 - to stop Graham Richmond & Ian Wilson :shh :shh


...or 1995 to stop Mal Brown and the coterie wankers..... :shh :shh :shh

...or 1999 & 2004 to stop the apponitments of Frawley & Wallace.... :shh :shh :shh :shh


...or most drafts between 2000 & 2015 ...to stop our list managers and Miller & Hackson.... :shh :shh :shh :shh :shh

The story goes that the Tigers discovered Coleman before the Bombers did, and had all but signed him. Then one of our committee at the time went shooting their mouth off at a pub where it was overhead by a Bombers committee member, and the rest is history.  I'd go back and strangle that twit for starters.

Alternatively, I'd go back to 1981 and convince Stephen Michael, who I have it on good authority had committed to joining us with Maurice Rioli, and get him to come over. He didn't, and I have no doubt we would have won the '82 flag if he had been on our team.

I'd go back in time and save our players from WAT telling them not to watch the ball onto their boot when kicking
I work in Africa and they were taking the pee out of me for saving Africa.......

at the end of it.
