276 Premierships would be a record that would stand for a while!?!?!?!?

Dimma said post-game that Sheds has been banged up all year and is hanging tough for us at the moment.

Sheds has pulled up sore after the game last night. So potentially another one who could miss next week  .

Hardwick was optimistic Edwards (ankle) would miss just one week.

Dimma today talking about Sheds:

He's important and he comes back injury-free, too," Hardwick said.

"Shane's had one of those years where he's played some games but he's been banged-up, to be honest, so we look forward to having him back at his best, but it might take a week or two for him to hit his very best form.

"We know when he's playing his very best footy we're certainly a better team for it. He'll play some midfield and some forward.

"He's such an important player (because) he makes everyone around him better, as well. It's a big win for us to have him back."

Triple Richmond premiership star Shane Edwards will be inducted as an AFL Life Member at the competition's Annual General Meeting in March for his services to Australian Football.

Shane Edwards
* 281 premiership games and 22 pre-season games played for Richmond, kicking 187 goals.
* 3 x Premiership Player 2017, 2019, 2020
* All Australian, 2018
* State of Origin game, 2020

Richmond President Peggy O’Neal said it was a well-deserved honour for the 33-year-old, who is one of 11 players and officials set to be inducted.

"I remember Shane’s first game when he came to the Club in 2007, and it is a testament to his talent and durability for him now to be awarded AFL life membership for playing 300 AFL games - and he’s still going strong," O’Neal said.

"Shane’s leadership on and off the ground is outstanding, and he is a most deserving recipient of AFL Life Membership. None of us doubt that the Club is so much better because Shane is at Tigerland."

I was harsh on him as a kid but gee whizz he has been a fine servant of the club. Very underrated and a deserving AA.

Deserves to get to 300+ and be remembered as a key cog in our dynasty.

same Andy.

I was up there in the bagging stakes of him.

It goes to show how important coaching and development is. It took until 2017 for the club to realise how good his hands were and the team had to move faster and be more aware of his crafty handballs.

Love me some Sheds. I’m glad he silenced his critics since he had that 2016 dip post broken fibula/wrist

[camboon]

I’ve got a few wrong , always thought Griff would step up but was a fan of  Tich since the draft highlights - the goal in the highlights gets a special mention
