Can we do it after the game? We're no good at these types of games!

About time the team changes that weak mentality in big games. Hopefully Hardwick reminds the cubs that footy careers go quickly - just ask Richo - and don't take anything for granted beginning round 1 against the archenemy.

Round 1 tribute to Richo (Herald-Sun)
« Reply #258 on: December 13, 2009, 06:00:35 AM »
from today's Herald-Sun
Glenn McFarlane | December 13, 2009


ESSENDON will rename one end of Etihad Stadium in honour of champion goal-kicker Matthew Lloyd for its home games from next season.

And the Bombers will take a public vote via its website to identify another past great to have his name emblazoned at the other end.

The decision comes as Richmond, Geelong and Collingwood seek ways to honour recently retired stars Matthew Richardson, Tom Harley and Anthony Rocca early next season.

Richmond will use its Round 1 clash with Carlton - the AFL's season opener - to farewell Richardson, one of its most famous sons.

"We expect our Round 1 clash against our traditional rivals Carlton to be a sea of yellow and black to honour one of the greats of our club," chief executive Brendon Gale said.

"It will also be a terrific opportunity for Matthew to acknowledge his fans and supporters. We aim to fill the MCG and expect the Punt Road end to be rocking."

The club is confident of attracting a massive crowd to the match, with Richo as the centrepiece one last time.

Richo's still king of the kids  :D



Footy greats visit local schools
JENNY GIBSON
10 Sep, 2010

Warrnambool may have been in the grip of some strange weather yesterday, but hundreds of kids were thrilled to find stars shining at Warrnambool Primary School.

A bevy of former and current AFL players descended on the city as part of the Toyota Good For Footy Tour and pupils from district schools were impressed with their form.

Former Collingwood and Footscray champion goalkicker Brian Taylor and ex-St Kilda hardman and Richmond coach Danny Frawley were joined by Tigers' skipper Chris Newman and former teammate Matthew Richardson, former Adelaide captain Mark Riccuito and Essendon veterans Dustin Fletcher and Mark McVeigh for a clinic, thanks to Warrnambool Toyota.

With footy finals fever upon us, the pupils were also treated to a view of the official replica AFL premiership cup.

And make sure at least the first 3 are boys before he flips to the darkside.

As a kid born in the 90s there wasn’t much to look forward to every weekend other than seeing this absolute legend strut his stuff
