Congrats Richo  . Over the last couple of years the champ is finally getting the recognition he much deserves from the whole footy community. Hopefully now with young talented group coming through he can see some team success to repay him for all those years of loyalty before he retires. An injury free year plus finals could see him reach the 300 AFL games this year  .

If this were to happen, it would be bigger than the Crawford story last year (well to me anyway!)
Richo stands for just about everything that is good in our great game.
A man of the people, build with incredible athletic ability that has brought some of my favourite football highlights.

Chris Judd could do not better than to sit down, have a coffee with Richo to understand what loyalty and passion means to a football club (and Juddy might be able to tell him a thing or two about how to invest his football income!!!).
