Richo will play 300 games: Caro

[one-eyed]

Caro was on 3AW just before 7pm.

She said she believes Richo will play on next year and reach the magical 300.

I have a vision of Richo playing until his body collapses and they have to peel him off the MCG, after about 450 games odd played

[Hellenic Tiger]

In all honesty if Richo stays injury free he could play 3 more seasons including finals assuming the teams upward trend continues and realistically he could get closer to 350 than 300.

Currently on 276
Turns 34 on Thursday
With the engine he has could play till 2011 which would make him 36.
22 games a season = 66 more
2-3 finals a season a possibility

350 or 351 with no injuries 

With nigging injuries somewhere between 330-350.

Would be 2nd on the all time games played list for the Tiges. 

[Francois Jackson]

no other player deserves it more than him.

Ive said it before if we had 21 players with an engine and a heart like him we would have won flags in the last 20 years.

His last day would bring a tear to my eye it must be said.

The perfect dream scenario would be Richo winning the flag in his 300th after all the frustration of only one finals series in 16 years.

Daniel I tend to agree. I would have to bring the kleenex with me that day. Love the big fella
and for me the game will be much the poorer.

your not the first to make that comment daniel and I doubt you'll be the last

It will be a sad day for the RFC and footy

But all things going well he'll be around for a while yet

Absolute champion

[1965]

I don't want much from Richo.

Win us a flag, play 300+ games, retire and start producing some off spring.

If he started the same age as Blingers we'd have Richo jnr in the U18s by now lol. Then again we haven't much luck with Father-Sons since Joel and Richo  .

What about Shane Tuck?

Not ashamed to say it will be on the cards here also.

No reason he can not play at least another 3 years even 'pinch hitting' off the bench would be a big danger to any side, I am talking down the track here! not this year.

[Francois Jackson]

What he achieved last year was unbelievable IMO.

It just shows what kind of machine he is and what he could have been if he was played like a Adam Goodes. Everywhere.

He was played out of position all his life.

He is a champion and any fool who says the opposite doesn't understand Football and should follow Bocce
