    I hate that these announcements get leaked so early. Players, especially of Richo's ilk and standing, deserve to break the news themselves.

    It was great watching you Richo

    Richo to call it quits

    Damn, not the biggest Richo supporter but he was truly a champion of the game. Comes as a big shock to me because he looked certain to play on next year, but it seems kind of fitting that he is giving it up the same year as Matthew Lloyd.

    One of those rare players that was great entertainment no matter how he was playing.

    Hmm, cant think of a single reason to watch Richmond now.

    Agree with 45hg,should be the one to break the news.

    Always liked Richo.

    I do wonder though how many of these grief stricken Tigers supporters on talkback this evening, are the same ones calling for Richo to be traded barely 3 or 4 years ago

    Should we pick him up in the PSD?

    The Tiges are at the same stage as we were @ the time of the sacking of Daniher.

    They are in for a major rebuild from here on. Good luck to them at this woe full time of the draft.

    Sorry to see you go Richo.

    Love watching him.

    Vastly underrated and should be particularly commanded for sticking with the Tigers, when lets face it, they're [censored] and he isn't.

    Good luck to him in the future, he has a few businesses and no doubt he will also end up in the media.

    He retires as a one club player, unlucky that due to injuries he didn't play 300 and a nice guy.

    Agreed.

    And he is indeed a lovely guy, who definitely doesn't always get the respect he deserves as a player. Had he played for Collingwood/Carlton/Essendon you can bet he'd be considered one of the greats of the modern era.

    Hahaha...ha...that was a joke right?

    Well, with Richo out of the picture my money is on the Tiggies taking out the spoon this year.

    Hats off to Richo, will go down as an all time Richmond great.

  • Quote

    Ah Richo, Class player, class bloke, class act. My fav player outside of the Dees. will miss u mate. he'll be brilliant in the media though

  • Quote

    282 games. Loved watching him. Unfortunately had to go out this way. All the best to him.

    See you round the Wood for a coffee champ.

    Waiting for Richo's response... :unsure:

    Yes. Let's face it.

    I only just came to this conclusion too. ;)

    Richo will go down as one of the greats, He always tore us apart. At least Richmond will be able to add something to their trophy cabinet next year even if its made of wood !!

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
