:( Favourite non-Melbourne player!!!! A champion!!! the AFL won't be the same without him
Tomorrow.

really ? a bid sad :( ... a fair dinkum player ol' Richo. One of those from other teams I quite admire.

 

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


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.

Honestly even though he hardly played this year he will be missed, my whole familys richmond ...so i watch a fair few richmond games will miss richo.

 

Ch 9 Broke it of course!! Richo you are a true Legend of the modern game, & a Top Bloke. He will work on TV though i bet-Natural.

See you round the Wood for a coffee champ.

I actually heard it on channel 7.


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?

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

yeah taking the [censored]...

Seriously though, Thoughts? :lol:


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.

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

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 !!

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
